How to block trackers on chrome using Veltar

Tracking pixels, analytics tags, and behavioral profiling scripts run silently in the background of most websites. On corporate devices these trackers collect browsing patterns, capture session data, and share insights with multiple third party networks. This leads to privacy exposure, regulatory risks, and unnecessary data sharing that companies cannot control.

Trackers also slow down browsers, inflate bandwidth usage, and open pathways for malicious redirects that disguise themselves as analytics calls. When employees rely on Chrome for most of their work, blocking trackers becomes essential for maintaining a secure, compliant, and performance focused environment.

Build a controlled browsing experience

Scalefusion Veltar strengthens browsing controls by inspecting outbound requests directly on the device rather than depending on browser extensions or add ons. The secure web gateway solution identifies and filters tracking domains, pixels, analytics endpoints, and profiling scripts in real time. This enforcement works across all networks and browsing modes, including incognito, which means users cannot bypass the protection by switching configurations.

Since Veltar applies policies through Scalefusion UEM, IT teams maintain uniform control across their Chrome devices without managing separate tools or lists. The result is a stable and consistent shield against both visible and invisible trackers.

This quick interactive demo walks you through the exact steps to block online trackers using secure web gateway policies in Veltar.
