|
||
|
||
**ClearURLs** is an add-on based on the new WebExtensions technology and is optimized for *Firefox* and *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`,
|
||
to protects your privacy.
|
||
|
||
## 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.

### Translate ClearURLs
|
||
You want to help translating ClearURLs into many languages? – Nice
|
||
|
||
You can choose between two options to contribute. You can create a merge request, or you can use the POEditor to translate ClearURLs.
|
||
|
||
*Hint*: The description field in the translation files are only an information for what the translation is used. It is not necessary to translate the description field; in the most cases it is empty.
|
||
|
||
#### Merge request
|
||
If you want to create a merge request, you must open the path [`_locales/en/messages.json`](https://github.com/KevinRoebert/ClearUrls/blob/master/_locales/en/messages.json) in the ClearURLs repo
|
||
and translate the english terms into terms of your language. Once you have translated all the terms, you make a pull request of your translation.
|
||
Please push your translation into the folder `_locales/{country code}/messages.json`.
|
||
|
||
#### POEditor
