Add-on summary

Cookie Auto Delete is a lite extension that helps you quickly erase cookies for a tab when it closes (Tab-Only mode). Moreover, you can set the addon to remove cookies for all tabs when the browser is closed (Session-Only mode).

The toolbar icon serves as an ON|OFF switch to quickly turn the addon ON or OFF. This addon can potentially improve your privacy as it deletes cookies (and most importantly third-party cookies) which are used to track user's behavior across multiple websites. Please note that, if you want to switch modes, open the addon options and mark the desired option. Moreover, this addon has a whitelisting tool to easily exclude a domain from Cookie Auto Delete. Simply add a domain comma separate to the designated area on the options page.

To report bugs, please fill the bug report form on the addon's homepage (https://mybrowseraddon.com/cookie-auto-delete.html).

User reviews

The whitelist would not save for me, so I could not specify which sites to exempt, and for me that means not using it. Edge Version 94.0.992.31. There was no "save" button on the whitelist page, and when I close it the whitelist wasn't saved. Also using uBlock Origin and Adblock Complete.
