Hi,
anyone know a good tool to check all the cookies on a website and a description of the cookie ?
tom
I canât recommend any in particular but if you Google âcookie audit onlineâ lots turn up.
You check the value of cookies in the Chrome Dev Tools. (Safari too)
command + option + i
âApplicationsâ tab, then see âCookiesâ in the left sidebar. (this example is the Google Search landing page)
See the âValueâ column for the data that stored there.
edit: There are also website that will report all this info to you about your cookies. do a search. most GDPR sevices will have a tool you can use free. They also categorize the cookies which is nice for folks that donât know what each cookie might be for.

Thanks @Flashman and @Whittfield
Is this the same when I click on Safari - Settings - Cookies ?
There I see a few cookies and also tracking tools ? Google analytics âĻ But when I use your way I donât see the analytic tools âĻ
Is this different ? Cookies and Analytic tools ?!
thanks for your help
Update: I see cookies called _ga âĻ I think this is analytics âĻ
Yes, thatâs the first party cookie that stores the âclient idâ. (not to be confused with âuser idâ. separate feature, can be used together.)
