Fingerprinting permission in Waterfox

Waterfox includes protections against browser fingerprinting to reduce cross‑site tracking. Sites do not receive a special permission to fingerprint you.

What this means

Section titled “What this means”
  • Waterfox limits high‑entropy APIs and standardizes certain values to make your browser look more like others.
  • You may see minor changes in site behavior (for example, reduced precision in timing APIs).

Control

Section titled “Control”
  • Fingerprinting protections are on by default in Waterfox. There is no setting to grant “fingerprinting permission” to a site.
  • For more privacy, use Strict privacy settings and Private Windows.
