Features & Capabilities

Clean Links is a Firefox extension that protects your privacy and online autonomy by:

Intercepting affiliate redirect links (such as those from Mavely, Commission Junction, Impact Radius, Skimlinks, Rakuten, Awin, ShareASale, and dozens of other affiliate networks) and sending you directly to the real destination URL.

Stripping tracking parameters (such as UTM tags, click IDs, and affiliate identifiers) from URLs before your browser visits them

Blocking and removing cookies set by known affiliate tracking domains

Normalizing merchant URLs (Target, Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy) to remove affiliate-stuffed slugs and reference codes from URL paths

The result is that you reach the same destination you intended, without affiliate networks earning commissions from your purchases or building tracking profiles based on your activity.

What data does Clean Links keep? The extension keeps a local counter of how many links it has cleaned, redirects it has bypassed, and cookies it has nuked. These numbers are displayed in the extension's popup as a fun stat for you to look at. They are stored in memory inside your browser, are reset whenever you click "Reset counts" or restart your browser, and are never transmitted anywhere.

Does Clean Links share this data? No.

Third-Party Services Clean Links does not use, integrate with, or contact any third-party services, analytics platforms, advertising networks, or remote APIs. There are no third parties involved. The extension does not communicate with any external servers, including any servers operated by the developer.

Is Clean Links Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Clean Links requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Clean Links is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
