Manage cookies and website data

Websites often store cookies and other data on your Mac. This data may include information that you have provided, such as your name, email address, and preferences. This data helps websites identify you when you return so the site can provide services for you and show information that might be of interest to you.

By default, Safari accepts cookies and website data only from websites you visit. This helps prevent certain advertisers from storing data on your Mac. You can change options in Safari preferences so that Safari always accepts or always blocks cookies and other website data.

Important: Changing your cookie preferences or removing cookies and website data in Safari may change or remove them in other apps, including Dashboard.

Choose Safari > Preferences, click Privacy, then do any of the following:

Change which cookies and website data are accepted: Select a “Cookies and website data” option:

Always block: Safari doesn’t let any websites, third parties, or advertisers store cookies and other data on your Mac. This may prevent some websites from working properly.

Allow from current website only: Safari accepts cookies and website data only from the website you’re currently visiting. Websites often have embedded content from other sources. Safari does not allow these third parties to store or access cookies or other data.

Allow from websites I visit: Safari accepts cookies and website data only from websites you visit. Safari uses your existing cookies to determine whether you have visited a website before. Selecting this option helps prevent websites that have embedded content in other websites you browse from storing cookies and data on your Mac.

Always allow: Safari lets all websites, third parties, and advertisers store cookies and other data on your Mac.

Remove stored cookies and data: Click Manage Website Data, select one or more websites, then click Remove or Remove All.

Removing the data may reduce tracking, but may also log you out of websites or change website behavior.

See which websites store cookies or data: Click Manage Website Data.

Change how often websites ask to use your location information: Select a “Website use of location services” option:

Prompt for each website once each day: Safari prompts you once each day for each website you visit that requests use of location services.

Prompt for each website one time only: Safari only prompts you once for each website you visit that requests use of location services.

Deny without prompting: All websites are denied access to location services and Safari does not prompt you.

Ask websites not to track you: Some websites keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. You can have Safari ask sites and their third party content providers (including advertisers) not to track you.

With this option turned on, each time Safari fetches content from a website, Safari adds a request not to track you, but it’s up to the website to honor this request.

Apple updates Safari’s anti-tracking tech with full third-party cookie blocking

Beating google by two years to the privacy feature.

Apple on Tuesday released a major update to its Safari Intelligent Tracking Prevention (ITP), the privacy feature that allows the company’s web browser to block cookies and prevent advertisers from snooping on your web habits. According to Apple’s John Wilander, the WebKit engineer behind the feature, Safari now blocks all third-party cookies . That means that, by default, no advertiser or website is able to follow you around the internet using the commonplace tracking technology.

It’s a significant milestone for web privacy, and it puts Apple’s browser officially two whole years ahead of Chrome, after Google said in January that it would start phasing out third-party cookies but not fully until some time in 2022.

“Cookies for cross-site resources are now blocked by default across the board. This is a significant improvement for privacy since it removes any sense of exceptions or ‘a little bit of cross-site tracking is allowed,’” Wilander notes in the announcement post on the blog for WebKit, which is Apple’s in-house browser engine that powers many of its features under the hood.

Wilander notes that users might not notice a big change because ITP has been doing this more or less already. “It might seem like a bigger change than it is. But we’ve added so many restrictions to ITP since its initial release in 2017 that we are now at a place where most third-party cookies are already blocked in Safari.”

Apple first launched ITP within Safari nearly three years ago, where it immediately set a new bar for web privacy standards on both desktop and mobile by blocking some, but not all, cookies by default. Alongside the substantial privacy work of Mozilla’s Firefox, which also blocks third-party cookies by default as of last summer , Apple has been pioneering a machine learning approach to web tracking prevention that has made Safari one of the most widely used and secure web tools available.

In addition to blocking third-party cookies across the board and by default, Wilander says ITP now has safeguards against trackers using the very nature of tracking prevention as a way to keep tabs on users . He adds that the new feature set also ensures that websites and trackers can’t use login IDs to digitally fingerprint users who might otherwise be using tracking prevention or other privacy tools.

