How to identify which cookies are affected by ITP

Determining which cookies have been affected by ITP is an important step in deciding which cookies to save. Follow these steps to find out. 

To check/identify what cookies are affected by ITP:

1. Open Safari and go to your website. 

(You will need to enable and show the developer tools: See https://support.apple.com/guide/safari/use-the-developer-tools-in-the-develop-menu-sfri20948/mac)

2. Right-click your website and select Inspect Element. 

3. Click the Storage tab and select Cookies for your website in the left box.

4. Check the lifespan of your cookies. Cookies set to expire in 7 days are likely impacted by ITP. 

The above example from cookiesaver.io indicated that the cookies from Adobe Analytics, Google Analytics, Facebook, and our cookie consent are affected by ITP with a 7-day expiration date. 

Let's go through them one by one:

• Adobe Analytics (AMCV_DE7B0A...) is set in the root domain with a leading dot before cookiesaver.io (.cookiesaver.io), so that it is shared across subdomains to cookiesaver.io. The default expiration should be 2 years.
• Google Analytics (_ga) is set in the root domain with a leading dot before cookiesaver.io (.cookiesaver.io), so that it is shared across subdomains to cookiesaver.io. The default expiration should be 2 years.
• Facebook (_fbp) is set in the root domain with a leading dot before cookiesaver.io (.cookiesaver.io), so that it is shared across subdomains to cookiesaver.io. The default expiration should be 90 days.
• Cookiebot (CookieConsent) is set in the root domain without a leading dot before cookiesaver.io (cookiesaver.io) so that it is only readable from cookiesaver.io. The default expiration should be 1 year. Remember to set the "domain" value when adding this cookie.

This is an important preliminary step before adding cookies to your configuration to save them.
