# Partitioned cookies

  
**CHIPS**

Cookies Having Independent Partitioned State (CHIPS) is a Privacy Sandbox proposal that will allow developers to opt a cookie into “partitioned” storage, with separate cookie jars per top-level site.

A partitioned third-party cookie is tied to the top-level site where it’s initially set and cannot be accessed from elsewhere. The aim is to allow cookies to be set by a third-party service, but only read within the context of the top-level site where they were initially set.  
  
**Ex**\-  
A user visits [`https://site-1.example`](https://site-1.example), which embeds content from [`https://3rd-party.example`](https://3rd-party.example). [`https://3rd-party.example`](https://3rd-party.example) sets a cookie on the user's device.

The user visits [`https://site-2.example`](https://site-2.example), which also embeds [`https://3rd-party.example`](https://3rd-party.example). This new instance of [`https://3rd-party.example`](https://3rd-party.example) is still able to access the cookie set when the user was on the previous page.

**How It Works  
**Browsers with CHIPs support provide a new attribute for the Set-Cookie HTTP header — Partitioned  
  
`Set-Cookie: __Host-example=34d8g; SameSite=None; Secure; Path=/; Partitioned;`
