Accept-CH header
{{securecontext_header}}
The HTTP Accept-CH {{Glossary("response header")}} may be set by a server to specify which client hint headers should be included by the client in subsequent requests.
To ensure client hints are sent reliably, the Accept-CH header should be persisted for all secure requests.