Wilander thanks Google for helping Apple improve ITP

“Full third-party cookie blocking makes sure there’s no ITP state that can be detected through cookie blocking behavior. We’d like to again thank Google for initiating this analysis through their report,” he writes, referencing Google’s research published earlier this year on ITP that revealed the possibility of using some elements of it as a fingerprint. (Apple had to disable the Do Not Track feature in Safari in 2019 for similar reasons.)

Wilander goes on to detail some other, more technical elements of the ITP update. But in general, he says Safari is again setting a new bar for web privacy that he and Apple hope other companies will follow.

“Safari continues to pave the way for privacy on the web, this time as the first mainstream browser to fully block third-party cookies by default. As far as we know, only the Tor Browser has featured full third-party cookie blocking by default before Safari, but Brave just has a few exceptions left in its blocking so in practice they are in the same good place. We know Chrome wants this behavior too and they announced that they’ll be shipping it by 2022,” he writes. “We will report on our experiences of full third-party cookie blocking to the privacy groups in W3C to help other browsers take the leap.”

How to update safari on mac.

How do you update an app with no update button?

Quick Links

Keeping safari updated, how to update safari in system preferences.

It's a good practice to keep your web browser constantly updated for security reasons , but Apple Safari on Mac doesn't have an update button. Here's how to keep Safari updated.

Every year, Apple releases new features for Safari, and you usually install them without realizing it because they're linked to macOS updates that you get in System Preferences.

But because Safari is a browser, Apple often lets you update to the latest version of Safari without installing the next big OS release. For example, while Safari 14.0 came bundled in macOS Big Sur , macOS Catalina users can still update to it. Apple also provides regular security updates to older versions of Safari, which is the main reason why  we recommend that you keep it updated .

Related: Why You Should Update All Your Software

To update Safari, you'll have to use the Software Update feature in System Preferences. To get there, click the Apple icon in the top-left corner of the screen.

In the menu that appears, choose the "System Preferences" option.

In System Preferences, click "Software Update."

The Software Update panel will show you whether there are any software updates available for your Mac. If there are, you have two choices.

If you want to install the latest operating system along with the latest version of Safari, just click the "Update Now" button and follow the process.

Related: Why You Should Update Your Web Browser

If you only want to install an update to Safari, click "More Info" under the list of available updates to see a detailed list of all updates.

After clicking "More info," a panel will appear listing the updates available for your Mac. Make sure that the "Safari" update is selected, and uncheck "macOS" if you don't want to install a system update along with it. When you're ready, click "Install Now."

After a while, the Safari update will be installed on your Mac.

Once the update process is finished, you can safely quit the System Preferences app using the red Close button in the corner of the window.

Since this process is somewhat confusing and non-obvious, we recommend enabling the auto-update feature to keep Safari and your Mac updated. Good luck!

Apple updates Safari on iOS and Mac to block third-party cookies

Safari is getting better at protecting you on the web.

Safari is blocking third-party cookies. 

Annoyed at how much data companies gather from your web browsing? Apple's giving Safari on iOS and MacOS an update to help. 

Announced Tuesday by Apple WebKit engineer John Wilander in a blog post on the WebKit site, the move fully blocks third-party cookies, bringing the latest version of Safari in-line with other browsers like Tor. (WebKit is the browser engine that powers Safari.)

Google said in a blog post of its own earlier this year that it hopes to add similar functionality to Chrome "within two years." 

Cookies allow for tracking behavior across websites, something that has been under increasing scrutiny in recent years as the internet community began taking stock of how much data was being collected online by these trackers, known as third-party cookies and often used by social networks and advertising companies. With this new update, the newest Safari will no longer allow those cookies to operate.

In tweets accompanying his blog post, Wilander says that Apple will report back its experience to privacy groups such as the Worldwide Web Consortium to "help other browsers take the leap." 

