What cookies we use
The Athenaeum's public website uses a small number of essential cookies required for the site to function. These include a session cookie and, where applicable, a cookie recording your consent to non-essential cookies.
No analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking cookies are used on this site. The institution does not sell or share browsing data.
Managing cookies
You can control cookie behaviour through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may affect site functionality. The Athenaeum does not require you to accept non-essential cookies to use the public surface.
Questions
Questions about how the Athenaeum handles web data should be directed to the Registrar. The Privacy and Data Notice (MA-POL-001) describes broader data handling practices.
The Athenaeum notes, for the avoidance of confusion, that the cookie notice covers only the public website. It does not extend to collections systems, custody records, frame registers, or the ontological survey database, none of which use cookies.
