 * I am using GDPR Cookie consent by Web toffee. I have scanned the site and can
   see the 10 or so Cleantalk cookies. the first one: [ct_fkp_timestamp](https://survivorsforum.womensaid.org.uk/wp-admin/post.php?post=159145&action=edit)
   is labelled as necessary. All the others aren’t. My guess is when a user/bot 
   rejects the cookies only the non necessary ones will be rejected. Many of them
   are labelled “CleanTalk sets this cookie to complete an anti-spam solution and
   firewall for the website, preventing spam from appearing in comments and forms.”
   for example.
 * Can you confirm that Cleantalk will still stop spam with just the first timestamp
   cookie as necessary. Or do I have to make all Cleantalk cookies necessary for
   Cleantalk to do it’s job?

 * Hello,
 * There is no need to make cookies as necessary, the protection should work. Let
   us know if there will be any missed spam.
