What MyGhanaOnline stores on your device, why, and how to control it.
What we set
This is the complete list. We do not use analytics or social-media tracking cookies.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
mco_session | First-party cookie | Keeps you signed in and protects forms against cross-site request forgery. | When you close your browser |
mco-notification | Browser storage | Remembers which notifications you have already seen. | Until you clear site data |
mco-gallery-view | Browser storage | Remembers whether you prefer the grid or slideshow photo layout. | Until you clear site data |
The two browser-storage items are kept on your own device and are never sent to our servers.
Which of these need your consent
mco_session is strictly necessary: without it you could not sign in and our forms could not be protected. It carries no advertising or tracking function, so it does not require consent.
This site currently sets no advertising or tracking cookies at all. If that changes, you will be asked for consent first where the law requires it, and this page will be updated beforehand.
Turning cookies off
Every browser lets you block or delete cookies and clear site storage, usually under Settings then Privacy. Blocking mco_session will stop you from signing in, but the rest of the site will still work.
