Sites that clear cookies when you close them


Description of the issue:
Cookies not cleared on tab close.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Add google.com to “Sites that clear cookies when you close them”
  2. Open google.com and click to allow cookies.
  3. Check that cookies have been stored in Brave.
  4. Close tab
  5. Check cookies stored on browser and find Google cookies still there.

Expected result:

Google cookies should have been deleted.

Brave Version( check About Brave):
Version 1.44.101 Chromium: 106.0.5249.65 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Additional Information:
I really want all non-whitelisted cookies to be deleted on tab close, but that doesn’t seem to be offered by Brave, so I’m trying to use the much more cumbersome solution of naming sites I want cookies cleared for upon tab close. However, it doesn’t seem to be working, or I am not doing right. All help greatly appreciated.

Hello @bravoguy

Thank you for reaching out and I’m happy to help you, could you kindly go to Settings > privacy and click cookies and other site data. Then select sites that can always use cookies and add them (be sure that other options aren’t checked)
Then press clear data.

I hope it helps, please let me know and have a great day.
