Purpose of cookies

brezel

In der Version 3.(1.8.) sehe ich 3 Cookies. Kann mal jemand ganz kurz erklären, welchen Zweck die einzelnen Cookies erfüllen?

evo_remember-Manager: Ist für die Wiedererkennung von Nutzern
evo_session: Ist für den Login?
evo..... - Wofür ist dieses Cookie?

Oh sorry, I copied the wrong page from the translation program.
In version 3.(1.8.) I see 3 cookies. Can someone explain very briefly what purpose each cookie serves?

evo_remember manager: Is for user recognition.
evo_session: Is for the login?
evo..... - What is this cookie for?

brezel To the best of my knowledge evo_remember_manager and evo_session are used only when you log into the webpage/manager and they are used to identify the logged in user. evo... is a cookie that is always saved by Evolution CMS, even on frontend. This is a session cookie that is deleted once the user saves the browser and in principle matters only when the user wants to log in. But this also makes it a technical cookie of sorts.

I am only interested in a simple answer. What is the purpose of the evocookie.
In the github-issues different aspects are addressed and discussed. Only the simple question about the purpose of the evocookie is never answered.

For many of my websites I don't need a consent manager for the cookies used, because I don't collect or personalize any personal data and I don't give it to third parties. I only need to specify the purpose of the cookies from EVO in a privacy statement. The information that it is a session cookie is not enough, because these cookies can serve very different purposes (security, performace and other more).
Why can't you just say that the evo... cookie serves this purpose or has this task.
