This is the only params remover add-on I know of that allows entering custom param names. One thing I have noticed that none of them handle is when you're subscribed to an email list and the link is processed by a click tracker before redirecting to the page. In that case the params are not stripped. Here is an example that redirects to a link with four utm params: http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001mkagUU5Zezno4nuOhM-WtO4wj-D-bRd3ZPyIXebOp9BOE-OROHy_fpTtyqRNSE4V81dPWVnGJuEN3h1PKcpLjuhiJPNd3yS_cnmuSKVLOMxzRfbbREjE9QG8ZiCaq2x2uh4I722A7CrT4dwCPJfYcax-IctoTOr_p3TCU08F5jDoAsAHoh2_azYeIVwoION56N3rrj8tGrPuef1ram2j30o_tuGAVt8sTS3cISV_HYSGeAqtz3uDEnWytMZKV23_edePwjFSQZb43QS4vsLFZshp7fN-nPUYQbBAdSTbwicxaGMeZrtNhv-QpalRSC-S0ysKOH5k1iZpiw4tqU5aUSjjhzbYX6orIZF7skK-sfeHiZlrhlKzh7evWvaEeVeDEIDm4Ax50FanG-rXmSDIP83T-nN1rdHSffz3ldytaGlAgzt2_V5fbhZ4VaLext5D&c=JwLOObRlM9JTqFOJk7bHq3hrC0-PuI0AKQ0yr9Wm8OSBwD4DBQ8w2g==&ch=8gewyUEHYT6AQQoAlMrZ52_s7nlF0WRzNN6NELXrQGjvNOKvNSzIJA==

Is Search Params Remover 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.

Search Params Remover requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
