Why would I need anti-tracking software?

Protecting your online privacy is crucial in today’s world. You need to ensure third parties aren’t tracking your web activity, behavior, and browsing history with web tracking cookies to exploit you with targeted ads — or worse, accessing your sensitive personal data and banking information. Anti-tracking software can add more privacy to your online experience and ensure you aren’t being exploited by online tracking.

What is anti-tracking?

Anti-tracking refers to a specific type of software that enhances your online privacy. It blocks tenacious, hard-to-see online tracking technology like digital fingerprinting. The software helps you stop organizations from using both these things as a means to collect data about your online browsing activity. This can prevent them from targeting you with online ads based on harvested data about your online habits.

AVG AntiTrack can do all these things and also alerts you whenever anyone attempts to use web tracking techniques against you. With both Windows and Mac support, AVG AntiTrack is a great option for all your computers and notebooks.

How can a tracker blocker protect my online privacy?

AVG AntiTrack is powerful anti-tracking software that warns you of any tracking attempts and tells you who’s trying to track you. It scrambles your digital fingerprint so that anyone who’s trying to monitor your online activities can’t access your data or target you with invasive ads.

Who could be tracking me online?

Governments, employers, spouses, hackers, advertisers, and marketers are just a few of the groups who could potentially track your online activities. Companies like Facebook and Google collect your data after following you around the internet via web and ad tracking. They’ll then use this data to aid advertisers in targeting their ads to better match your perceived interests.

Is AVG AntiTrack the same as a VPN?

Although they both protect your online privacy, AVG AntiTrack is not a VPN. AVG Secure VPN encrypts your connection, disguises your IP address, and hides important details about you from your ISP. AVG AntiTrack scrambles your online fingerprint and removes traces of your online browsing activities. Using AVG AntiTrack alongside trusted VPN software is the best way to preserve your online privacy.
