2. On the sign-in page
Signing in runs on our own sign-in service (Keycloak), at auth.gelex.eu. It sets these cookies, all of them Secure and limited to the sign-in service:
| Name | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|
AUTH_SESSION_ID | Ties together the steps of one sign-in. HttpOnly. | Until you close the browser |
KC_AUTH_SESSION_HASH | Lets the sign-in page check that it belongs to the same sign-in. | 60 seconds |
KC_RESTART | Lets a sign-in that timed out start again where it was. HttpOnly. | Until you close the browser |
KC_STATE_CHECKER | Protects sign-in forms and error pages against forged requests. HttpOnly. | 5 minutes |
KEYCLOAK_IDENTITY | Remembers that you are signed in, so other parts of the service do not ask again. HttpOnly. | Until you close the browser. The sign-in session behind it ends after 30 minutes without use, or 10 hours at most. |
KEYCLOAK_SESSION | The same sign-in session, readable by the sign-in page to notice when you sign out. | As KEYCLOAK_IDENTITY |
KEYCLOAK_LOCALE | Remembers the language you picked on the sign-in page, if you pick one. | Until you close the browser |
If you choose to sign in with Google or Microsoft, you are sent to their page, and their own cookie policies apply there.
