What are cookies?

A Cookie (information capsule) is a small file which is stored locally on your device. A cookie is not harmful, and it cannot contain a virus or any programs.

Koko analytics uses cookies to separate visitors so you aren’t counted more than once in our statistics. This cookie does not save or give us any personal information about you – but gives Koko analytics a more accurate way of counting visitors as you are not counted every time you re-fresh the page.

This cookie is deleted after 6 hours, or can be deleted manually by deleting cookies though your browser. You can also opt out any third-party cookies by setting this option directly in your browser.

What is a referrer?

A referrer is «the last web address accessed by a browser prior to loading a particular web page, used to identify sources of traffic.»

The referrer gives us a picture of where our visitors are coming from, but not any information more than the domain name of the page (i.e. «Facebook.com» or «google.com»).

This information helps us pinpoint where people are finding the SvalBad webpage and how we can improve our information for our visitors.
