2024-07-06 | Firefox user 17288647 | This product is great. PRIVACY resolved a merchant charge I disputed. The PRIVACY team got my money back (I am using a free account). PRIVACY has also blocked and saved me from sneaky free trials that tried to bill me. What PRIVACY is doing for me in the background is, they are protecting my real account info from hackers and online data breaches. PRIVACY isn't perfect, but in my opinion, it's as close to perfection you are going to get when shopping online. All of sudden, shopping online is safer with PRIVACY. | |

2024-05-17 | Firefox user 18419459 | I love the extra privacy of not needing to use my name or address when purchasing items. I would like to see the ability to add a 2fa hardware key authorization when adding new cards though. | |
2024-05-02 | Firefox user 13088706 | My debit card was hacked four times in three months - two months using privacy and so far no more worries! | |
2024-02-28 | Kaner | Does what it says it does. Nice extension of a product I've been utilizing for a while now. | |
2024-02-27 | Patrick | Seems to work but requires access to your data for all websites even if you choose to op-out of the features it's used for.. WHY? Bit conflicting for a privacy app. | |
2024-02-08 | Alex A | Love Privacy! Have used it for so many online subscriptions. Feel much safer shopping online and also more aware of what I'm paying for. The auto-generated card numbers make it so easy. Highly recommend | |
