+    Django provides full support for anonymous sessions. The session
+    framework lets you store and retrieve arbitrary data on a
+    per-site-visitor basis. It stores data on the server side and
+    abstracts the sending and receiving of cookies. Cookies contain a
+    session ID -- not the data itself.
+
+    The Django sessions framework is entirely cookie-based. It does
+    not fall back to putting session IDs in URLs. This is an intentional
+    design decision. Not only does that behavior make URLs ugly, it makes
+    your site vulnerable to session-ID theft via the "Referer" header.
+
+    For complete documentation on using Sessions in your code, consult
+    the sessions documentation that is shipped with Django (also available
+    on the Django website).
