Change How Long Polylang Remembers the Language
Sets how long Polylang's language cookie lasts (one year by default), for example a single session on kiosks and shared computers, or 30 days for privacy-conscious sites.

Code
$wpide_seconds = 30 * DAY_IN_SECONDS; // Cookie lifetime in seconds; 0 = session only.
add_filter( 'pll_cookie_expiration', function () use ( $wpide_seconds ) {
return max( 0, (int) $wpide_seconds );
} );Notes
0 makes it a session cookie that disappears when the browser closes.
