Your application will not use HTTP cookies to authenticate, but we would still like you to honor any “Set-Cookie” headers received from Bungie.net. These cookies help Bungie.net manage caching of data related to your session, providing better overall performance.

In certain very specific scenarios (such as apps that have no interactivity and process read-only data in bulk), you may want to get advanced and choose to ignore/throw out certain headers. See (Affinitization: Benefits, Drawbacks, and How-tos](https://github.com/Bungie-net/api/wiki/Affinitization:-benefits,-drawbacks,-how-to) for whether this applies to you and your specific application.

If you are creating a browser based app, you need to set 'withCredentials' to true when using to XMLHttpRequest. If you are building your application using an HTTP stack, make use of the cookie container features provided by your platform.