This update takes several important steps to fight cross-site tracking and make it more safe to browse the web. First of all, it paves the way. We will report on our experiences of full third-party cookie blocking to the privacy groups in W3C to help other browsers take the leap. — John Wilander (@johnwilander) March 24, 2020

The move is Apple's latest to fight against data trackers. Last year the company built a new browser technology called Privacy Preserving Ad Click Attribution. It was designed to let advertisers figure out when their ads successfully got you to buy something, but without tracking you across the internet and harvesting personal details to do so. 

The company has taken other steps to try and limit the gathering of people's information, including creating Sign In with Apple , a way for people to sign in to apps and websites without having to necessarily divulge personal information such as their actual email address. 

The new version of Safari is out now in iOS and iPadOS 13.4 and in Safari version 13.1 on MacOS.

iOS 17 Safari Features: Profiles, Locked Private Browser, Shared Passwords, Updated Tracking Prevention and More

With every update to the iOS operating system, Apple adds new features to the built-in apps like Safari. In iOS 17 , Safari gains new privacy functionality, improvements to search, updated Siri integration, and more.

In ‌iOS 17‌, Apple expanded on Tab Groups with a Profile feature that is designed to let you separate your browsing for different use cases. You can create a "Work" profile and a "Personal" profile, for example, so all of your work-related browsing is kept separate from your personal browsing.

• Open up the Settings app.
• Scroll down to Safari.
• Tap on New Profile.
• Select an icon, name, and background color for the profile.
• Choose your settings for Favorites and Tabs.

From there, you can edit profiles by tapping into them in the Settings app. In Safari, tap on the Tabs icon with two overlapping squares, then tap on the middle icon and choose the "Profile" option to change which profile is active.

Locked Private Browsing Window

Private browsing windows are now locked and require secondary authentication to unlock and access. If you hand your unlocked phone over to someone and they attempt to open your Safari private browsing tab, access will be denied without a second Face ID / Touch ID scan or a passcode.

• Open the Settings app.
• Tap on Safari.
• Scroll down to Require ‌Face ID‌ (or ‌Touch ID‌) to Unlock Private Browsing.
• Tap the toggle to turn it off and confirm with a ‌Face ID‌/‌Touch ID‌ scan. When disabled, the toggle will be gray.

Private Search Engine

In iOS 16 you can choose a default search engine to use with Safari, but in ‌iOS 17‌, you can choose separate search engines for standard browsing and private browsing.

• Tap on Private Search Engine.
• Tap on one of the Search Engine options to select it.
• Exit out of the Settings.

Tracking URLs

URLs in ‌iOS 17‌ can be stripped of all tracking information appended to the end of the URL so that websites cannot track your browsing using URL identifiers. This function is enabled automatically for private browsing in ‌iOS 17‌, but it can be turned on for all browsing.

• Tap on Advanced.
• Tap on Advanced Tracking and Fingerprinting Protection.
• Toggle on "All Browsing."

Turning this on will ensure that all URLs opened in Safari will strip the additional tracking information that's sometimes pasted on to the end of a URL.

Hide IP Address From Websites

In ‌iOS 17‌, there is an option to hide IP address from both trackers and websites or only trackers when using the iCloud Private Relay feature. With Trackers and Websites selected, IP address will be kept cloaked and websites will not be able to determine your location using that information.

Search Improvements

Search is more responsive in ‌iOS 17‌, so it brings up search results more quickly. It also brings up a wider range of search suggestions for you to choose from.

Listen to Page

‌Siri‌ in ‌iOS 17‌ can read a website to you, which is useful if you come across a long-form article or other content that you want to listen to while you do something else. The feature works as long as Reader View is available on a website.

• Open up Safari.
• Navigate to the content that you want ‌Siri‌ to read.
• Tap on the Aa icon in the address bar.
• Select the Listen to Page option.

From there, ‌Siri‌ will begin to read the content on the page. You can pause by tapping on the Pause Listening option, and resume with the Resume Listening option. If you lock your display, you will get dedicated playback controls.

‌Siri‌ will also read a page if you open up a website to a selected article and ask ‌Siri‌ to "Read this to me."

Shared Passwords and Passkeys

In ‌iOS 17‌ (and iPadOS 17 / macOS Sonoma ) there is an option to securely share passwords and passkeys with friends and family members. With the sharing feature, passwords for shared media accounts, utilities, bills, and more can be provided to multiple people.

This is not strictly a Safari feature, but it does make logging into sites where you use shared login information simpler.

Privacy Settings

Note that privacy-focused settings that include Block All Cookies, Privacy Preserving Ad Measurement, and Check for Apple Pay have been relocated from the "Privacy & Security" section of the Safari settings to the "Advanced" section, which is more hidden.

A rundown on all of the new features in the ‌iOS 17‌ update can be found in our comprehensive iOS 17 roundup .

Does safari support third-party cookies, how do i allow third-party cookies on safari, how do i stop safari from blocking third-party cookies, related articles, enable third-party cookies on safari [mac – iphone – ipad].

Updated on: February 08, 2024

First of all, what are third-Party cookies?

Third-party cookies are created by websites other than the one you are visiting. As the name suggests (third-party), they are made by external parties focused on advertising, retargeting, and providing tracking services .

Like standard cookies, third-party cookies store information about the user that the domain that collects them can use later.

Unlike first-party cookies, which try to improve the user experience on the web, third-party cookies are focused on enhancing online marketing, primarily through image advertising. They save user information that includes: gender, age, and user behavior (to determine things like what the users favor and what they avoid.)

The cookies present personalized ads that promote online marketing campaigns based on the user information collected. You can decide whether enable third-party cookies on your web browser or block them.

In this article, you will learn how to enable third-party cookies on Safari .

Safari is one of the most prominent web browsers currently in use. It is the default web browser for Apple devices. For security reasons, third-party cookies are blocked on Safari by default.

However, you can enable third-party cookies on Safari by following a few simple steps on any of your Apple devices. Whether you have a MacBook, an iPhone, or an iPad, let’s talk about enabling the cookies.

Here are the steps to enable third-party cookies on Safari. IOS (iPhone and iPad) settings are the same because they share the same operating system.

Allow Third-party Cookies On Mac

Launch the Safari browser by clicking its icon (it looks like a blue compass).

Click “Safari ”, which is next to the Apple icon.

A dropdown menu will appear from which you can select “Preferences” .

Click the “Privacy” tab, which is in the top panel.

Navigate to “Cookies and Website Data” and un-tick the option “Block all cookies” . This will allow 3rd party cookies on Safari.

Allow Third-Party Cookies on iPhone/iPad iOS 11

Go to “Settings” .

Scroll down to “ Safari ” and click on it.

Under “Privacy and Security” turn off “Prevent Cross-Site Tracking ”. Also, turn off “Block All Cookies” (Turning off makes the green bar go white.)

Do you know you can also use Safari to do reverse image search on Mac ?

Allow Third Party Cookies on iPad iOS 10 and others

Scroll down to Safari and click on it.

Under “Privacy and Security”, click on “ Block All Cookies ” .

Select “Always Allow” or “Allow from Websites I Visit” from the dropdown menu. This will allow 3rd party cookies on Safari.

Safari is set to block third-party cookies automatically. However, if you use a MacBook and need the browser to stop blocking third-party cookies, you can follow the steps mentioned above to enable third-party cookies on Safari.

At step five, deselect the option “Block Cookies” under the cookies and website data. However, this option allows cookies from all websites to be displayed, which might disrupt your browsing experience.

To cut down the number of websites that display cookies, you can check the option “Allow from websites I visit.” With this option, Safari won’t be able to block third-party cookies on the websites you visit frequently with this option enabled, allowing you to browse uninterrupted and conveniently.

