Cookie Policy.

Cookies and browser storage used for navigation and account access.

Public browsing and language

We do not use advertising or analytics cookies. Choosing a language changes the page URL rather than creating a cookie or stored language preference. The selected language stays with public links and page refreshes; a URL without a language selection displays English.

Navigation storage

The session storage entry tsr-scroll-restoration-v1_3 remembers navigation keys and scroll positions so you can return to your place when moving back and forward. It lasts for the browser tab session and is not used for advertising or profiling.

Necessary account authentication cookies

The first-party pp_auth cookie, sometimes split into numbered parts, maintains your requested account session. It is restricted to this hostname, inaccessible to page scripts and transmitted securely on the published website. It lasts up to thirty days in the browser and is renewed during session refresh. A short-lived pp_auth-code-verifier cookie supports secure authentication links. Signing out clears the current session cookies. These cookies are not used for tracking.

Your browser controls

You can delete cookies and session storage using your browser controls. Clearing authentication cookies ends access in that browser; clearing navigation storage resets scroll restoration. The former preview and acceptance cookies no longer grant access.

Independence from public authorities

PortugalPermit is an independent company, not affiliated with the Portuguese Government, AIMA, IRN or the Portuguese consular network.

Decisions and processing times rest with the competent authorities. PortugalPermit does not promise approvals or faster processing.
