This document outlines details on our implementation of bounce tracking mitigations.

• Bounce tracking mitigations has been launched by default in Chrome for users who have opted-in to blocking third-party cookies. If you have any feedback, we'd love to hear it.
• Chrome platform status.

The Privacy Sandbox timeline provides implementation timings for bounce tracking mitigation and other Privacy Sandbox proposals.

Browser vendors are now actively removing third-party cookies from the web. Consequently, some platform trackers are introducing bounce tracking.

The bounce tracking mitigations proposal aims to:

• Reduce or eliminate the ability of bounce tracking to recognize people across contexts.
• Prevent bounces from simulating third-party cookies when third-party cookies are disabled, either due to browser policy or user settings.
• Avoid breaking supported use cases valued by the user that are implemented using redirects.
• Mitigate the impact of short-lived domains that may not be adequately addressed by other privacy interventions that rely on blocklists.
• Avoid using block or allow lists to decide which websites are affected.

Our proposal will address bounce tracking in the following use cases:

• Third-party cookie simulation: Sites that use redirection to a third-party tracker to create a cookie bypass browser settings. To mitigate this issue, the browser could wipe the tracker's domain storage.
• Outgoing redirection: Sites that redirect all outgoing links through a tracker domain. To mitigate this issue, the browser could wipe the tracker's domain storage.

Chrome intends to protect users from bounce tracking by periodically deleting state for these tracking sites. The process will work as follows:

1. Chrome will monitor navigations and internally flag sites that are part of a "bounce." This means a navigation redirected through the site. This includes both server-initiated redirections and client-side redirections where JavaScript programmatically triggers a navigation.
2. Chrome will periodically examine the list of flagged sites and check to see if the user has actively used the site by interacting with it within the last 45 days. This interaction can occur before, during, or after the bounce was detected.
3. If the site does not have any user interaction recorded within the last 45 days and third-party cookies are blocked, then the site storage will be deleted shortly after the next redirection flow is triggered through this site.

These changes were launched by default in Chrome in October 2023 for users who have opted-in to blocking third-party cookies.

Redirect flows that are out-of-scope include: federated authentication, SSO and payments. This is because these flows, while similar to bounce tracking scenarios, involve direct user interaction. You can find further information in the explainer.

• Federated authentication: Federated authentication occurs when a user clicks on a Login with Identity Provider button on the web, for example, Facebook, GitHub, or Google.
• Single sign-on: When a site uses single sign-on (SSO), the user expects to sign in with the identity provider once and then be automatically signed-in for all visits on other sites.
• Payments: There are a wide variety of payment flows in use on the web today and the proposal aims to have them continue functioning.
• Private Advertising APIs: Bounce tracking mitigations won't affect storage managed by Private Advertising APIs, such as interest groups, Attribution data or Shared Storage.

There are some security considerations for this proposal that have been outlined in the bounce tracking mitigations explainer.

This implementation is available by default in Chrome for users who have opted-in to blocking third-party cookies. Bounce tracking mitigations were implemented for those users in Chrome in October 2023.

This proposal largely only adds value when third-party cookies are disabled. Third-party cookies can be used to achieve mostly the same results as bounce tracking. Therefore it is not a goal to enable these mitigations when third-party cookies are enabled.

The bounce tracking mitigations are now available by default in Chrome. If you have any feedback, we'd love to hear it.

• GitHub: Read the proposal, raise questions and participate in discussion.
• Developer support: Ask questions and join discussions on the Privacy Sandbox Developer Support repository.
• Chromium bug tracker: You can provide feedback in the Chromium bug tracker using the Privacy>NavTracking component.
