2. Cookies
| Cookie | Name | Purpose | More Information |
|---|
| Browser Session Cookie | PHPSESSID | This cookie is set by the website when a user visits the site and is an essential cookie for the operation of the website. This cookie does not display any identifiable or tracking information and is deleted when the user closes their browser. | N/A |
| Google Analytics | _ga
_gat
_gid | These cookies are used to collect information about how visitors use our site. We use the information to compile reports and to help us improve the site. The cookies collect information in an anonymous form, including the number of visitors to the site, where visitors have come to the site from and the pages they visited. | For an overview of privacy at Google please click here |
| Cloudflare | _cfduid | This cookie is used for Cloudflare's security features. | More Information |
| Hotjar | _hjid | Hotjar cookie. This cookie is set when the customer first lands on a page with the Hotjar script. It is used to persist the Hotjar User ID, unique to that site on the browser. This ensures that behavior in subsequent visits to the same site will be attributed to the same user ID. | More Information |
| Hotjar | _hjRecordingLastActivity | This should be found in sessionStorage (as opposed to cookies). This gets updated when a visitor recording starts and when data is sent through the WebSocket (the visitor performs an action that Hotjar records). | More Information |
| Hotjar | _hjTLDTest | When the Hotjar script executes we try to determine the most generic cookie path we should use, instead of the page hostname. This is done so that cookies can be shared across subdomains (where applicable). To determine this, we try to store the _hjTLDTest cookie for different URL substring alternatives until it fails. After this check, the cookie is removed. | More Information |
| Hotjar | _hjUserAttributesHash | User Attributes sent through the Hotjar Identify API are cached for the duration of the session in order to know when an attribute has changed and needs to be updated. | More Information |
