Ghostery does not sell user data. The Human Web, which you can choose to opt in or out of, is an open source technology built by our parent company Cliqz, that provides anonymous group data to help create and improve the browser security features we provide. If you would like to read more about the Human Web, here is a link to our FAQ page where this is covered in detail:

And here is a direct link to our open source code on GitHub for your review:
