Is ClearURLs safe?

Clean risk

Automatically removes tracking elements from URLs as you browse.

This extension cleans URLs in the background by removing unnecessary tracking parameters, such as campaign tags and long marketplace URL elements. It also includes tools to clean multiple URLs, copy cleaned links from the context menu, block hyperlink auditing, prevent some search-result URL rewrites, and optionally block some common ad domains or keep logs.
