Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser. We use a few that the site needs to work, and, only if you agree, some that help us measure and improve our outreach. You choose in the banner when you first visit, and you can change your mind at any time.
Essential cookies (always on)
The site cannot work without these, so they do not need your consent.

XSRF-TOKEN | Security: stops other websites from submitting forms in your name. | Same as the session |
remember_web_… | Keeps you signed in on this device if you tick "Remember me". | Up to about a year, or until you sign out |

These tell us which pages help people apply and where they get stuck. The figures are combined; we do not use them to identify you.

Advertising cookies (only with your consent)
These measure whether our adverts on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok bring in applications, and help show them to young innovators who are likely to apply. We never send these platforms your name, email or phone number.

Things saved in your browser that are not cookies
Some features save small notes in your browser's own storage. They never leave your device.
- Your application draft, so you do not lose your answers if the page reloads. It is cleared once your application is submitted.
- Your accessibility settings (text size, contrast and so on).
- Pop-ups you have closed, so we do not show them again too soon.
Controlling cookies in your browser
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block essential cookies you will not be able to sign in or apply.
