Hi under the EU Cookie Directive – I am auditing the cookies being set on a mendozite website. A mendozite cookie is being set with the value of mendozite.

Could you tell me why it’s being set please?
Is it really necessary?

Thanks.

Hi son123,

Normally i think it only stored the template name to a cookie variable, no personal information is stored 🙂

You can open the file of pluginssystemjat3jat3coreparameter.php at about line number 108 you would see this line of code
[PHP] setcookie($this->template . ‘_tpl’, $this->template, $exp, ‘/’);[/PHP]

Remove that line I think would help !
