With Cookiebro Cookie Manager you can manage/filter/block browser cookies that can be used to track you online.
Features:
– Configurable automatic deletion periodically (even every minute)
– Whitelist – define which domains can set cookies
– Blacklist – define domains from which cookies are dropped and not saved at all
– Easy to use interface – click the extension icon to add a site or domain wildcard to the whitelist
– Blacklist / Block single cookies (wildcards supported): domain/cookieName
– Whitelist single cookies (wildcards supported): domain/cookieName
– Can protect session cookies to prevent accidental logout from currently open sites
– Can drop HTTP Response headers ETag and Link from blacklisted sites to prevent tracking
– Can delete unwanted cookies, indexedDB and localStorage caches + pluginData (e.g. Flash Cookies) at browser startup
– View, Edit, Create, Delete, Search cookies with a tree-based Cookie Editor
– Export/Import as JSON
– “Clear domain data” popup action can also remove: IndexedDB, sessionStorage, cacheStorage, Service Workers, localStorage and webCache on-demand
This plugin does what it says it does and it does it well. It has only two limitations, for my personal use at least. 1) When it comes to automatic deletion, only the cookies make use of the whitelist or blacklist. While you can auto-delete indexedDB, localstorage, pluginData and service workers, this does not make use of the whitelist or blacklist. 2) The plugin settings don’t sync across devices, but it does allow export and import, so this can be worked around fairly easily.
Yes, it’s the best cookie manager for Firefox and Chrome. It’s stable, functional, and the minimal UI is sufficiently usable. I came from Cookie Auto Delete, but that extension would use up too much CPU. Switched to Cookiebro and it’s been much better.
Features request: 1) could you add “Clear current domain cookies”? This is useful for developers and troubleshooting web site issues. If the current domain is whitelisted, “clear unwanted cookies” will not clear them, even if the user wants to. The workaround is to go to the log and delete each. It would be nice to have the option to clear all current domain cookies. 2) is it possible to NOT clear the cookies of a domain that was visited within X minutes of the ‘Delete unwanted every X minutes’ option? I was online shopping and the items in my cart disappeared. I realized it must have been Cookiebro coming around to clean unwanted cookies.
Thank you.
Best cookie manager available, I’ve tried several and this has it all. Auto-delete, great UI, edit cookies, and view of current cookies.
Cookiebro is probably the best cookie manager for Chrome and Firefox, built on the bones of the now-abandoned Vanilla cookie manager extension (which I missed).
I found it easy to use, and relatively intuitive. Keep cookies in whitelists and block cookies in blacklists, and easily purge the rest cookies on-demand or automatically. Import or export lists as a simple text file that is simple to edit. The cookie log view and cookie editor are powerful tools whether managing privacy or just debugging.
Minor issues: While adding and removing list items is easy, one can’t edit them in place. For example, if I have “getpocket.com” in my whitelist, and want to change it to “*.getpocket.com”, I have to add the latter as a new element, and then remove the former. I also wish the extension would sync settings across browsers, so I didn’t have to spend as much time importing and exporting.
For managing and auto-deleting cookies, also try the excellent Cookie AutoDelete (CAD) extension. Choosing between that and Cookiebro is a matter of personal preference.
Is it possible to make an addition to Blacklist from a pop-up window, where the addition to Whitelist.
Incredible addon! Takes the reigns over from Vanilla Cookie Manager which was a great addon, that no longer works.
Cookiebro Has a similar and simple gui in which you can click the toolbar button to whitelist or more whitelists for sites and domain rangers so no digging in options each time. It clears cookies as expected, keeps protected whitelisted cookies, AND clear sessionid and local storage (which vanilla never did).
Fantastic addon, a real necessity to stay in control of your cookies.
Just wish the toolbar button was better at showing if the site you were on had a whitelist rule already set or not.
1) Seleção múltipla precisa melhorar. 2) Importação e exportação não funciona bem entre Firefox e Opera (com a extensão “Install Chrome Extensions”).
This is a very good extension for cookie management.
However it lacks an option to add websites to the cookie blacklist via the toolbar button.
To make this add more effective everybody should use the Cookiebro blacklist and add the following entry: *.*
When that is added ALL cookies from all websites will be blocked and you will need to add cookies to your whitelist via the toolbar button.
This Block All Cookies is an option which should have been made available in this extension.
