WebView & hybrid apps

Cookie consent inside native WebViews in

Many apps load marketing sites or logged-in web experiences inside embedded browsers. Secure Privacy still needs to run in that HTML context: inject the published banner and installation scripts from Domains → Installation as early as possible in the document head—whether the HTML is served remotely or injected through a native bridge. You are responsible for ensuring the WebView allows JavaScript and that local storage/cookies behave per OS policies. Use the general new-domain installation checklist for script copy; involve mobile engineers for bridge timing and cookie partitioning (ITP, WebView storage).

web + in-app web

Reuse the same Secure Privacy domain configuration when your app simply frames your site—avoid divergent notices between Safari Chrome and the in-app WebView.

Avoid double-loading with the mobile site

Implementation

Wire Secure Privacy into your WebView

Pattern: ensure the HTML loaded by the WebView includes the Secure Privacy scripts from Domains → Installation in the head. If the WebView loads your production website, you may already be covered—verify with a device build. If you load minimal HTML, inject the scripts via your server template or native evaluateJavaScript only after consulting security review.

01

Confirm the WebView URL

Identify whether the WebView loads your public site or a bespoke endpoint—match the domain in Secure Privacy.
