Motivated by the desire to keep everyone safe from a false use of cookies ShieldApps has developed the app which deletes cookies for good. Browsers also have this option, but its temporary and some part of digital residue always stay in the cloud. With PC Privacy Shield every bit of personal information can be dissolved. In the same time, if you are not a fan of ads the number of those you’ll see will dramatically reduce. The program scans through your entire browsing history while creating a detailed report. Inside of it are all your credentials, profiles, browsing history and of course cookies. You can choose which one you will destroy or simply remove all of them. The interface of the app is simple. Few clicks are enough to get it going, so even average PC users can grasp its full potential.
