Cookie policy

Updated 27 August 2026

Two cookies are set by QuickToilet itself, and both are the site working: one tells our server it is the same browser, the other keeps you signed in. On quick-toilet.com, Cloudflare — the service that shields our server from bots — adds one short-lived cookie of its own; it is also strictly necessary. Nothing here is set by an advertiser or an analytics service — no third-party cookie is written at all, so there is no choice to make and no banner to click.

No choice to make — the site cannot answer "where is the nearest toilet" and let you vote on it without them.

Essential cookies
NameWhat it doesKept for
qt_devA random id, signed by our server, that says "this is the same browser". It lets you vote, report, rate cleanliness and answer questions without an account, and stops one browser from doing so twice.1 year
qt_tokenKeeps you signed in after you log in. Only exists once you have an account and use it.30 days
__cf_bm
set by Cloudflare · production only
Set by Cloudflare, which sits in front of quick-toilet.com and filters out bots before they reach us. It tells Cloudflare a request comes from a real browser; it carries no id we could read.30 minutes

Optional · 0

None. If we ever add one — a visit counter, or a way for a sponsor to measure a slot — it appears here first, off by default, and you will be asked.

Stored on your device, not cookies

Kept in your browser's storage or in the app on your phone. It reaches our server only when you sign in and sync: your needs and saved spots are then copied to your account so they follow you to other devices. The rest stays on the device.

qt.prefs.v1
Your needs profile, units (km or mi), theme and map style. Synced to your account when you are signed in.
qt.saved.v1
The spots you bookmarked. Synced to your account when you are signed in.
qt.prefs.dirty.v1
Which settings you changed on this device since it last synced with your account, so a sign-in keeps your local edits.
qt.nudge.install.v1
Whether you dismissed the "get the app" banner, so it is not shown again.
qt.needsHintSeen
Whether the one-time hint about setting your needs has been shown.
qt.hint.saved-signed-out.v1
Whether you dismissed the hint that saved spots stay on this device until you sign in.

In the iOS and Android app the same items are also mirrored into the app’s own storage, so they survive the app clearing its web cache. Deleting the app removes them.
