It is used to persist the Hotjar User ID, unique to that site on the browser. This ensures that behavior in subsequent visits to the same site will be attributed to the same user ID.
– Cookie Name: hjSession{siteid} Default expiration time: 30 minutes Description: A cookie that holds the current session data. This ensues that subsequent requests within the session window will be attributed to the same Hotjar session.
– Cookie Name: _hjClosedSurveyInvites Default expiration time: 365 days Description: Hotjar cookie that is set once a user interacts with an External Link Survey invitation modal. It is used to ensure that the same invite does not reappear if it has already been shown.

– Cookie Name: _hjShownFeedbackMessage Default expiration time: 365 days Description: Hotjar cookie that is set when a user minimizes or completes Incoming Feedback. This is done so that the Incoming Feedback will load as minimized immediately if the user navigates to another page where it is set to show.
– Cookie Name: _hjSessionTooLarge Default expiration time: Session Description: Causes Hotjar to stop collecting data if a session becomes too large. This is determined automatically by a signal from the WebSocket server if the session size exceeds the limit.
– Cookie Name: _hjSessionRejected Default expiration time: Session Description: If present, this cookie will be set to '1' for the duration of a user's session, if Hotjar rejected the session from connecting to our WebSocket due to server overload. This cookie is only applied in extremely rare situations to prevent severe performance issues.

It is used to persist the Hotjar User ID, unique to that site on the browser. This ensures that behavior in subsequent visits to the same site will be attributed to the same user ID.
– Cookie Name: _hjRecordingLastActivity Default expiration time: Session Description: This should be found in Session storage (as opposed to cookies). This gets updated when a user recording starts and when data is sent through the WebSocket (the user performs an action that Hotjar records).
– Cookie Name: hjTLDTest Default expiration time: Session Description: When the Hotjar script executes we try to determine the most generic cookie path we should use, instead of the page hostname. This is done so that cookies can be shared across subdomains (where applicable). To determine this, we try to store the hjTLDTest cookie for different URL substring alternatives until it fails. After this check, the cookie is removed.
– Cookie Name: _hjUserAttributesHash Default expiration time: Session Description: User Attributes sent through the Hotjar Identify API are cached for the duration of the session in order to know when an attribute has changed and needs to be updated.
– Cookie Name: _hjCachedUserAttributes Default expiration time: Session Description: This cookie stores User Attributes which are sent through the Hotjar Identify API, whenever the user is not in the sample. Collected attributes will only be saved to Hotjar servers if the user interacts with a Hotjar Feedback tool, but the cookie will be used regardless of whether a Feedback tool is present.
– Cookie Name: hjLocalStorageTest Default expiration time: Under 100ms Description: This cookie is used to check if the Hotjar Tracking Script can use local storage. If it can, a value of 1 is set in this cookie. The data stored inhjLocalStorageTest has no expiration time, but it is deleted almost immediately after it is created.
– Cookie Name: _hjIncludedInPageviewSample Default expiration time: 30 minutes Description: This cookie is set to let Hotjar know whether that user is included in the data sampling defined by your site's pageview limit.
