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’re part of the test group that limits third-party cookies by default, you may find different settings for managing third-party cookies. Learn how to manage third-party cookie settings for test group users.

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:

Tip: Some sites may prompt you to accept or reject cookies.

Tips:

Allow related sites to access your activity

A company can define a group of sites that are related to each other. For example, a company might want to keep you signed in as you move between acme-music.example and acme-video.example.

If you allow or limit third-party cookies: Related sites are allowed to access your activity to personalize content or keep you signed in across sites.

If you block third-party cookies: It often prevents this kind of connection between sites. You can block third-party cookies while you allow sites in the same group to improve your experience.

About embedded content

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:

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 permission for the embedded content to use information they’ve saved about you:

Tips:

Manage third-party cookie settings for test group users

For a specific group of users, Google is testing features in Chrome that significantly limit sites from using third-party cookies to track you while browsing. If you’re part of the test group, third-party cookies are limited by default except where they are required to allow basic website services to function.

If you choose to, you can block third-party cookies completely in your settings. You can manage your third-party cookie preferences in your “Privacy and Security” settings.

  1. On your computer, open Chrome.
  2. At the top right, select More Settings .
  3. Select Privacy and security Third-party cookies.
  4. You can also choose advanced privacy protections:
