Email Privacy Protector: Is My Email Tracked? Extension

This extension is an email tracking blocker for Gmail - it blocks all email tracking pixels so preventing marketers and spammers from monitoring when you open emails and click on links, thereby protecting your email privacy and security.

Stop spammers & marketers dead! Anyone who's tracking your emails, will be sorely disappointed.

Do you know that almost all the emails you receive are tracked to see when you open them and when you click on the links in them?

With this email privacy protector, no one will ever be able to know when you opened your email, or have any information about any links that you clicked.

This extension will block email tracking attempts used to detect when you open and read emails. Email Privacy Protector displays an 'shields' when it finds and blocks a tracking attempt inside of an email.

How it works:
1. Install the extension.
2. Open an email in your Gmail.
3. You will see a small shield icon in the left corner and the text \"This email is being tracked\".
4. If you want to notify the sender that you have opened and read the email, hover over the \"Tracking is blocked\" text and click \"Unblock\".

Your email privacy and security is our goal.

Vedic Store (ID: 0000009ce5dd2a0b) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 05/02/2023 Does not work on more than one email. If you have more than one Gmail account open in the same browser (different tab) it works only in one email and keeps you going in a loop to login - re-login into account to upgrade to buy. I have only one app from CloudHQ - Free Email Tracking Blocker installed - but the dashboard says, I have two apps, the other: Sync and Backup - this is not true. Uninstalling. Disappointed.

Jeannine Earp (ID: 000000f1af99c0ff) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/01/2023 This is a reliable extension that helps you to know if your emails are being tracked and offers privacy protection features. 5 stars.

Peter Greer (ID: 000000f7bd91b680) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/28/2023 Good extension that provides real-time alerts and insights into email tracking attempts, helping me to protect my privacy and stay informed about how my emails are being tracked. 5/5 for me

Christopher Barlow (ID: 000000b7cf4dff2c) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/24/2023 Constantly nags you. This is adware garbage that reeks of trojan malware.

icon

Virgil Patterson (ID: 000000a92d25187d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/21/2023 Quite a insightful extension that allows users to see if their emails are being tracked by third-party applications, with the only suggestion being the ability to block tracking attempts for enhanced privacy. Overall I recommend this extension.
