Safari ITP 2.3: Capped Lifetime For All Script-Writeable Website Data


I am a little confused about Safari's ITP 2.3 policy which caps the lifetime of script-writable storage in the browser to 7 days.

The official article states that:

After seven days of Safari use without the user interacting with a web page on website.example, all of website.example’s non-cookie website data is deleted.

This definitely includes localStorage. Does someone know for sure whether

are cleared as well?


Solution

  • Looking at the relevant Webkit commit, it clearly includes IndexedDB - it does not seem to include CacheStorage or ServiceWorker.
