How and why we use cookies on this website
Last updated: 02 November 2026
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember information about your visit, such as your preferences or whether you are logged in. Cookies do not contain viruses or harmful software.
We use only essential and functional cookies. We do not use advertising, tracking or analytics cookies.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| fdtr_cookie_consent | Remembers whether you have accepted or declined cookies | 365 days | Functional |
| PHPSESSID | Admin login session — only set if you log into the admin panel | Session / 24 hours | Essential |
Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly. They cannot be disabled. The admin session cookie (PHPSESSID) is only set when an administrator logs into the admin panel — regular visitors will never receive this cookie.
We use one functional cookie (fdtr_cookie_consent) to remember your cookie preference so we don't show you the cookie banner every time you visit. If you decline cookies, this preference itself is stored as a minimal session-only cookie that expires when you close your browser.
We do not use any third party cookies. We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, advertising networks or any other third party tracking services. Map thumbnails are loaded from rustmaps.com — visiting their content may result in their own cookies being set according to their own policy.
