What is a Privacy Score?

The score ranges from 0 to 100:
0-40: Poor
Your data is likely being collected by multiple trackers
41-70: Fair
Some measures in place, but significant room for improvement
71-90: Good
Most tracking attempts are being blocked
91-100: Excellent
Your browsing is highly secure and private
