The company hasn’t updated its apps since Apple required new privacy disclosures in the App Store, but the firm states the firewall collects no information. Lockdown Privacy offers software for both iOS/iPadOS and macOS, and has a free firewall that blocks trackers of all sorts, including those used in email messages. It’s $0.99 a day, $9.99 a month, or $99.99 per year for up to five devices using the same iCloud account, and acts as well as a VPN for local network protection, too. Guardian Firewall and VPN for iOS/iPadOS collects no data from its customers per the App Store disclosure, and blocks trackers used in email, within apps, and on websites. There’s a more comprehensive option, too, which is to subscribe to a firewall VPN service that’s designed to block tracking and protect privacy. (I use an ancient mail app that is text-only-it can’t load images at all-but it requires Mojave and earlier.) For instance, if you use Postbox in macOS, you can disable the loading of all remote images and then use controls in a message to allow images to load from specific domains and sub-domains. You could also opt for third-party email software that has different image-loading options. Postbox offers granular selection of which domains you allow images to load from.
