WordPress, Registration & Login

This site uses the WordPress CMS, which sets cookies when a user navigates, or registers and creates an account to use our service.

  • wordpress_[hash] – stores the authentication details on login. The authentication details include the username and double hashed copy of the password.
  • wordpress_logged_in_[hash] – used to indicate when you are logged in, and who you are. [hash] represents the value that is obtained by applying a specific mathematical formula applied to the username and password. It is to ensure that the input values are safe, and no one can access these data using the cookies as it is difficult to ‘unhash’ the hashed data.
