IronVest costs $39 per year, but in addition to masking your email address, it lets you shop without revealing your actual credit card or phone number.Īvast AntiTrack and Norton AntiTrack both cost just short of $50 per year. ManyMe and Bulc Club are free options in this arena. The merchant only sees the DEA, and if you start to get spam on one of your DEAs, you can just cut it off. You can’t shop online without revealing your email address.or can you? In fact, quite a few tools are available that let you expose not your actual address but a disposable email address, or DEA. Note that you can use Optery and Privacy Bee for free if you’re willing to make all the opt-out requests yourself. The venerable DeleteMe runs $129 per year, Optery goes for $99.99, and Privacy Bee costs you $197 per year. One group aims to clear your private data from legitimate data-broker and people-search sites. What Do Competing Privacy Apps Cost?Ĭomparing Ghostery's price with other privacy-related apps' is tough because these apps offer so many different combinations of features for protecting privacy. And your searches won’t contain any private sponsored links (I’ll explain that last one below). You can sync settings across devices and switch between four user interface themes: light, dark, leaf, and palm. I asked my Ghostery contact, what if I want to contribute some other amount? She explained, “For now, contributors can only donate at those two fixed price points.”Īs a contributor, you receive some thank-you gifts, starting with priority tech support, historical stats on found trackers, and advanced tracker analysis. There’s also an option to contribute $107.88 per year. But if you want to support Ghostery and aren’t interested in the participatory options, you can sign up to be a contributor at that same $47.88 yearly rate that it used to cost. You can use all the important features without it. Once again, a contribution is not required. Touting Ghostery on Twitter or other social media also counts as a contribution. Reporting a new site to Ghostery’s WhoTracks.Me database of trackers gains you contributor status.
You could report a bug or add your coding expertise to Ghostery’s open-source code on GitHub. Contributors get access to a few features and enhancements, but there are many definitions of what makes a contributor. Ghostery is now entirely free, though you have the option to contribute to the project either in money or in kind.
