Features and Highlights

All files are scanned for viruses
Your downloaded files are automatically scanned for viruses and malware.

You're immediately alerted to suspicious sites
Websites suspected of phishing, malware, or fake news will automatically trigger a warning before you enter the site.

No alternative facts
News stories displayed on the Home screen undergo strict guidelines for content quality. The feed of news stories is strictly controlled, using only reputable news agencies (Reuters, BBC, Agence France Presse, and more) as sources.

"We've doubled the encryption"
The RSA key size has been doubled to 2048 bits. This is especially important for sites where you transfer secure information, as well as for when you use real-time discussions, like video chats.

Websites are forced to be secure
UR requires websites to use HTTPS where possible. This encrypts all communication between the browser and website, thus protecting your data at a superior level.

All third-party cookies are blocked
UR blocks those pesky little trackers that follow you around the web.

Built-in VPN helps you stay anonymous
Create an encrypted network between your computer and the websites you access to keep your tracks online completely anonymous.

Advanced Private Browsing
More than just your normal private mode: surf the web with normal tabs next to Private Browsing tabs, all in the same window. Websites that you visit often in Private Browsing can be added to a whitelist so that the next time you enter their address, your tab will automatically reload as a Private tab.

Nothing is reported back to Google
Google's open-source code, Chromium, has built-in monitoring for any internet browser that uses this code. Although UR is built with Chromium, any feature that reports back to Google has been disabled.

"We're Made in Europe"
UR is based in the European Union, where user privacy is highly protected in comparison to other countries, namely the United States. This raises major privacy concerns, as most large technology companies are American.

No one's looking at your searches
Qwant offers an alternative search engine that does not collect or share any of your personal information. UR sets Qwant as the default search engine, but you are free to customize your search engine in the settings.
