What cookies are
Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser. Similar tools, such as local storage, do the same job. Some are needed for a site to work or to stay secure. Others are optional, for things like measuring visits or advertising, and those need your permission first.
What this site stores
Nightclerk itself sets no cookies and keeps nothing in your browser's storage. The only cookies that can appear come from Cloudflare, which protects the site, and they exist for security. This list is generated from the same settings the site itself runs on.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Kept for |
|---|---|---|---|
| __cf_bm | Cloudflare (cookie) | Set only when Cloudflare's bot protection is switched on. Tells real visitors from automated traffic. | 30 minutes |
| cf_chl_rc_i, cf_chl_rc_ni, cf_chl_rc_m | Cloudflare Turnstile (cookies, from challenges.cloudflare.com) | May be set when you use the waitlist form, by the hidden check that tells people from scripts. Cloudflare uses them internally to find problems with the check. The check itself gives us a one-time token, not a cookie. | Decided by Cloudflare |
The check on the waitlist form is Cloudflare Turnstile. It loads only when you go to use the form, and it proves you are a person by giving us a one-time token, not by setting a cookie on this site. We have not switched on the option that would make it set a longer-lived cf_clearance cookie. Cloudflare describes all of its cookies in its cookie reference.
Your choices
- There is no cookie banner because there is nothing optional to agree to. The cookies above are strictly necessary for security, which is why they do not ask.
- If we ever want to use optional cookies, we will ask first. They will stay off until you say yes.
- You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings. The pages still work; the waitlist form may not be able to verify you.

If what the site stores changes, this page changes with it. See the Privacy Policy for everything else about your data, or write to [email protected].
