Steps to verify

  • Check the original product.
  • Choose tracking-only mode.
  • Compare the resulting product.

How to interpret the result

Default mode removes UTM and known tracking names. An unlisted value such as id remains; retention alone does not classify it as safe or unnecessary.

Deciding what to do next

Check unfamiliar parameters with the original service. The cleaner does not visit pages, so verify the resulting behavior separately.

Feature scope

Cleanup runs in the browser without visiting the target. Tracking-only and all-query modes differ; removing functional values can change behavior.

Frequently asked questions

Does it identify every advertising parameter?

It applies known-name and UTM rules; do not assume it classifies every service-specific value.
