HOW TO TURN ON OR OFF TRACKING PREVENTION IN MICROSOFT EDGE CHROMIUM
HOW TO TURN ON OR OFF TRACKING PREVENTION IN MICROSOFT EDGE CHROMIUM
Published by Shawn BrinkCategory: Browsers & Email

> How to Turn On or Off Tracking Prevention in Microsoft Edge Chromium
>
>
> Microsoft has adopted the Chromium open source project in the development
> of Microsoft Edge on the desktop to create better web compatibility. This
> new Microsoft Edge runs on the same Chromium web engine as the Google
> Chrome browser, offering you best in class web compatibility and
> performance.
>
> The new Chromium based Microsoft Edge is supported on all versions of
> Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Windows Server (2016 and above),
> Windows Server (2008 R2 to 2012 R2), and macOS.
>
> Websites use trackers to collect data about your browsing behavior.
> Trackers collect data about how you interact with a site, such as the
> content you click on. They also enable functionality on some websites,
> such as comments sections, buttons to share articles to social media, and
> personalized ads.
>
> Some trackers collect data about you across multiple sites. For example, a
> tracker could track when you go to your favorite shopping site and news
> site. This is why it can sometimes feel like an ad is following you around
> the web.
>
> The tracking prevention feature in Microsoft Edge protects users from
> online tracking by restricting the ability of trackers to access
> browser-based storage as well as the network. It is built to uphold the
> Microsoft Edge browser privacy promise while also ensuring that there is
> no impact by default to website compatibility or the economic viability of
> the web.
>
> Microsoft Edge is designed to detect and block trackers. Microsoft puts
> you in control to decide what trackers to block. You can choose from three
> levels of tracking prevention – Basic, Balanced, and Strict. Balanced is
> selected as the default. Each option blocks potentially harmful trackers –
> trackers detected as cryptomining or fingerprinting.
>
> Basic: The least restrictive level of tracking prevention that is designed
> for users who enjoy personalized advertisements and who do not mind being
> tracked on the web. Basic only protects users against malicious trackers
> such as fingerprinters and cryptominers. Blocks potentially harmful
> trackers but allows most other trackers and those that personalize content
> and ads.
>
> Balanced (Recommended): The default level of tracking prevention that is
> designed for users who want to see less creepy advertisements that follow
> them around the web while they browse. Balanced aims to block trackers
> from sites that users never engage with while minimizing the risk of
> compatibility issues on the web. Blocks potentially harmful trackers and
> trackers from sites you haven’t visited. Content and ads will likely be
> less personalized.
>
> Strict: The most restrictive level of tracking prevention that is designed
> for users who are okay trading website compatibility for maximum privacy.
> Blocks potentially harmful trackers and most trackers across sites.
> Content and ads will likely have minimal personalization. This option
> blocks the most trackers but could cause some websites to not behave as
> expected. For example, a video might not play, or you might not be able to
> sign in.
