Learn about third-party sign-in

Third-party sign-in is a type of federated sign-in that allows you to log in with an identity service, instead of creating unique login credentials for each individual website you visit. If you allow third-party sign-in prompts, then as you browse the web, you may receive dialogs that ask if you want to sign in with an identity service.
