Incognito Browsing Mode
CtrlWeb's incognito mode allows you to browse without leaving traces. When you toggle on incognito mode, cookies are automatically managed - written in normal mode, deleted in incognito. This gives you complete control over your browsing history and cookie data.
Key features of incognito mode:
- No browsing history stored
- Automatic cookie deletion when switching to incognito
- Seamless toggle between normal and incognito modes
- Works seamlessly with all browser features
Learn more about incognito mode explained and how to use it effectively in our private browsing guide.
Local History Storage
Unlike many browsers that sync your history to the cloud, CtrlWeb stores your browsing history locally on your device. This means:
- Your history never leaves your device
- No cloud sync means complete privacy
- You have full control over your browsing data
- Faster access to your browsing history
Your data stays private and under your control. We don't have access to your browsing history, and it's never transmitted to our servers.
Ad Tracking Prevention
CtrlWeb prevents unnecessary tracking information from being shared with third-party websites. When you browse with CtrlWeb, you don't leave unnecessary information on third-party websites, giving you better control over your digital footprint.
With Premium, you can remove ads from your favorite websites entirely, further reducing tracking opportunities and improving your browsing experience.

Cookie Management
Cookies are automatically managed based on your browsing mode. In normal mode, cookies are written as usual. When you switch to incognito mode, cookies are automatically deleted, giving you a fresh start for each incognito session.
This automatic management means you don't need to manually clear cookies or worry about tracking cookies accumulating over time.
No Login Required
CtrlWeb doesn't require you to create an account or log in to use the browser. We don't request any personally identifiable information, such as your email address, except when you choose to contact our support team.
This means:
- No account creation required
- No email address needed
- No personal information collected
- Complete anonymity while browsing
Stay as private as you wish. We don't ask many questions.
IP Address Protection
When you use CtrlWeb's built-in VPN, your IP address is protected. We do not log or record your IP address, and our VPN servers do not store any access logs. Your IP address may be temporarily processed to establish a VPN connection, but this data is not logged, stored, or linked to any browsing activity.
