Google Analytics (Performance)

We use Google analytics to track which pages are most popular, so we can focus on these areas to give you a better user experience.

Google analytics stores five cookies (_utma, _utmb, _utmc, _utmt, _utmz).

S – This is a unique identifier used by Google applications to store user preferences.

PREF – A persistent cookie, which expires a little under two years from the time it’s set. This is a unique identifier used by Google applications to store user preferences.

NID – A persistent cookie, which expires a little under six months from the time it’s set. This is a unique identifier used by Google applications to store user preferences.

WordPress

We use WordPress as our content management system on the website.

wordpress_test_cookie is set when you navigate to the login page. The cookie is used to check whether your web browser is set to allow, or reject cookies. This is asession cookie and deleted when you close your web browser.

Cloudflare

Sometimes we use Cloudflares’ CDN, DNS, DDoS protection and security to further protect our users.

__cfduid –  The __cfduid cookie is used to identify individual clients behind a shared IP address and apply security settings on a per-client basis. For example, if the visitor is in a coffee shop where there are a bunch of infected machines, but the specific visitor’s machine is trusted (e.g. because they’ve completed a challenge within your Challenge Passage period), the cookie allows us to identify that client and not challenge them again. It does not correspond to any user ID in your web application, and does not store any personally identifiable information.

Because Cloudflare uses this cookie to identify both HTTP and HTTPS requests from known clients, we do not set the “secure” flag on it. This is not a risk, however, as mentioned above the cookie does not contain sensitive data.

This cookie is strictly necessary for Cloudflare’s security features and cannot be turned off.
