How to Use BP Tracker Blocker 6.11 in Chrome

BP Tracker Blocker combines tracker, ad, tracking cookie, popup, autoplay video, blocked element, and optional fingerprinting controls in one Chrome extension.

Quick answer: Keep the addon on, use Home to review the current page, Allow for precise exceptions, Settings for the six protection categories and privacy preferences, and Help for guidance and support.

Before you start

Install BP Tracker Blocker from the Chrome Web Store, pin it to the toolbar, then open a normal website and select the extension icon. The top switch controls the entire addon; the site switch controls only the current website.

Blocking may change website behavior. When a trusted site needs a service, create the narrowest exception instead of disabling protection everywhere.

1. Read the Home dashboard

Home shows whether protection is on for the active website and reports what happened on its last load. Select a category counter to inspect current-page activity for Trackers, Ads, Tracking cookies, Popups, Autoplay videos, or Elements.

  1. Keep Addon is ON for normal browsing.
  2. Use the site protection switch when one trusted website needs all protection paused.
  3. Open a non-zero counter to inspect recent activity before making an exception.
  4. Use Block element to hide a page element and manage it later under Blocked elements.
  5. Read the daily and total blocked counts and bandwidth saved as local activity summaries.

2. Configure popups and autoplay videos

Open Settings, then choose Pop-ups or Videos. Popup controls are separated into consent popups, notification prompts, and other promotional or sign-in overlays.

  1. Enable only the popup categories you want Chrome to hide.
  2. Turn on Stop autoplaying videos to pause unwanted autoplay on protected pages.
  3. Add a website exception when videos should autoplay there while the other protections remain active.
  4. Review the Home counters after reloading the page.

Popup categories and autoplay exceptions are independent, so a video exception does not disable tracker or ad blocking.
BP Tracker Blocker 6.11 tracking cookie patterns, subscriptions, and editable blocking rules
Tracking cookies, built-in rules, generic ad patterns, custom wildcard rules, and subscription sources are managed from their Settings panels.

3. Control tracking cookies and blocking rules

Open Settings and select Cookies, Trackers, or Ads. Tracking cookies use named provider patterns; network rules combine built-in catalogs, custom patterns, and auto-updated EasyPrivacy or compatible subscription sources.

  1. Grant optional Chrome cookie access only if you want matching tracking cookies removed.
  2. Search provider patterns before adding a custom cookie pattern.
  3. Add a domain, URL, or wildcard rule when a missing tracker or ad pattern needs local coverage.
  4. Use subscription update controls to refresh text lists; the extension converts compatible entries into declarative browser rules and does not execute remote code.
  5. Restore reviewed defaults when a local edit causes unexpected behavior.

4. Allow only what a trusted site needs

The Allow tab contains Paused websites and Allowed items. A paused website has tracker and fingerprinting protection disabled. An allowed item is a narrower domain, URL, or wildcard exception.

  1. Add a site only when you trust it and the page genuinely needs protection paused.
  2. Prefer a custom allow rule when one required service is enough.
  3. Remove temporary exceptions after finishing the affected workflow.
  4. Use Restore defaults to recover the reviewed CAPTCHA allow items without preserving unrelated custom exceptions.

Protection preferences cover page alerts, Do Not Track, fingerprinting signals, unknown-ad detection, and how blocked ad spaces appear.

5. Configure privacy preferences

Settings groups the six protection categories above the browser-wide privacy preferences. These switches are independent of the current-site controls on Home.

  1. Enable page alerts only if you want an in-page blocked count.
  2. Keep Send Do Not Track on when Chrome allows the extension to manage that request.
  3. Use Extra fingerprinting protection to reduce canvas, audio, font, and WebGL signals.
  4. Choose how unknown ads are detected and whether blocked ad spaces are hidden or retained.

6. Use Help and Report a problem

Open Help for short explanations of Home, Allow, site protection, rules, subscriptions, and compatibility recovery. If the extension behaves incorrectly, use Report a problem next to Block element.

Report a problem is user initiated. It prepares a bounded sanitized diagnostic and opens the BuyProxies.org form. The report is stored only after you explicitly choose Send report with a required problem description; optional email and screenshot fields remain under your control.

The diagnostic excludes full page URLs, page text, HTML, cookies, credentials, custom rules, allowlists, and the general recent-activity log.
