Storage Access API

The Storage Access API is a key component of the Privacy Sandbox, designed to enable responsible data sharing between websites while respecting user privacy. It allows third-party websites to access and share information (like cookies) across sites, but only when specific user interaction and permission requirements are met. This prevents unwanted tracking and ensures that users have control over their data.

Storage Access is not a new concept. It is supported in all major browsers and has been successfully implemented in other browsers for many years. To understand the value and functionality of Storage Access, take a look at Mozilla's description of Storage Access, which highlights its role in improving web functionality while preserving privacy.
