<h3 id="explanation">How do you know my native preferred language?</h3>

  <p>With each web resource requested, your browser sends an HTTP header
that indicates your language preference as configured by you or by
your system administrator. Our server reacts to this
header by providing all web pages in the requested language, if an
appropriate translation exists; otherwise, the original
English page is served.</p>

<p>This control panel can be used to override this preference and impose
any arbitrary language over your browser's default setting. For
example, you could choose <em>English</em> to browse www.gnu.org even if
your browser is set to Danish. This feature uses a technical cookie called
“session cookie.”</p>
<p>You're right that the language setting of your browser can be used
by some sites or third parties to identify your specific browser and
target you for advertising.
<a href="https://torproject.org/" rel="nofollow">Tor Browser</a>
provides the safest way we know to avoid such targeting.
Nevertheless, the GNU project only uses technical cookies, and only
to make browsing easier for you. We have no interest
in collecting data about your browsing sessions.</p>

<p>We also do not track the IP addresses of our visitors and the site
itself is mostly made of static pages which can be used with JavaScript
limited or disabled. Rest assured that the GNU project and the FSF are
very careful about <a
href="https://www.fsf.org/about/free-software-foundation-privacy-policy">
users' privacy</a>.

     Either "2001, 2002, 2003" or "2001-2003" are ok for specifying
