Cookies and Local Storage.

The website asks your computer to store information on your storage. These explain what is done.

  1. Cookies. A session cookie is essential to use an account on the website. We assume if you use the system that you consent to this. You can tell your browser not to use cookies, but most of this website then won't work.
      The system uses these cookies:
    • JSESSION is a session cookie which expires when you close your browser (although some browsers maintain this). This is used to remember if you are logged in or not.
    • longterm.cirrostratus.online expires some time after you last use it. This cookie is used to recognise your device so that support questions and other similar comments are not lost.
    • userexclusive.cirrostratus.online expires when the user exclusivity expires for your device.
    • sysopdomain.cirrostratus.online tells the root domain (used for authorisation of external APIs) what your domain is.

    These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of the website which is why we use implied consent rather than explicit consent. You can see the cookies (and local storage) by clicking here

  2. The website also sometimes uses local storage. This is where information is stored on your computer to make things run more reliably.
