GA4 Blocker Privacy Policy
Last updated: 30 July 2026
Who We Are
GA4 Blocker is a free, open source browser extension published by Social Impact Ltd (Company No. 08995296), a company registered in England and Wales, trading as Dave Ships. In this policy, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Social Impact Ltd.
Questions about this policy can be sent to [email protected].
What the Extension Does
GA4 Blocker lets you list websites you own or work on, and blocks Google Analytics requests on just those sites. The purpose is to stop your own visits from being counted in those sites’ analytics reports.
Information We Collect
We do not collect any information. The extension has no backend, no accounts and no network requests of its own.
The extension stores the following on your device only, using the browser’s local extension storage:
- The list of domains you choose to add.
- Whether blocking is currently switched on or off.
This information never leaves your browser. We cannot see it, and it is not transmitted to us or to anyone else.
What We Do Not Do
- We do not collect, store or transmit personal data.
- We do not track your browsing history or the pages you visit.
- We do not include analytics or advertising in the extension.
- We do not load or execute any remote code.
- We do not sell or share data, because we do not have any.
Permissions
The extension requests the minimum permissions it needs to work:
| Permission | Why it is needed |
|---|---|
declarativeNetRequest | To block Google Analytics requests on the sites you have listed. Blocking rules are applied by the browser itself, so the extension never reads the content of the requests. |
storage | To remember your domain list and on/off setting between sessions, on your device. |
activeTab | To read the address of the tab you are currently on, only when you open the extension, so it can tell you whether that site is protected and offer to add it. |
Data Retention and Deletion
Because everything is stored locally, you are in full control. Removing a domain in the extension deletes it immediately. Uninstalling the extension removes all of its stored data from your browser.
Children’s Privacy
The extension is a developer tool and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone, including children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy if the extension changes. Any update will be posted on this page and the date above will be revised.
Not Affiliated With Google
GA4 Blocker is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Google LLC. Google, Google Analytics and GA4 are trademarks of Google LLC, used here only to describe what the extension does.
