STL Members Area - Cookie Notice
1. Purpose of this notice This cookie notice explains the cookie used by the STL Members Area. The members area uses a session cookie that is required for login, authentication and secure access to protected pages and documents.
2. Cookies used
3. Why this cookie is necessary The session cookie is required so the website can recognise that a user has successfully logged in. Without this cookie, the members area cannot keep the user logged in and cannot protect access to member-only documents.
4. No tracking cookies The STL Members Area does not use this session cookie for advertising, analytics, profiling or marketing tracking.

Based on the current implementation, no advertising cookies, analytics cookies or third-party tracking cookies are used in the members area.
5. Cookie security The session cookie is configured with security settings where supported by the server and browser:
  • HttpOnly: helps prevent JavaScript access to the cookie
  • SameSite=Strict: helps reduce cross-site request risks
  • Use only cookies: prevents session IDs from being passed in URLs
If the website is operated over HTTPS, the secure cookie setting should also be enabled on the server.
6. Consent Because the session cookie is technically necessary for login and secure access to the members area, the site does not ask for separate cookie consent for this cookie.

If additional non-essential cookies are added in the future, for example analytics or marketing cookies, the cookie notice and consent mechanism should be updated.
7. Managing cookies Users can delete cookies through their browser settings. However, if the session cookie is blocked or deleted, the members area may not work correctly and the user may be logged out.
8. More information For more information about how personal data is processed in the members area, please see the Privacy Notice.
