What is Your Browser Leaking?

When you visit a website, you might think you are browsing anonymously. But in reality, your browser is loudly announcing dozens of highly specific details about your computer to every server you connect to.

Browser Fingerprinting

Even if you clear your cookies, advertising networks can track you using a technique called Browser Fingerprinting. They combine all the exposed data points to create a unique identifier for your device.

These data points include:

• Your exact operating system and version.
• Your screen resolution and color depth.
• Whether you have ad-blockers installed.
• Your battery level and charging status.
• The exact language and timezone of your system.

Use a Browser Information Viewer to see your digital footprint in real-time. It's a fascinating (and slightly terrifying) look at exactly what data you are giving away for free!
