What Does IDX Privacy Do?
Every time you use the internet, you leave the traces of personal information behind. That information is then gathered and matched with dozens of unique identifiers to create a profile.
Computer experts call that information tracking “digital fingerprint”, as it can help identify each user based on the collected data. All major browsers have the ability to gather your digital fingerprints during your browsing session, thus creating your personal tracking
profile – your digital fingerprint!
These unique profiles are then sold to advertising agencies,
resulting in so-called “personalized” popups, commercials and other forms of ads.

Without affecting your browsing experience, IDX Privacy will block all tracking attempts made by either cookies, fingerprinting algorithms or other tracking methods – thus allowing you to browse the internet without any personal information leaked.
Be it your browsing habits, shopping preferences, or social activity – that information is now all yours to keep for yourself.
