What this site stores
This site uses no advertising tags. Our own cookies, below, are strictly necessary and do not follow you anywhere. We also use Google Analytics to count visits, and Google sets its own cookies for that, described at the end of this page.
The sign-in cookie is set only if you sign in to an account; pages read it only when the browser already sent it, and never start a session for a visitor who has none. The age cookie is set only while our 18+ notice is switched on (it is currently off).
Clearing your browser's cookies for this site removes both. The entry warning will simply appear again on your next visit, and you will be signed out.
Both cookies, in full
jm_entry. The age check
| Set when | You choose "I am 18 or over" on the entry warning. |
|---|---|
| Purpose | So the age warning is not shown again on every page. |
| Contains | The single character "1". Nothing about you, your device or your visit. |
| Expires | Thirty days after it is set. |
| Shared | With nobody. It is never sent to another site, and it is not readable by scripts (HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax). |
jm_sess, staying signed in
| Set when | You open a sign-in or create-account page, or sign in. Browsing the rest of the site signed out does not set it. |
|---|---|
| Purpose | So you stay signed in from one page to the next. |
| Contains | A random identifier and nothing else. Your name, email and password are not in it and never travel in it. |
| Expires | When you close the browser, when you sign out, after two hours idle, or twelve hours after you signed in, whichever comes first. |
| Shared | With nobody (HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax). |
Google Analytics cookies
We use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are read. It sets cookies named _ga and _ga_<id>, which hold a random visitor ID so that one person's visits are counted once. They last up to two years and are read only by Google, under Google's own privacy policy.
They contain nothing you type into our forms. You can block or delete them in your browser, or use Google's opt-out add-on; the site works exactly the same without them.
