Clearing your browser's cache and cookies can often resolve a 403 Forbidden error because outdated or corrupted cached data, or expired session cookies, might be preventing your device from establishing a valid connection with the server. To do this on Android Chrome: Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > See all apps > Chrome > Storage & cache. Then tap 'Clear cache' and 'Clear storage' (which will also clear all cookies and site data). For other browsers, the steps are similar, typically found in the app's settings under 'Privacy' or 'Storage'.
