Block Websites from Tracking your Browsing Activities

To configure tracking protection:

• Click the hamburger icon

• Click 'Options' > 'Privacy and Security'

• Scroll down to the 'Content Blocking' section

Some websites record the browsing activities of visitors. For example, a web site may track your activity to find your interests and display relevant content and advertisements. While this can make for a more personalized online experience, it can also allow websites to build a potentially invasive profile of your online activity.

• Content blocking prevents known trackers from recording your online behavior. You will see a shield icon in the address bar when IceDragon blocks content on a website.

• Click the small 'i' or the shield icon to view what IceDragon detects and blocks on sites that you visit.

• The 'Content Blocking' section lets you configure how you want to deploy this feature:

• Standard – Default mode. Ice Dragon allows trackers in normal sessions but blocks them in private sessions.

• Strict - Ice Dragon blocks trackers at all times in both normal and private browsing sessions. Note – Blocking cookies and trackers may cause some websites to break.

• Custom – Select what you want to block:

• Trackers - Blocks all cookies set by trackers. Choose the sessions in which you want to block trackers:

• In all windows - Ice Dragon will block trackers at all times in both normal and private browsing sessions.

• Only in Private Windows - Ice Dragon will allow trackers in normal sessions but block them in private sessions.

• Cookies – The options available to block cookies are:

• Third-party trackers

• Cookies from unvisited websites

• All third-party cookies (may cause websites to break)

• All cookies (will cause websites to break)

Note – Your preferred settings are kept for all sessions until you change them.

• 'Do Not Track' - A setting that tells websites you visit that you do not want them to monitor or record your behavior.

• 'Always' - Will send the 'Do not track' command to every site you visit during both regular and private browsing sessions.

• 'Only when IceDragon is set to block known trackers' - Will send the 'Do not track' command if tracker protection is active for the session.

• Exceptions - A shield icon in the address bar indicates IceDragon is blocking a tracker on the site. All sites for which tracking is allowed are listed in 'Exceptions - Content Blocking'.

To remove a site from exceptions

• Click the information or shield icon again and click 'Turn on Blocking for This Site'

OR

• In the content blocking section, click 'Manage Exceptions'

• Select the website and click 'Remote Website'. Click 'Remove All Websites' to delete all exceptions.

• Click 'Save Changes'
