Hello Everyone,

We have a Force.com site that will be publicly available (no login needed). I am looking for information on what cookies Salesforce.com will be setting, in order to understand whether we need to put up a notice in order to comply with the laws in the EU requiring consent before using cookies. So far I see that Salesforce sets a BrowserID cookie. Is it documented anywhere what other cookies are set for Force.com sites (publicly available) and what they are used for?

So far it looks ilke there are exceptions where certain kinds of cookies don't require notification. (This info is from Cookiepedia: http://cookiepedia.co.uk/cookie-law-compliance-guidance, and http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/article-29/documentation/opinion-recommendation/files/2012/wp194_en.pdf)

CRITERION A: the cookie is used “for the sole purpose of carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network”.
CRITERION B: the cookie is “strictly necessary in order for the provider of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user to provide the service”.

There doesn't seem to be much on the web or in the documentation on this specific topic.

Thanks,
JP
