Advanced URL Cleaner Extension
Remove tracking parameters, sanitize shared links, and keep your URLs clean using a lightweight browser extension for Chrome and Firefox.
URLs were originally designed to be short, readable, and functional. Today, they are often overloaded with campaign identifiers, click tracking tokens, referral parameters, and analytics payloads that serve advertising platforms rather than users.
When you copy a link from social media, search engines, or marketing emails, you are usually sharing far more data than intended. These extra parameters persist across platforms, applications, documents, and chat tools.
Advanced URL Cleaner solves this problem at the browser level. It removes tracking parameters before a link is shared, stored, or published, while preserving the destination and functionality of the original page.
Why Cleaning URLs Matters
Persistent Tracking Without Visibility
Parameters such as utm_source, utm_campaign, fbclid,
gclid, and msclkid allow platforms to reconstruct user journeys
across websites. Once embedded in a shared link, these identifiers continue to transmit
metadata whenever the link is opened.
Reduced Trust in Shared Links
Long URLs filled with encoded strings and advertising markers often trigger suspicion. In professional environments, academic work, and technical documentation, cluttered links reduce credibility.
Permanent Data Pollution
Tracking parameters do not disappear after one click. They are saved in bookmarks, PDFs, spreadsheets, internal tools, and messaging histories. Advanced URL Cleaner prevents unnecessary data from becoming permanent.
How Advanced URL Cleaner Works
Advanced URL Cleaner operates entirely inside your browser. It does not modify website behavior, block scripts, or interfere with page rendering. Instead, it focuses on one task: removing non-essential query parameters from URLs.
- Parses the URL structure in real time
- Identifies known tracking and attribution parameters
- Preserves required query values and path segments
- Outputs a normalized, share-ready URL
Available for Chrome and Firefox
