MiladC It looks like there is a new Cookie in 25.12 called LithiumTimezonePreferences - its not in the Khoros Cookies Datasheet (Community, Care, Marketing, Khoros Bot) can someone confirm and update the datasheet asap?

LucyL We have been having issues with this new cookied: LithiumTimezonePreferences and getting the cookie approved by our legal team. I think its because the description indicates its a 'interaction' cookie (or at very least is confusing).
We would instead suggest a description and purpose for this cookie as:
Description and Purpose
This cookie stores timezone information used to render dates and times within the community interface.Prior to authentication, the cookie defaults to the community‑configured timezone. Upon user authentication, the cookie is updated with the user’s preferred timezone (derived from profile settings during login), enabling accurate local‑time display of timestamps, event schedules, and other time‑based community content.
If I could also gently push that these being cookies seems like overkill, it could be stored in session storage or it could be got from the users browser using:
Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZoneWe need to be smarter about cookies and how they are being used (and for why) as users become ever more privacy aware and protective of the same.