How to Clear Your Browser’s Cache, and Why You Should

Every web browser has what's called a cache: a temporary storage space for web pages that syncs online content to your computer or mobile device. This syncing is designed to help websites load up faster and put less strain on your internet bandwidth.

It's a good idea, and it works well most of the time, which is why every browser does it. However, it can cause problems. By its very nature, cached content can fall out of date. Browsers will try to ensure this doesn't happen, but it can, and that might mean you're looking at information, links, and images that are no longer accurate or relevant.

What's more, discrepancies between cached content and what's actually on the internet can also cause all kinds of weird bugs, like pages not loading properly or web apps not functioning.

Cached content can also represent a security vulnerability. Data stored on your computer about the websites you've visited can tell a story of your online activity—and while it would require physical access to your computer and a skilled hacker to find it, it's a possibility.

For all these reasons, you might want to regularly clear out cached pages. Clearing the cache effectively resets the browser's relationship to the webpage, and it can often fix problems with a site.

Note that cached files are different than cookies . Cookies are bits of information saved by websites that tell them details about who you are and where you're located—so you don't have to log in every time you visit Gmail, for example. The cache holds different information, like images and page furniture.

There are reasons to clear your browser's cookies too, but we're going to focus on the cache here. This is how to do the job no matter what browser you're using.

Google Chrome

Clearing the cache in Google Chrome.

In Chrome on the desktop, click the three dots (top right), then Settings . Open up the Privacy and security tab, click Clear browsing data , and then select Cached images and files under the Basic tab.

By Carlton Reid

By Scott Gilbertson

By Boone Ashworth

By Lauren Goode

The drop-down menu up at the top lets you choose the time range for the cache clear out—anything from the last hour to all time. (You'll be shown how much data is in the cache in each case.) When you're ready, click Clear data to confirm the action.

It's a similar process if you're using Chrome for Android or iOS. Tap the three dots (top right on Android, bottom right on iOS), then Settings and Privacy and security . Choose Clear browsing data to find the Cached images and files option.

Mozilla Firefox

Emptying the cache in Firefox takes a couple of clicks.

Over on Firefox for the desktop, click the menu button (three horizontal lines, top right), then choose Settings . The options you need can be found on the Privacy & Security tab by clicking on Clear Data .

The next tab shows you how much data is stored in the cache, which here is referred to as Cached Web Content . Make sure this checkbox is selected, then click Clear to wipe everything currently in the cache.

With Firefox on mobile, the menu button is the three dots up in the top right corner (Android) or the three lines in the bottom right corner (iOS). Tap this button and Settings , then Delete browsing data (Android) or Data Management (iOS) to clear the cache.

Microsoft Edge

Edge will tell you how much data is in the cache.

If Edge is your browser of choice, on the desktop you click the three dots (top right), then Settings , and then open up the Privacy, search, and services tab. Click Choose what to clear next to Clear browsing data now .

Make sure the option for Cached images and files is checked on the next dialog, and choose the time range you want covered in the drop-down menu (from Last hour to All time ). Click Clear now to confirm and empty the cache.

If you're using Edge on Android or iOS, tap the three horizontal lines in the bottom right corner, then Settings , then Privacy and security , and Clear browsing data . You'll see the Cached images and files checkbox on the next screen.

Apple Safari

Safari deals with the cache and cookies together.

When it comes to Safari on macOS, you don't get quite as much control: Cached data and cookies are combined together in one pile, so you have to clear both or neither. Pick Settings from the Safari menu, open the Privacy tab, and click Manage Website Data .

All of the sites that have stored data on your computer are listed, together with the type of data—cache, cookies, or both. Select a website and click Remove to delete the data for that website; to wipe all local data from all websites, click Remove All .

For Safari on iOS and iPadOS, open the main Settings screen, then tap Safari , Advanced , and Website Data . Tap Remove All Website Data to erase everything, or choose Edit then tap the red delete button next to a site to wipe the cookies and cache for that specific site.

