How does kbin keep users logged in? (kbin.social)

I signed in with my Google account. I was looking at the cookies kbin sets and the user token REMEMNERME is only set to last for one week.

Does this mean I have to religion after a week?

If not, how does kbin know to keep me logged in after the REMEMBERME cookie expires?

Most likely if you don't visit for a week, you will get logged out. But if you do visit before it expericed, it just resets the cookie for another week.

I'm not on kbin so I cannot check, but that's my guess.
