Protect your email address with Firefox Relay

Giving your email address in exchange for discounts may seem like a small price to pay.

Now, available as an extension on Firefox Android, Firefox Relay hides your real email address to help protect your identity. Learn more about Firefox Relay here.

Do you ever come across a newsletter or a product online and want to share it with a friend? Then, when you go and copy the URL, you notice it's embarrassingly too long to send and has all these random letters and symbols. What's up with that? Sites include tracking elements in the URLs for a number of reasons, but the bottom line is that it's used to track you. ClearURLs simply removes the tracking elements from the links, so you have a simple and clean URL. Download the extension and share away!
