Self-Destructing Cookies is an application (or website) that is designed to help protect a user's privacy and security on the internet. It works by automatically deleting cookies stored on a user's computer after a certain amount of time. This ensures that any data that was stored on the cookie, such as login credentials, is not stored for a long period of time and cannot be used by third parties to track a user's online activity. Self-Destructing Cookies also helps to prevent malicious websites from exploiting vulnerable cookies to gain access to a user's personal information. The application (or website) is easy to use and can be adjusted to fit the user's needs, such as the amount of time before a cookie is deleted. This helps to ensure that a user's privacy is maintained while they browse the web.
Discontinued. The extension is no longer in development. The latest version, 1.4.0, released in July 2014, can still be downloaded from the Chrome Web Store.
