Availability depends on ChromeWhat to know about these controls
Enabling requires permission to manage Chrome privacy settings. These settings do not read your cookies, passwords, or page contents. The separate cookie pop-up feature asks for website access when enabled.
These settings apply across this Chrome profile, independently of network blocking or website exceptions. “Use Chrome setting” releases SafeBlock’s override of one setting. “Release all controls” releases all six overrides and removes the added permission.
Existing cookies are not deleted. Site exceptions, storage-access grants, and partitioned storage can still operate. Sites can still collect information you enter, your IP address, and some device characteristics. These controls do not prevent every privacy risk.
Cookie blocks are not added to the counters: Chrome does not provide a cookie-block total through these controls.
