Other providers’ cookies
- Ko-fi: only when you click “Leave a tip” or “Buy me a coffee” does the window load Ko-fi’s page, and Ko-fi may then set its own cookies (see Ko-fi’s privacy policy). Without a click nothing is loaded.
- Supabase: your browser contacts Supabase when you press “Like”, send a comment, open the member area or explicitly load member content. The Cloudflare service in front of it may then set a security cookie
__cf_bmon the supabase.co domain (valid for 30 minutes). It only protects the service and is not used for analytics (Section 25(2) no. 2 TDDDG). Without a press there is none. - Cloudflare: to fend off automated attacks, Cloudflare may in some cases set a technically necessary security cookie (for example
__cf_bm, valid for 30 minutes). It only protects the website and is not used for analytics (Section 25(2) no. 2 TDDDG).
