Google has begun the much-delayed process of eliminating third-party cookies from its Chrome browser, a deprecation that it plans to complete by the end of 2024.

To help marketers on their cookieless journey, this video will unpack why cookies are being deprecated, the strengths and weaknesses of alternatives on offer and potential knock-on effects of cookie deprecation to consider. The episode covers:
- What is a third-party cookie?
- What are the main functions of the third-party cookie?
- Why is the third-party cookie being deprecated?
- What’s behind Chrome’s delay of cookie depreciation and why has it taken so long for alternatives to be developed, tested and adopted?
