The settings below are supposed to prevent this, however in Nightly, they are being cleared when closing tabs and force quitting, however if i only force quit without closing the tab, then the cookies are saved/uncleared

brave://settings/clearBrowserData Cookies and other data, site configuration and security (shield) are unticked

Steps to reproduce

  1. untick Cookies and other data, site configuration and security (shield), such as the first image
  2. set exceptions in allow apps to save data, https://www.reddit.com/ or https://chatgpt.com/
  3. Log to one website that you had an exception on
  4. Close the tab and force quit

The cookies are cleared and you are required to log-in again

notice: if you force quit brave, but not close the tab, then the cookie won’t be deleted
