About HistoryGuard

Take full control of your browsing privacy. HistoryGuard lets you block specific URLs from being saved in Chrome’s history, so sensitive sites stay off the record — all while keeping your data private on your device. 🔒 Key Features - Private URL List – Add sites you don’t want recorded in your history. - RegExp Support – Create flexible exclusion rules with regular expressions. - Import & Export – Back up your list or load rules from a file. - Simple Interface – Manage everything in just a few clicks. - Local Storage Only – Rules are stored on your device. No data is collected, transmitted, or shared. 🚀 How It Works 1. Install HistoryGuard from the Chrome Web Store. 2. Add URLs or patterns to your exclusion list. 3. Browse normally — visits to excluded sites will not appear in your history. ✅ Privacy & Permissions - History permission → required only to prevent excluded sites from being logged in history. - Storage permission → used only to save your custom exclusion rules locally. HistoryGuard never collects or shares your browsing data. All processing happens entirely within your browser.
