From https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/3338:

Access Removal

Storage access is granted for the life of the document and as long as the document's frame is attached to the DOM. This means:

    Access is removed when the sub frame navigates.
    Access is removed when the sub frame is detached from the DOM.
    Access is removed when the top frame navigates.
    Access is removed when the webpage goes away, such as a tab close.

In addition, the browser may decide to remove access on a timeout basis or on some dedicated user action such as switching cookie policy.
