Cookie policy

The EU's cookie policy was updated to document one additional first-party session cookie, "laravel_session," used by a "Corporate streaming service" to keep your session secure while you visit. It works the same way as other technical session cookies already listed (like JSESSIONID), is deleted when you close your browser, and does not involve tracking or data sharing.
