FAQ
Is canvas fingerprinting legal?
It depends on jurisdiction. Canvas fingerprinting is generally considered legal, but its use is tightly regulated by privacy laws like the GDPR in Europe and CCPA in California. While not explicitly banned, tracking users without their consent or knowledge violates data protection regulations, making it illegal to use for advertising without explicit user consent.
Can I block canvas fingerprinting?
Yes, you can block or mitigate canvas fingerprinting, although completely eliminating it is difficult as blocking it entirely may make your browser appear more unique. You can use anti-detect browsers or privacy extensions.
Does incognito mode prevent it?
No, incognito mode does not prevent canvas fingerprinting. Incognito mode only prevents local browsing history and cookies from being saved. Because canvas fingerprinting relies on unique hardware and software configurations, it remains consistent and identifiable even when browsing in private mode.