Additional Information About iPhone Cookies

Let’s talk about cookies. No, not the kind you eat with milk! I’m talking about the tiny pieces of data websites store on your device. If you’ve got an iPhone, you’ve probably seen messages about cookies popping up while browsing. So, what’s the deal? Are they good, bad, or just plain confusing? Let’s break it down.

A Crumbly Introduction to Cookies

Imagine walking into your favorite store and the salesperson remembers your name, what you last bought, and even your favorite color. It feels pretty special, right? That’s sort of what cookies do for websites. They help sites remember stuff about you, making your online experience smoother. When a website remembers your login details, shopping cart items, or settings, that’s cookies working their magic.

Why Would I Want to Allow Cookies on My iPhone?

Smooth Sailing : Websites use cookies to make things faster and easier. Hate typing in your username and password every single time? Cookies have your back!

Personal Touch : Ever noticed ads or content that seem like they were picked just for you? Cookies help websites tailor things to your taste.

Remember the Details : Whether it’s saving items in a shopping cart or keeping track of your progress in a game, cookies store these little details.

Sounds Great, But Are There Any Downsides?

Of course, like everything, cookies have a flip side. Sometimes, they can be a tad nosy. If you’re someone who values privacy, you might not like the idea of websites tracking what you’re up to. And let’s be real, nobody likes too many ads. Cookies can lead to a lot of personalized ads, which can sometimes feel overwhelming.

What happens if I block all cookies?

When you block all cookies, websites may not function as intended. You might need to sign in every time or some features might not work.

Can I choose which websites save cookies?

Yes! Safari on iPhone lets you choose which sites you trust. This is a middle ground between blocking all cookies and allowing them everywhere.

Do cookies harm my iPhone?

Cookies themselves are harmless. They’re just data. But, if a website is shady, it might misuse cookies. It’s always good to only allow cookies from sites you trust.

How often should I clear cookies from my iPhone?

Clearing cookies is like spring cleaning. You can do it whenever you feel your browsing is getting cluttered. Some folks do it monthly, while others, only when there’s an issue.

What’s the difference between cookies and cache?

While cookies store details about your interactions, cache is like a memory bank that helps websites load faster. They’re both there to make your life easier, but they do different things.

More About Cookies

For those who dive deep, there’s more to cookies than meets the eye. There are various types like session cookies, which vanish once you close your browser, and persistent cookies that hang around longer. Plus, there’s a difference between first-party cookies (from the site you’re on) and third-party cookies (from advertisers or others). You can even dive into settings on your iPhone to tweak these specifics if you’re feeling adventurous.

In conclusion, cookies on your iPhone can be friends or foes – it all depends on how you see them. They sure make life online easier, but if privacy is your jam, you’ve got controls in your hands. Either way, now you’re equipped with the knowledge to make an informed choice. So, to allow or not to allow? The cookie crumbles in your court!

Delete, allow and manage cookies in Chrome

You can choose to delete existing cookies, allow or block all cookies, and set preferences for certain websites.

Important: If you are part of the Tracking Protection test group, you will see a new Chrome setting for managing third-party cookies called "Tracking Protection." Learn more about Tracking Protection .

What cookies are

Cookies are files created by websites you visit. By saving information about your visit, they make your online experience easier. For example, sites can keep you signed in, remember your site preferences, and give you locally relevant content.

There are 2 types of cookies:

• First-party cookies: Created by the site you visit. The site is shown in the address bar.
• Third-party cookies: Created by other sites. A site you visit can embed content from other sites, for example images, ads, and text. Any of these other sites can save cookies and other data to personalize your experience.

Delete all cookies

Important: If you delete cookies, you might get signed out of sites that remember you, and your saved preferences could be deleted. This applies any time a cookie is deleted.

• On your computer, open Chrome.

• Tip: If you are part of the Tracking Protection test group, select Tracking Protection instead.
• To confirm, click Delete .

Delete specific cookies

• Click See all site data and permissions .
• At the top right, search for the website's name.

