Cookies Informations

Hello,

 

For my privacy statement I need to give some informations to my costumers about cookies.

 

Can somebody tell me:

- If Fusionmaps uses cookies ?

- What are the cookies exactly doing ?

- Are those cookies mandatory for Fusionmaps to work well ?

 

Thank you in advance.

When using FusionMaps I encounter cookies named 'cod' and 'csd' with number value. Do you know what represents such cookie ? (name and value)

 

Thank you again.

Hi,

 

Any product in the FusionCharts Suite does not use any cookies at all.

 

Hope this helps.

Sorry to insist but I really view such cookies when accessing my 3.1 Fusionmaps instance...

I scanned the source code and found those related lines in the Contents/JS/dtree.js file:

if (this.config.useCookies) this.setCookie('cs' + this.obj, cn.id); // Highlights the selected node
this.setCookie('co'+this.obj, 'cookieValue', yesterday); // [Cookie] Clears a cookie
this.setCookie('cs'+this.obj, 'cookieValue', yesterday); // [Cookie] Clears a cookie
dTree.prototype.setCookie = function(cookieName, cookieValue, expires, path, domain, secure) { document.cookie = escape(cookieName) + '=' + escape(cookieValue) + (expires ? '; expires=' + expires.toGMTString() : '') + (path ? '; path=' + path : '') + (dom
this.setCookie('co' + this.obj, str); // [Cookie] Returns ids of open nodes as a string

 

Do you know what those cookies do ?

 

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

 

FusionCharts does not use cookies.

 

You can browse on the FusionCharts Chart Gallery page to check if the cookies are being used or not.

 

Also can you provide us any live URL of the same?

Ok, I found the cause of those cookies: the dTree scripts (JavaScript tree menu) used in the documentation

 

Please find examples below:

http://docs.fusioncharts.com/maps/

 

Indeed, maps do not generate cookies.

 

Thank you again Sumedh.
