Cookies

Short version: this site sets only the cookies it needs to work, and none that track you. That is why there is no cookie banner: consent is asked for cookies a site does not need, and there are none here to ask about. Our traffic measurement uses no cookies at all; the Privacy page explains how it works.

The cookies this site sets

Cookie	What it is for	How long it lasts
ropenode-session	Keeps you signed in, and keeps what you typed into a form between pages	120 minutes after your last visit to a page
XSRF-TOKEN	Proves a form was sent from this site, not from another site posing as you	The same as the session
remember_web_…	Keeps you signed in between visits. Set only if you tick Remember me	400 days, or until you sign out
appearance	Remembers the light or dark theme. Set only once you choose one	1 year
sidebar_state	Remembers whether your account sidebar is open. Set only once you open or close it	7 days

Your theme choice is also kept in your browser's local storage, under the same name, so pages do not flash the wrong theme while they load.

None of them is shared with anyone, used for advertising, or used to follow you to other websites. The site loads no scripts, fonts or images from other websites, with the one exception described under Bot protection below; its security policy tells your browser to refuse everything else.

Payments

Checkout happens on Stripe's own pages, and Stripe sets its own cookies there, for example to prevent fraud, under its own privacy policy. We set none for it.

Bot protection

The log in, sign-up and password-reset forms load Google reCAPTCHA, which checks that the form is being sent by a person and not a bot, without asking you anything. Google may set or read its own cookies while it does, under its own privacy policy. We set none for it.

Removing them

You can delete these cookies in your browser at any time. Without the first two you cannot sign in or send a form; without the others, the site forgets your theme or sidebar.