• At the top, next to "Time range," click the dropdown.
• Choose a time period, such as the last hour or the last day.
• Check Cookies and other site data .
• Uncheck all the other items.
• Click Clear data .

Change your cookie settings

Important: If you don't allow sites to save cookies, sites may not work as expected. To manage first-party cookies, learn more about on-device site data .

You can allow or block cookies for any site.

You can allow or block third-party cookies by default.

• Tip: If you are part of the Tracking Protection test group, follow the “Tracking Protection” instructions instead .
• Allow third-party cookies .
• Block third-party cookies in Incognito mode .
• If you block third-party cookies, all third-party cookies from other sites are blocked unless the site is allowed on your exceptions list.

If you block third-party cookies by default, you can still allow them for a certain site.

• Next to "Allowed to use third party cookies," click Add .
• To create an exception for an entire domain, insert [*.] before the domain name. For example, [*.]google.com will match drive.google.com and calendar.google.com .
• You can also put an IP address or a web address that doesn't start with http:// .
• Select Add .

• Once the page reloads, the address bar shows “Third-party cookies allowed,” “Third-party cookies blocked,” or “Third-party cookies limited” depending on your settings.
• This option is only temporary and only for the site you’re on.
• Sites get added to the exception list automatically .
• If you temporarily allow third-party cookies on a site, that setting carries over into Incognito mode and you can't reset it from Incognito mode.

To allow related sites to see your activity within the group:

• Select Block third-party cookies .
• Turn Allow related sites to see your activity in the group on or off.

To show related sites in the same group:

• Choose a site.

• If you are part of the Tracking Protection test group, select Tracking Protection instead.

Sites you visit can embed content from other sites, for example images, ads, text, and even features — like a text editor or weather widget. These other sites can ask for permission to use info they’ve saved about you (often saved using cookies) in order for their content to function properly.

For example, imagine you normally compose documents on docs.google.com . While completing a task for school, you need to collaborate with other students on your school’s class portal that offers direct access to Google Docs. With your permission:

• Google Docs can access its third-party cookies while you use your school’s site, allowing a connection between the site and Google Docs.
• This may allow Google Docs to verify who you are, find your info, and save changes you make to your documents on the site.

In some cases, this info can be used to track your activity as you browse sites. As a privacy feature, you can decide when to allow embedded content to access your data for sites you trust.

Tip: The connection uses cookies and lasts for 30 days or as long as you remain active. You can stop allowing the connection anytime in Settings .

To allow or decline permission

When you browse a site that displays a prompt requesting for permission for the embedded content to use information they’ve saved about you:

• Select Allow to give the site access to information they’ve saved about you (using cookies)
• Select Don’t allow to deny access
• To stop allowing access, learn how to manage site settings permissions.

Manage your tracking protections

When turned on, Tracking Protection significantly limits sites from using third-party cookies to track you as you browse, except for limited cases to allow basic services to function. If you choose to, you can block third-party cookies completely in your settings. You can manage your Tracking Protection preferences in your “Privacy and Security” settings.

• Block all third-party cookies: When you toggle this on, features on some sites may not work. Chrome blocks all third-party cookies from sites you visit, including related sites .
• Send “Do not track” request with your browsing traffic: When you toggle this on, you request that sites not track you. Sites use their discretion whether to comply with the request. Learn more about "Do Not Track" .
• Choose which sites you allow to use third-party cookies: You can also check and edit which sites you allow to use third party cookies under “Sites allowed to use third-party cookies.” Learn how to allow third-party cookies .

1. Why does this resource exist?

Web browsers are going through fairly momentous shifts in order to better respond to the increasing number of data breaches and cases of data misuse by third parties.

Unfortunately, each browser (and the underlying browser engine) seems to have their own interpretation of how to best tackle the problem, which leads to a diverse set of features across the browser landscape.

What’s worse, the information about how these tracking protection mechanisms are deployed is all over the place: in release notes, in developer documentation, in Twitter threads, in working groups, in feature drafts, in bug patches, etc.

