FixGuard - Ad Blocker & Privacy Protection

Browse with less noise, fewer interruptions, and more privacy.

FixGuard is a lightweight blocker for Chrome and Edge, built for Chrome’s modern Manifest V3 platform. It blocks ads and trackers with the browser’s native blocking engine, hides intrusive page elements, and gives you clear per-site control without profiling you.

Instead of trying to do everything, FixGuard focuses on what matters most: fast blocking, simple controls, automatic rule updates, and privacy-first design.

Why people install FixGuard
• Block ads and trackers using Chrome’s built-in Declarative Net Request engine
• Hide leftover ad containers, sponsored blocks, and intrusive page elements so pages look clean, not broken
• Hide cookie banners and consent overlays automatically
• Block notification permission prompts before sites interrupt you
• Use separate toggles for tracking protection, cookie banners, notification blocking, and video ads
• Pause blocking on the current site with one click
• Use the built-in element picker to hide stubborn elements and save site-specific rules
• Add your own custom selectors, blocked domains, and video ad domains when you want more control
• See what was blocked from the popup and keep rules updated automatically in the background

Privacy-first by design
• No account required
• No sale or sharing of your browsing data
• No page-level browsing analytics
• No page content, form data, or saved custom rules sent to FixGuard servers
• Settings and custom rules stay in browser storage on your device or browser profile
• Limited technical service logs are used only to deliver rule updates and troubleshoot failures

FixGuard processes blocking locally in your browser. The extension regularly contacts fixguard.org to download updated blocking rules and, in limited cases, may make short-lived diagnostic or playback-recovery requests on supported pages. Those requests are used to deliver updates, diagnose compatibility issues, or keep supported playback working, not for advertising or page-level browsing analytics.
