Could anyone please tell me the purpose of this cookie?

safeLocalStorage

This cookie was flagged by a system called CookieBot and found on our /login page.

It doesn’t appear in this list:

And I can’t see any mention of it by searching here.

Oddly, when I visit our site, log in, log out, etc. I can’t see the cookie so am wondering whether it is temporarily created and then removed? We need to classify/remove this cookie for as part of the UK’s cookie rules.

Our forum is version: 2.8.0.beta8, running in Docker, on Linux.

Thank you, Steve

Not a cookie per se but // A simple key value store that uses LocalStorage, it // makes sure we can write to the local storage

localStorage can be browsed for instance in the application tab of the Chrome Developer Tools :
