Intelligent Tracking Prevention

Hello,


I work for a company that uses cookies to do audience measurement on different websites.

I read the Webkit ITP article from John Wilander:

https://webkit.org/blog/7675/intelligent-tracking-prevention/,

and now, I try to see if the cookies of our websites are really not usable anymore 24 hours after the last interaction.


This is the scenario I do:

- Day 0: visit Tracking.com website install "Identify" cookie (as first party cookie)

- Day 0 + 1h: visit Website.com for which we measure audience, 3rd party "Identify" cookie is well sent to Tracking.com

"Do nothing with the browser in between"

- Day 0 + 36h: visit again Website.com, 3rd party "Identify" cookie is still correctly sent to Tracking.com.


According to ITP specification, I was expecting the cookie to be not sent since I didn't interact with Tracking.com for more than 24 hours.

Is it because ITP doesn't classify Tracking.com as having the ability to track the user cross-site?


How can I be sure that ITP will not prevent the measurement to be used at some point?


Thanks for your help,


Loïc

Whether or not your cookies get blocked depends on the score Tracker.com gets from Safari's ML algorithm - not merely the time since last interaction.
