Short version: browsing this site sets no cookies, unless Cloudflare, which delivers the site, has to run a bot check (see Third parties). Logging in with Discord sets one strictly necessary login cookie (plus its signature). There are no analytics, advertising or tracking cookies — which is why there is no cookie banner.
Cookies
| Name | Purpose | When it is set | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| spg_session | Keeps you logged in (your Discord ID, username, avatar and when you logged in) and protects the login flow against forgery. | Only when you click Login | Until logout, max 7 days (an unfinished login: 10 minutes) |
| spg_session.sig | Tamper-proof signature for the cookie above. | With the cookie above | Same as above |
| cf_clearance | Set by Cloudflare, not by us: remembers that your browser passed Cloudflare's bot check. | Only if Cloudflare has to check that you are not a bot | 30 minutes by default (Cloudflare's setting) |
Our two login cookies are first-party cookies marked HttpOnly, Secure and SameSite=Lax: page scripts cannot read them, they travel only over HTTPS, and they are never sent to anyone but this website. Because they are strictly necessary for a feature you choose to use (logging in), they do not require consent under EU/UK cookie rules.
Browser storage
One small preference can be saved in your browser's storage. It never leaves your device:
- spg-motion — remembers if you turned animations off with the footer toggle.
Third parties
No tracking or advertising cookies are set while you browse. Cloudflare, which protects this site, sets security cookies only when it has to check that a visitor is not a bot: cf_clearance (listed above), short-lived helper cookies during the check, and __cf_bm if its bot protection is ever switched on. Cloudflare classes these as strictly necessary.
Cloudflare also asks your browser to keep a network-error-reporting setting for up to 7 days: if a page fails to load, your browser may send Cloudflare a short error report. See Cloudflare's privacy policy (opens in a new tab).
When you are logged in, your browser loads your avatar picture from Discord's image server, which may set its own short-lived security cookie (__cf_bm, on discordapp.com) and is subject to Discord's privacy policy (opens in a new tab). Links to Discord, MEE6 and Steam only contact those services when you click them.
