Accessing privacy and security options

Visitors should click the three dots located in the top right corner of the browser window. This action opens a menu where users can scroll down to find the Settings option.

Blocking third-party cookies immediately

Inside the settings, users must navigate to Privacy and security to manage cookie behavior. Selecting the block option for third-party cookies is the first recommended step in this process.

Enabling do not track requests

The next measure involves turning on the Do Not Track feature within the same menu. This setting sends a request to websites, though individual sites may choose to ignore it.