The purpose of the Cookie Status resource is to (attempt to) collect this information in one place for easy access and perusal.

There is no commercial agenda behind this project. In fact, there is no agenda other than knowledge transfer.

2. Why only these browsers?

Just to kick things off. Hopefully the open-source nature of this project will invite others to contribute details about browsers that are doing significant work with regard to user privacy.

3. What cookies / browser storage does Cookie Status set and why?

Cookie Status doesn’t use browser cookies, localStorage , or IndexedDB .

sessionStorage is used to add some functionality to navigation (marking visited pages, highlighting search terms).

Nothing in browser storage is sent to any third parties at any time.

If you see anything contrary to the above, please raise an issue about this.

How to Enable Cookies on an iPad

Cookies can get you personalized ads and suggestions

• Ithaca College

• Wichita Technical Institute

What to Know

• Safari: Settings > Safari > move Block All Cookies and Prevent Cross-Site Tracking sliders to off/white.
• Chrome: Settings > Chrome > move Allow Cross-Website Tracking slider to on/green.
• Cut down on intrusive advertising and tracking without disabling all cookies by using ad blockers.

Cookies are small files that websites add to your browser to improve your web browsing experience. This article explains how to enable cookies on the iPad in the Safari and Chrome web browsers.

How Do I Enable Cookies on an iPad?

Cookies are generally turned on by default, so in many cases, you won't need to enable them. So, if you haven't changed your cookie settings, you're all set! However, if you have ever changed your iPad privacy settings, you might have turned off cookies. If that's the case, follow these steps to enable cookies on an iPad:

Tap Settings .

Tap Safari .

Remember, cookies are added to your browser by websites, so you control this preference for each browser, not at the operating system level. Here's how to delete cookies if you need to.

Go to the Privacy & Security section. There are two cookie-related options:

• Block All Cookies: This is pretty obvious. If the slider is set to on/green, Safari will block every cookie from every website. Move the slider to off/white and cookies are enabled on your iPad.
• Prevent Cross-Site Tracking: This one is a bit trickier. These cookies are specifically for advertising. They don't generally provide the useful features some cookies offer. Cross-site tracking cookies are really just to help advertisers profile and target you . To allow every single cookie you encounter on the internet, leave this set to off/white. But, if you don't want to be profiled by advertisers, you can set this to on/green and still benefit from other kinds of cookies.

The second-most-popular iPad browser is Google Chrome. In Chrome for iPad, cookies are enabled by default and you can't disable them. The one cookie-related option you have in Chrome is to decide whether to let advertiser track you across sites . This is disabled by default, but you can allow it by going to Settings > Chrome > move the Allow Cross-Website Tracking slider to on/green.

What Are Browser Cookies?

As mentioned earlier, cookies are small files websites place on your device's web browser when you visit the site. These files can contain all sorts of information, including your preferences and history for that site. Cookies help connect to site traffic analytics and advertising platforms, and also make it easier to log in, save articles or products, and for the site to make recommendations to you.

Most people leave at least some cookies enabled on their devices, since browsing the web without any cookies at all makes the experience more difficult than it needs to be. Many privacy-conscious people, though, do block advertising cookies, since they see the amount of data advertisers try to collect on them and their online behavior as intrusive (because of this sort of use, cookies are being phased out ).

If you're concerned about your online privacy, we've got articles to help you block ads on your iPhone and iPad and to teach you about iPad and iPhone privacy settings .

To remove cookies from Safari on an iPad , go to Settings > Safari > Advanced > Website Data . From this screen, you can remove cookies and other data from an individual site by swiping left on its URL and choosing Delete . Alternatively, tap Remove All Website Data to clear everything at once.

You can clear website data in Chrome for iPad from inside the app. Select the More (three dots) menu, and then tap History . Choose Clear Browsing Data , and then make sure Cookies, Site Data has a checkmark next to it. Tap Clear Browsing Data again, and then confirm.
