Cookie Policy
Last updated: 31 August 2026
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently.
2. Which cookies we use
Our website and the Paideus platform use strictly necessary cookies only, meaning cookies without which the website and the platform cannot function. Specifically:
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
EDUCORE_LOCALE | Remember the selected language (Greek / English) | 1 year |
next-auth.session-token / __Secure-next-auth.session-token | Keep the user signed in to the platform (session) | 1 hour (renewed with use) |
next-auth.csrf-token / __Host-next-auth.csrf-token | Protection against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) | Expires when the browser is closed |
keycloak_issuer | Temporary storage of the identity provider during sign-in | 5 minutes |
Sign-in to the platform is handled by an identity provider (Keycloak). That provider may set its own strictly necessary cookies on its own domain (not on the Paideus website domain), solely for secure authentication.
We do not use analytics/statistics cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party cookies for tracking.
3. Why we do not ask for consent
Under Article 4(5) of Greek Law 3471/2006 and the guidelines of the Hellenic Data Protection Authority, strictly necessary cookies are exempt from the consent requirement, because they are needed to provide a service explicitly requested by the user (for example signing in to the platform or choosing a language). For that reason we do not display a consent banner. If we add other categories of cookies in the future, we will obtain your consent first and update this Policy.
4. How to manage cookies
You can configure your browser to block or delete cookies. Note, however, that if you block strictly necessary cookies, you will not be able to sign in to or use the platform. Cookie-management instructions are available on the support pages of each browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge).
