Tracker Blocking

Stop advertisers and trackers from following your browsing.

macOSWindows

Tracker blocking prevents third-party trackers from collecting data about your browsing activity.

How It Works

Tracker blocking is enabled by default in SiteQuest. When you visit a site, any known trackers are blocked before they can load. This means:

  • Fewer targeted ads
  • Less data collected about you
  • Faster page loads (fewer scripts to download)

View Blocked Trackers

SiteQuest can show you when it blocks a tracker. Look for the shield icon in the toolbar — it displays the number of trackers blocked on the current page.

You can disable tracker blocking for specific sites if they don't work correctly with it on. Open Settings > Privacy to manage exceptions.

Notifications

If you want to see when trackers are blocked, enable notifications in Settings > Privacy > Tracker Notifications. A toast message will appear each time a tracker is blocked.
