Bad Cookie
Your browser remembers a lot about you. You should get a say in what it keeps.
Most privacy tools either simplify everything into a meaningless "block trackers" button, or expose technical jargon without explaining what any of it actually means. Bad Cookie is different. We translate browser tracking into actual English, so you can see who is tracking you, understand why, and kick out what you don't want.
You wouldn't put a bad cookie in your mouth. Don't let one live in your browser.

Important behaviour notes
A few things to know before you purge
- Using "Wipe All Data" will sign you out of websites and clear local preferences (like shopping carts).
- Purging specific data may require you to log back into certain services.
- If you enable tracker blocking, you will need to reload your currently open tabs for the new rules to apply.
