Introduction
Google has initiated the phasing out of third-party cookies to improve user privacy and the overall online experience. Under Google's Privacy Sandbox project, support for third-party cookies will be gradually eliminated. In its place, Google is proposing alternative cookie functionalities and purpose-built APIs that support legitimate use cases while preserving user privacy. The phased implementation of these changes will start in January 2024.
Wildix is taking proactive measures to ensure that our services continue to work effectively even after this change. Additionally, it's important to note that users who have integrated Web CRM into Collaboration will need to take specific actions described below to maintain their integrations.

Method 2. Setting Partitioned cookies in your CRM
Another method is to implement partitioned cookies within your application. By setting partitioned cookies, you can maintain the functionality of your Web CRM without relying on traditional third-party cookies. Check Google’s documentation for the detailed instructions:
