Sec-Private-State-Token-Lifetime header

Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The HTTP Sec-Private-State-Token-Lifetime Response Header is used by the Private State Token API during token redemption. It is sent by the redeemer server to indicate to the browser how long (in seconds) a redemption record should be cached for. The redemption record itself is sent in a Sec-Private-State-Token response header.

If the Sec-Private-State-Token-Lifetime header is omitted, the lifetime of the redemption record will be tied to the lifetime of the token verification key that confirmed the redeemed token's issuance.
