ClearURLs is an add-on based on the new WebExtensions technology and is optimized for Firefox and Chrome-based browsers. This extension will automatically remove tracking elements from URLs to help protect your privacy when browsing through the internet. For this purpose, we use a large catalog of rules, which is actively maintained by us and the community. Many websites use tracking elements in the URL to mark your online activity. All that tracking code is not necessary for a website to be displayed or work correctly and can therefore be removed, that is exactly what ClearURLs does. Prevents Google from rewriting the search results (prevents the insertion of tracking code). Prevents Yandex from rewriting the search results (prevents the insertion of tracking code). Prevents tracking injection over history API.
