Enjoy a private web browser — here are the online privacy features of Avira Secure Browser

Many websites, advertisers, and analysis companies track your online activities, sometimes even across multiple websites, to create a profile of you using the user data they collect and to show you personalized ads. An anti-tracking browser such as Avira Secure Browser helps you block that and cover your digital footprint. Not only can you use it to block web tracking but you can also hide your browser fingerprint.

While almost everyone now knows what tracking cookies are, browser fingerprinting is still something that few are familiar with. This increasingly common tracking method uses your unique browser configuration to identify you and track you across the internet. Special scripts collect information, including your browser version, the operating system you’re using and the software you have installed, your language settings, your screen resolution, and much more. Avira’s private browser has many features to help you block this and surf more privately.

• Anti-tracking: Helps you block unwanted web trackers.
• Anti-fingerprinting: Helps you hide your digital fingerprint — meaning your unique browser configuration, settings, and device information.
• Private mode: Helps you stop your browsing history from being saved during a session. Plus, it helps you delete cookies and cache files.
• Privacy cleaner: Helps you remove your browsing history and data stored in your browser, not only protecting your online privacy but also freeing up more storage space.
• Webcam guard: Notifies you if a website tries to access your webcam, so you can choose whether to allow it.
