TL;DR: https://dreamh.net/ and its subdomains (rtwalk.dreamh.net, vc.dreamh.net, etc.) only use a single cookie named session which is used to authenticate logged in users. This cookie is necessery if you choose to register, and login to dreamh. Unauthenticated users dont need to accept any cookie policy.

What are cookies?

An HTTP cookie (web cookie, browser cookie) is a small piece of data that a server sends to a user's web browser. The browser may store the cookie and send it back to the same server with later requests. Typically, an HTTP cookie is used to tell if two requests come from the same browser—keeping a user logged in, for example. It remembers stateful information for the stateless HTTP protocol.

Cookies are mainly used for three purposes:
  • - Session Management

    Logins, shopping carts, game scores, or anything else the server should remember

  • - Personalization

    User preferences, themes, and other settings

  • - Tracking

    Recording and analyzing user behavior

What cookies does dreamh use?

https://dreamh.net and its subdomains, (*.dreamh.net) use a single cookies called "session". This cookie is only set for logged in users. The session cookie stores a session token which is used by the website and other dreamh services to identify a logged in user. The cookie is invalidated when the user logs out. This cookie does not track user behavious across the site.

Can I reject this cookie?

No. If you a not logged in user, this cookie does not apply to you. And if you are logged in we cant identify you without the session cookie.

Then how do you gather analytics?

Analytics are completely annonymous and not tied to any particular user.
