Abstract

See full text

A computer-implemented method for detecting the presence of web tracking may include identifying an Internet resource that may be retrieved from an initial domain and that may trigger a hypertext transfer protocol request directed to an additional domain that may be different from the initial domain, determining, based on a difference between the initial domain and the additional domain, that the hypertext transfer protocol request may include a third-party hypertext transfer protocol request, identifying a hypertext transfer protocol cookie that may be sent from the additional domain in response to the third-party hypertext transfer protocol request and determining, based on an expiration date of the hypertext transfer protocol cookie and the difference between the initial domain and the additional domain, that the hypertext transfer protocol cookie may include a third-party tracking cookie. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
