I need to know the purpose of some cookies that I can't find information in my country - web

I'm creating a document describing the purpose of the cookies used on the internal website and these 3 cookies have been located and I can't obtain information about their purpose. Can someone help me ?

I searched several sites looking for their purpose. I used other search tools besides Google and didn't find anything relevant.

Requesting removal of stored website data from search engines

Greetings fellow developers,
I would like to ask for help regarding the following problem: Is there a way to request removal of stored website data from search engines? Most of the links that show up when searching my domain are old and non-existent.
What I've found from personal research regarding this question/problem:
From my personal research I have found that removal requests can be made individually to the well-known search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing, but this is not what I am looking for, since I am well-aware that it would take a lot of time for the requests to be processed and the removal of the data to be done. Also, I wasn't able to find this "removal-request" webpage for the other search engines.
To be more precise/clear...
... I want to request this website-data-removal to all (most) search engines at once, so that when I upload my new website (to the same domain), working and functional links (URLs) would be displayed. Can this be anyhow achieved and, if so, how? Also, how much time would it take for this removal to be finished?
Hope my question is clear enough, and any answer/help would be very much appreciated.
No, there is not a way to do this for all search engines at once. You will have to request it from each site individually. As for the smaller search engines you can try and find any contact information or customer support however their is a chance they will ignore your request (heck, some sites ignore the robot.txt file and just search your site anyways... it's just a part of being on the web).

Is there any Web API for Google web clipboard?

Google Docs have a feature "Web Clipboard" to help users easily copy and paste cross google documents. (you can refer to https://drive.googleblog.com/2010/02/a-web-clipboard-for-google-docs.html)
But I am wondering that if there's any Web API or official way to access those API.
I try to find in Google Document List APi (https://developers.google.com/google-apps/documents-list/), I can't find any related stuff.
The original goal for me is I want to copy some screenshot/images/text from my Windows OS.
And I want to paste into my GoogleDoc Document.
But it can't be done unless the screenshot/image/text is update/upload into Web Clipboard.
I keep finding any related integrated tools or extension, but I still can't find anyone.
Could someone give me some suggestions?
There is no official way to access this API, sorry.
There is clearly an API of sorts, just not documented. I'd suggest looking at extensions like this one and trying to reverse-engineer the protocol so you can see what endpoints it is calling.
But it sounds like a lot of work.

Very simple user validation

I'm making an app and I plan to have some cloud happening with it, but I do not want to create a user data base and have the users need to remember their username and password.
Since it will be distributed through the chrome app store it's basically guaranteed that the user will have a google account. All I want to do is:
Get the user's email through the google account stuff. If I get it through there, well then their email is all the authentication I need to get that user's data.
If I end up putting the application on something other than chrome browser, I'll just have the user use their email to request a validation link, and then I'll send them a validation code for that account, they put the validation code into the application, it takes that as a verified user, so that's secure and easy as well.
EDIT: I'm looking into this. So far I have:
OAuth 2
Google API
But I have a problem that I don't know what to set as my javascript origins in the Google API and there isn't too much info on this abroad. If anyone can tell me what javascript origins I need to set for a chrome extension to access google api it would be a great help.
PS: Thanks for down vote, this is why I love resorting to stack exchange.
Hmmm, I think the only reason this was voted down is the fact that this question may be been asked somewhere on the site already (but I'll help you and give give a 1up).
So what you are wanting to use the Google OpenID. You will have to register your application with Google so they can provide OAuth2 tokens for you application. I have not done this with Google but with other services and it is pretty easy, just search around.
In terms of obtaining OAuth2 for your application in the chrome extension - this can be a pain since the extension is sandboxed and Google's example uses OAuth not OAuth2.
Here is solution I host on GitHub for this - I also use this in my extension GitHub Repositories:
https://github.com/jjNford/oauth2-chrome-extension
Hope this helps in some way. Don't get discourages with StackOverflow, it is a great resource with many great contributors.
Good luck!
I had to up vote you too as I'm tracking down a related issue so here is what I've found that may help.
According to these directions - http://code.google.com/p/google-api-javascript-client/wiki/Authentication - "In the "Authorized JavaScript Origins" box, enter the protocol and domain for your site." This should be the protocol (http:// or https://) followed by any optional subdomain followed by your domain name and no trailing slash. Nothing after the domain name.
This prevents certain kind of security attacks, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same_origin_policy.
There are some related questions here that I found that may help:
Problems with Google Picker API and selecting Google Drive items and google apis console 'Javascript origins'.
Now with all of that said, I am still trying to track down what values to put in there for one of my sites hosted as a Google Site, as none of the obvious values are working for me. So there may be some subtlety there that I have missed in this explanation.

How to Tell if Click Came from Google Search

I'd like to know if there is a way to detect whether the user has entered the website from an Organic Link from Google on certain key words?
What I am trying to do is provide additional information to appear to those who found my site via Google?
Thanks!
Use Google Analytics
Sign up for an account and just add a small snippet of Javascript to your site. It's really easy to set up and track links from google and even the exact search terms used!

How to get the lists of file and directory names of a site?

How exactly do you do this? The reason is my CMS has been breached, well, mainly because the username and password is fairly common (my bad). But I've always thought that it is save, since the directory name is pretty un-common and hard to guess (not the usual /cms/ or /admin/). Brute-forcing from a script? or maybe some Google tricks?
update : my CMS is in PHP and I developed it myself. I don't remember putting the link to it everywhere, except once in email I sent to my friend via gmail.
update 2 : as this could be used by some people to attack a site, please don't put any script in the answer. My intention is just to know the general ways to do it, so that I could prevent further attacks like this.
Thanks in advance.
Did you ever surf somewhere via a link from your CMS? Your browser would have sent a referer (note the misspelling) header, indicating where you came from.
Maybe you had a link to administrative area somewhere?
Or maybe accessing main directory without filename renders directory index?
I.e. you're using mod_autoindex?
My guess is, that somebody linked to your CMS URL and an automated (evil) script found it using Google search results looking for some common patterns.
Search in Google using this query
link:http://www.example.com/myCmsFolder
to verify if your link/pages are contained in Google.
