Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Sites also use similar browser storage (local storage, session storage, IndexedDB) to remember things on your device. This page lists what TaskerData stores and why. How we handle the personal data involved is explained in our Privacy Policy.
2. Cookies we set
These are needed for the site to work or remember your choices, so they don't need your consent.
| Name | What it does | Kept for |
|---|---|---|
auth_session | Keeps you signed in, across taskerdata.com and its sub-sites | Until you sign out or the session expires |
td_seen | Counts you once per day in our active-users statistics, so we don't log every page view | 36 hours |
referral_ref | Remembers whose referral link brought you here until you sign up | 30 days |
auth_action | Signs you out in all open tabs when you sign out in one | A few seconds |
task_layout | Remembers how you like the task list laid out | Until you change it |

3. Other storage on your device
| Where | What it does |
|---|---|
Local storage: td-campaign-progress…, td-qualification-progress… | Saves your progress on a task or qualification so a reload doesn't lose it. Removed when you finish. |
Local storage: failedAttempts, lastAttemptTime, lockoutTime | Slows down repeated wrong passwords on the sign-in page. |
Session storage: forbidden_sign_up | Remembers that sign-up was blocked for this connection, for this browser tab only. |
IndexedDB: ArticleStore | Keeps unsaved blog drafts for our editors. |
4. Cookies from other companies
| Company | Why | Consent needed? |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics | Tells us how the site is used (pages visited, rough location, device) so we can improve it. Until you accept, it sets no cookies and Google only receives anonymous, cookieless signals. | Yes |
| Cookie-Script | Remembers your cookie choices | No |
| Google reCAPTCHA | Tells people from bots on sign-up, sign-in and task submission | No (security) |
| Stripe | Card payments and fraud prevention when requesters add funds | No (needed for payment) |
| Persona | Identity verification, only if we ask you to verify | No (needed for that check) |
| YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion | Embedded videos in tasks and our lottery livestream | Set by the video site when you play the video |
| Offer walls (AdBlueMedia, CPX Research, Lootably, OGAds, TimeWall) | Show offers and credit you for completed ones | Set by the partner when you open their offers |
These companies set and read their own cookies under their own policies. We don't control them.
