Detect and remove invasive tracking technology from your devices and browsers, scan for tracking cookies, behaviors, and resources to identify potential privacy risks
PrivacyAnt is a free and open source privacy protection tool for Windows, Mac, and Linux. It helps identify and remove invasive tracking technologies that may compromise your privacy when browsing the web or using apps.
When launched, PrivacyAnt scans your devices, browsers, apps, and system configurations to detect tracking cookies, behaviors, resources, and other traces that collect private information without consent. This may include web beacons, fingerprinting scripts, session replay tools, and more.
After scanning, PrivacyAnt generates an easy-to-understand report highlighting potential privacy risks discovered on your devices. It explains what each item is, why it poses a potential threat, and how to remove it. You can then use PrivacyAnt to clean up identified issues with one click.
In addition, PrivacyAnt offers recommendations for improving your privacy based on your scan. This may include enabling Do Not Track settings, using a private browser, installing additional privacy extensions, and other simple steps you can take to better protect personal data.
As an open source tool, PrivacyAnt is transparent about how it works and what it does behind the scenes. It is also free for personal use without advertisements or upsells.
