# ClearURLs
|
|
|
|
**ClearURLs** is an add-on based on the new WebExtensions technology and is optimized for *Firefox* and now also available for *Chrome* based browsers.
|
|
|
|
This add-on will remove the tracking fields from all URLs which are visited by the browser and use a rule file, namely `data.min.json`.
|
|
|
|
This add-on protects your privacy and block the request from advertising services like *doubleclick.net*.
|
|
|
|
## Application
|
|
Large (and small) webpages use elements in the URL, e.g.: https://example.com?source=thisIstheSiteIvisitedBefore to track your online activities. In this example, the source field tells the provider which page you visited before. The add-on will remove these tracking fields from the URL.
