What is TikTok Container?
"TikTok Container" is a Firefox add-on designed to enhance user privacy. It works by confining all TikTok activities within a separate container, preventing ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, from tracking the user outside the TikTok ecosystem. This add-on deletes TikTok's tracking cookies upon installation and ensures subsequent TikTok activity occurs within its dedicated container.

What is TikTok Container?

TikTok Container is an add-on you can install on Firefox to prevent TikTok from tracking your activity on other websites, so you can continue to use TikTok while protecting your privacy.

How does TikTok Container work?

The Add-on keeps TikTok in a separate Container to prevent it from following your activity on other websites. When you first install the add-on, it deletes the cookies that TikTok uses to track you on other websites.

Every time you visit TikTok, it will open in its own container, separate from other websites you visit. You can login to TikTok within its container. When browsing outside the container, TikTok won’t be able to easily collect your browsing data and connect it to your TikTok identity.
