Logging and 'Cookies'

Unique Device Identification

Each user will make a GET request to: https://gvid.pointandplace.com/ which will issue a unique identifier for this user's browsing environment.

Once issued, the id will be valid for 1 year. It is saved into the key eky-gvid.

Note, this request is only made when there is no value for eky-gvid in localStorage or the existing value has expired.
