Kamo

Whenever you access an Internet resource using a browser, numerous trackers start working and identify unique aspects about your browser and PC so as to generate a digital fingerprint that is later used to target you with ads.

If you want to make sure this does not happen, you can start manually clearing cookies and deleting other types of traces you leave behind every time you browse the web. Alternatively, you can try a specialized application, such as Kamo.

As soon as you run Kamo on your computer, it performs an in-depth analysis and generates a privacy score, while also displaying steps you can take to improve the score. You can activate anti-tracking and browser protection, along with scheduling frequent browser cleaning and improving the overall security of your OS.

Also, the app automatically randomizes your fingerprint to throw off trackers and to protect your identity without any action on your part.

No matter how many browsers you have installed on your PC, Kamo offers you the means to quickly get rid of a wide range of data you would otherwise need to erase manually.

More specifically, you can remove the address bar history, Adobe Flash or Silverlight cookies, browsing history, browser cache and temporary Internet files. Web cookies and auto-fill data can be deleted too, yet you need to keep in mind that this also wipes your saved passwords.

You can schedule Kamo to automatically clear selected data for each supported browser, namely Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Internet Explorer and Opera. A different configuration can be setup for each of these browsers.

Another way you can improve the privacy protection on your machine is by tampering with the default Windows settings. You can prevent your OS and installed software from collecting and sharing your activity, as well as make it hard for outsiders to search and access specific files.

You also get to secure your account with an additional layer of security when it comes to storing passwords on your device.

Although Kamo might seem targeted at experienced users who worry about their digital fingerprint, it can easily used by novices as well, since security is a topic that should concern all types of users.
