 # User Contexts # {#user-contexts}
 
-A <dfn>user context</dfn> is an aggregation of browsing contexts that separates the browser state for browsing contexts in one user context from browsing contexts in another user context.
-The user agent contains at least one user context, the <dfn>default user context</dfn>. 
+A <dfn>user context</dfn> represents a collection of top-level navigables within a remote
+end. Each top-level navigable belongs to exactly one user contexts, and child
+navigables belong to the same user context as their parent.
 
-Note: User contexts are a WebDriver-specific abstraction to allow working with private browsing modes (https://www.w3.org/2001/tag/doc/private-browsing-modes/).
-While we don't want to pose any restrictions on the implementations of private browsing modes, we want to allow to perform basic operations with private browsing
-contexts. A user context can be seen as a user agent in terms of the Infra spec but currently WebDriver BiDi spec is not compliant with that definition of the user agent.
+Each user context represents an additional [=storage key=], so that no storage
+state is shared between different user contexts.
+
+A user context has a <dfn>user context id</dfn>, which is a string set upon
+context creation.
+
+Note: the infra spec uses the term "user agent" to refer to the same concept as
+user contexts. However this is not compatible with usage of the term "user
+agent" to mean the entire web client, which may contain multiple user contexts.
+Although this difference is not visible to web content, it can be observed via
+WebDriver, so we avoid reusing existing terminology.
