Qsite cookie statement
Version 1.0 of 8 November 2026. Effective from 8 November 2026.
In short
Qsite.com and the Qsite admin use cookies that are needed for the site to work, and one statistics cookie of our own that has hardly any effect on your privacy. We use no cookies from advertising networks and do not follow you on other websites. That is why we do not ask for your consent with a cookie banner.
What are cookies?
A cookie is a small file that a website stores in your browser. Similar techniques, such as local storage in your browser, are also covered by this statement.
Which cookies we use
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session cookie (name ends in -session, for example qsite-session) | Remembers your session, for example that you are logged in, what is in your shopping cart or that you are filling in a form | 2 hours after your last click, or until you close your browser |
| XSRF-TOKEN | Security: prevents another website from sending forms on your behalf | As long as the session |
| qsite_vid | Statistics and comparing page versions, with a random code | 12 months |
| qsite_polls | Remembers that you have already voted in a poll, so you do not vote twice. Only on sites with a poll | 1 year |
| Cookie with a random 40-character name | Technical cookie from our hosting platform (Laravel Cloud), needed to handle your requests properly | 2 hours |
| __cf_bm | Security by Cloudflare: tells people apart from harmful bots | 30 minutes |
| _cfuvid | Security by Cloudflare: makes limits against misuse work fairly per visitor | Until you close your browser |
| cf_clearance | Security by Cloudflare: remembers that you passed a security check | At most 1 year |
In the admin we also keep a few items in your browser's local storage:
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| qsite.token | Keeps you logged into the admin | Until you log out |
| qsite.locale | Remembers the language you choose | Until you clear it |
| qsite.showHiddenFolders | Remembers whether you want to see hidden folders | Until you clear it |
| qsite.reloaded (sessionStorage) | Technical: prevents a page from reloading over and over after an update | Until you close the tab |
Security by Cloudflare
Our sites run through Cloudflare, which protects them against attacks and makes them faster. The Cloudflare cookies above are needed for that security. They are not used to track you. Cloudflare is our processor; see our privacy statement.
Statistics
We want to know how visitors find and use qsite.com, so we can improve it. For this we set one cookie of our own, qsite_vid. It holds only a random code, no name, e-mail address or IP address. It lets us see, for example, whether you visited before, which site or partner sent you, and which version of a page you saw when we compare two versions. The data stays with us, we share it with no one and do not use it for advertising. The cookie is kept for 12 months. Because it has hardly any effect on your privacy, we do not ask for consent. If you do not want it, you can block or delete it in your browser; the site keeps working.
Websites made with Qsite
This statement applies to qsite.com and the admin. Websites made with Qsite use the same necessary cookies by default. A site owner can add services themselves, such as Google Analytics, Hotjar or embedded videos. The owner is then responsible for the cookie banner and cookie statement of that site.
Deleting cookies
You can delete cookies and local storage at any time in your browser settings. If you block the necessary cookies, logging in and forms will no longer work properly.
