Ghostery overview

What is Ghostery?

Each of the 1,900+ companies has a profile in the Ghostery Knowledge Library that will help you learn more about their technology, their business, and their privacy policies.

After you’ve seen what’s tracking you, you can decide whether or not you want to block any or all of the companies in Ghostery’s library. Are there some marketers you trust, but others you’d rather turn away? Do you want to allow tracking on some websites, but not on others? Do you find tracking slows page load times down?

On an average day, our dedicated panel members block over 100 million trackers – both visible, like ads and commenting systems, and invisible, like analytics scripts. Ghostery puts the power in your hands, giving you complete control over access to your information and a speedier browsing experience.

Key benefits of using Ghostery

We meticulously select, profile and cull over 1,900 trackers and 2,200 tracking patterns.

Block tracker by tracker, site-by-site, or a mixture of the two. Pause blocking for those moments when you’d like to disable it altogether.

Ghostery is available for nearly every device and browser: Firefox, Safari, Chrome, Opera, iOS and Android via the Firefox Browser.

See what you’re blocking and use Ghostery’s tracker profiles to educate yourself about the companies that are tracking you.

Click-to-Play functionality means that blocked trackers like Google, Facebook and Twitter buttons, as well as commenting systems, video players and sound widgets, will be readily available to use as you scroll through content normally.
