=Common questions=
==What's a tracker?==
Online trackers are small pieces of code inserted into the websites you visit, such as cookies or tracking pixels, which allow third parties to collect information about your online activities. When you visit a website that uses trackers, the third party that controls the tracker may be able to infer personal data like your interests, browsing habits and location.
==What's malware?==
Malware, which stands for malicious software, is a type of software that intentionally harms or disrupts devices and networks or steals or encrypts data. Some examples of malware are viruses, trojans, spyware, and ransomware. Malware can infiltrate your device via several means, such as downloading files from untrustworthy sources, opening email attachments, clicking on malicious links or pop-ups, or connecting to infected devices.
