What it does

Epic Privacy Browser combines Chromium with ad and tracker blocking, fingerprinting mitigations and third-party-cookie restrictions.

Epic's current product page describes third-party-cookie blocking as a default and offers more granular fingerprinting protections. It also says the browser supports most Chrome Web Store extensions, so moving to Epic need not mean abandoning every existing browser tool.

Use those capabilities deliberately: an extension changes the browser's behavior and may introduce its own data access. Enable Epic's blocker or encrypted-proxy extension through the Extensions page when following its feature guide. The umbrella control can adjust settings for a page that fails to load; the proxy route described here is scoped to the browser.

Epic's policy gives its search partnership a concrete effect on blocking: Yahoo search and related sites are whitelisted, and clicking a Yahoo search ad disables AdBlock for several seconds. It also describes website/download counts and Widevine update calls on desktop. Those exceptions matter alongside the core browser's stated exclusion of personal and browsing data. The browser's extension permissions and the search provider's own terms remain separate choices.
