Abstract
The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, a method that includes receiving, from a web browser, a request for a token that authorizes a third party server to access a user's data stored by a content provider server. The token specifies a first scope of authorization that indicates a portion of the user's data that the third party server is permitted to access. The method also includes determining if the first scope is substantially the same as or a subset of a second scope of a previously issued token and transmitting the token in response to the received request if the first scope is determined to be substantially the same as or a subset of the second scope.
