 > @antmg , I am not sure why this would be cookie-like information. Every
 single user would get the exact same info. There is nothing identifying in
 it, with no way to track sessions. Does your browser cache static images
 on a page? Of course. Why would this be different?

 That's a mistake, see the diagram for the correct text - I'll correct it -
 It was meant to say "Are you using cookies or similar technologies". Which
 is to say data storing mechanisms on the client side machine (this covers
 cookies, local storage and session storage), which it is, apologies for
 the confusion there.
