Improve Your Online Privacy with Privacy Tweaks

Privacy Tweaks is a free Chrome extension developed by loora that aims to enhance your online privacy by offering ten different techniques. With this extension, you can easily make adjustments to your browsing settings and protect your personal information.

The extension features a toolbar popup UI where you can select and enable the desired tweaks. While a few tweaks are already selected by default, you have the flexibility to customize the settings according to your preferences. It's important to note that the behavior of the add-on may vary depending on your browser version and platform, so it's recommended to adjust the available settings related to timezone, geolocation, and proxy in the toolbar popup.

Privacy Tweaks offers a range of privacy-enhancing options, including blocking common ads, canvas fingerprint, font fingerprint, webgl fingerprint, audiocontext fingerprint, webrtc IP leakage, and most common trackers. Additionally, you can change your browser timezone, geolocation, and even set a custom socks5 proxy.

Please note that this extension was developed in collaboration with Yubi and was inspired by the Speed Tweaks add-on. If you encounter any bugs, you can report them by filling out the bug report form on the extension's homepage.

Improve your online privacy and take control of your browsing experience with Privacy Tweaks.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
