These files are essential for many modern websites to function properly and provide personalized experiences. Cookies can be either temporary, lasting only for your current session, or persistent, remaining on your device for extended periods. We use cookies to track your learning progress, remember your language preference settings, and maintain your session while you explore our Portuguese language courses and cultural content.
Types of Cookies We Use
We utilize several categories of cookies to optimize your experience on our platform:
- Essential cookies enable core functionality such as user authentication, session management, and security features necessary for our language learning platform to operate.
- Performance cookies collect anonymous data about how you navigate our site, which pages you visit, and how long you spend on each section, helping us understand user behavior patterns.
- Functional cookies remember your preferences, such as your selected language variation between Brazilian Portuguese and European Portuguese, your course level, and your saved bookmarks.
- Analytics cookies track aggregated usage statistics that help us improve our course content, identify popular topics, and enhance the overall learning experience.
How We Use Cookies
We employ cookies for multiple important purposes on our platform. First, we use them to maintain your login session and ensure your security while accessing course materials and CELPE-Bras preparation resources. Second, cookies help us personalize your experience by remembering your language preferences, course progress, and conversation practice history. Third, we analyze cookie data to understand which course sections are most valuable, where learners encounter difficulties, and how to improve our Lusophone cultural exchange programs. Fourth, functional cookies enable us to provide recommendations for relevant courses and materials based on your learning journey and interests in Brazilian Portuguese or other Portuguese variations.

If you choose to disable cookies entirely, you may not be able to fully utilize features such as course progress tracking, saved preferences, and conversation practice sessions. We recommend enabling at least essential and functional cookies to ensure optimal access to our Portuguese courses, CELPE-Bras exam preparation, and cultural exchange resources.
