There is no cookie banner on this site, because there is nothing to consent to. We set only strictly necessary cookies. We run no advertising or cross-site tracking.
| Cookie | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
sk_vid | A random, signed identifier so the same person cannot vote twice in a match. Contains no personal information and is meaningless outside this site. | 1 year |
sk_auth* | Keeps founders signed in. Only set if you have an account. | 30 days |
| Cloudflare Turnstile | Set by Cloudflare while checking a visitor is human. Required for voting to work at all. | Short-lived |
Why the voting cookie is set before you vote
We issue it when you first load a page rather than at the moment you vote. That keeps voting to a single click, and it lets us tell the difference between a normal visitor and an identity created a fraction of a second before a vote — which is what automated voting looks like.
Analytics
The visitor and vote counts shown on this site are our own, measured on our servers. If we add a third-party analytics tool we will use a cookieless one, and we will update this page before doing so.
Turning them off
You can block cookies in your browser. Voting will stop working, because we would have no way to prevent the same person voting repeatedly.
