6. List of Cookies We Use
The following table provides examples of the cookies we may use. This list is updated regularly. You can find the current version at: https://www.yappybuy.com/cookie-policy
CookieScriptConsent
The CookieScriptConsent cookie is set when a user interacts with a cookie consent banner on a Webflow website. It tracks whether the user has accepted or rejected cookies, and possibly what types of cookies they've consented to.
How it works: When a user visits a website with a cookie consent banner, the CMP will typically present them with an option to accept or reject cookies. If the user accepts, the CookieScriptConsent cookie is set with a value indicating consent. If they reject, it's set to indicate a denial. This cookie is then used to control the loading of scripts and other tracking mechanisms that rely on cookies.
By using CookieScriptConsent, our website can ensure that we are complying with data privacy regulations, which require informed consent for cookie usage. It helps to automate the consent process, making it easier for our website to comply with these rules.
wf-csrf
The wf-csrf cookie in Webflow is used as a CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) token to prevent malicious attacks where an attacker tricks a user into performing unwanted actions on a website. This cookie helps ensure that a user's actions on a Webflow website are actually initiated by the user and not by a third-party.
The wf-csrf cookie, along with its signature (wf-csrf.sig), acts as a secret token. When a user interacts with a Webflow form or submits data, the server checks this token against the one stored in the cookie to verify the request's authenticity.
Security Enhancement:
This mechanism helps protect users by preventing malicious scripts or websites from making unauthorized changes or submitting data on their behalf.
Session Management:
The wf-csrf cookie is typically associated with a user's session and is used to identify and authenticate the user's browser while they are logged in and interacting with the site.
wf-csrf.sig
The wf-csrf.sig cookie in Webflow is used to ensure browsing security by preventing cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. It's an essential part of a Webflow website's security measures, working in conjunction with the wf-csrf cookie to validate form submissions and protect against malicious requests.
Webflow uses a combination of the wf-csrf and wf-csrf.sig cookies to prevent CSRF attacks. The wf-csrf cookie likely stores the CSRF token itself, while the wf-csrf.sig cookie (or a similar signature) verifies the integrity of the token.
When a user submits a form or performs an action that requires authentication, Webflow checks the CSRF token in the wf-csrf cookie and its signature in the wf-csrf.sig cookie to ensure the request is legitimate. If the token or signature is invalid, the request is rejected, preventing the CSRF attack.
This mechanism is crucial for protecting Webflow websites and their users from potential security risks caused by CSRF attacks.
