Protecting privacy means knowing which information is hidden in a file or link, and confirming that the cleaned copy still works. Use this checklist as a starting point, not as a guarantee of anonymity.
Step-by-step instructions
- 01
Paste a list of complete http/https URLs, one per line.
- 02
Run the cleaner to remove the recognized tracking query keys.
- 03
Download or copy the cleaned URL list; review the counts and any invalid lines.
- 04
Open one or two resulting URLs manually to confirm the destinations still work.
- 05
Do not assume parameter removal makes your browsing anonymous to the destination.
Before you share the result
Always inspect the output visually and verify it using a separate checker where possible. Metadata removal cannot remove identifiable objects, names, addresses, faces or text visible in pixels. Automated text redaction can miss irregular private values.
What this guide does not promise
There is no universal one-click guarantee that a file or link is anonymous. Different apps may add metadata when exporting, and some formats contain unsupported private fields. Use a specialized full-format tool if you need high-assurance removal.
