Ravenfall sets three kinds of cookie. Two of them are what keep you signed in, and the third is Google Analytics.
| Cookie | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
__ravenSession |
Identifies your browsing session. It is what lets the site recognise you between pages after you sign in with Twitch, and what the game client's sign in window hands its token back through. | 7 days |
.AspNetCore.Session |
The web framework's own session cookie, which holds the state behind a signed in page while you are using it. It cannot be read by scripts and is only sent to this site. | 24 hours idle |
_ga, _gid |
Google Analytics, which tells us how many people visit and which pages they use. It is not tied to your Ravenfall account and we do not use it for advertising. | Set by Google |
Turning them off
Every browser can block or clear cookies from its own settings, usually under privacy. Blocking the first two signs you out and keeps you signed out, because staying signed in is the whole job they do. Nothing else on the site depends on them: reading the highscores, the item list and the command list works without any cookies at all.
Google Analytics can be switched off on its own with Google's own opt out add on, which works across every site rather than just this one.
