## Description

Most users unknowingly agree to consent managers, allowing their data to be shared with countless third-party companies. Many of these companies sell the data in marketplaces, enabling data brokers to gather it for user-profiling and resale. In this scenario, individuals lose the ability to track their personal information. <strong>NetSamurai safeguards your privacy by intercepting and analyzing website connections, using state-of-the-art techniques to detect web infostealers and other code that threatens user privacy. It automatically removes only those harmful portions, ensuring that only clean traffic flows through your network</strong>.

From the ground up, <em>NetSamurai</em> has been built with a strict <strong>privacy-by-design</strong>  philosophy, meaning <strong>we do not collect, store, or share any user data at any point</strong>. We exclusively cut only the tracking elements, preserving full website functionality while cleaning the code. To this end, <em>NetSamurai</em> employs cutting-edge, scientifically validated techniques to precisely identify and avoid most tracking and user fingerprinting systems, which are the most commonly used methods for gathering personal data.
