Take Back Your Privacy with the Optery Global Privacy Control (GPC) Extension
In an era where your personal data is collected and shared by many of the websites you visit, taking control of your privacy has never been more critical. This video from Optery explains how to install the Optery Global Privacy Control (GPC) Extension, a free browser tool designed to significantly reduce unwanted tracking and personal data collection.

What it Does:
The Optery GPC browser extension sends a signal to websites you visit, informing them that you do not want your personal information sold or shared.

Designed for simplicity, our extension allows even those without technical expertise to easily navigate and utilize it.
By adopting the Global Privacy Control standard, Optery’s extension ensures that your privacy preferences are respected by participating websites.

Key Features:
Automatic Privacy Signal: Once installed, the extension automatically sends the GPC signal to websites you visit, indicating your preference to not have your personal information sold or shared.
Easy Control: Toggle the signal on or off with a simple click on the extension’s icon in your browser toolbar.
Privacy by Default: Ensures your preferences are communicated without needing manual settings on each site.

The Optery GPC Extension works only on websites that respect the GPC standard, and some websites may still collect your personal information. You can always review a website’s privacy policy to learn more about how they collect and use your data.

Protect your personal information from being sold or shared with our new extension, available now from the Chrome Web Store: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/optery-global-privacy-con/nkiidnpgmddigajgebjhcdiklebfoomm
