What is a referrer?
The referrer tells a destination which website or source the visitor came from. Hiding it means the destination doesn't see that information, protecting your traffic source.

Link Shortener with Referrer Hiding
Hide the referring source when you redirect. The destination won't see where your traffic came from, keeping partnerships, campaigns, and referral sources confidential.
Every click carries metadata about where it came from — the referrer. To the destination site, that reveals exactly which partner, campaign, or channel sent the visitor. That's useful data for them, but it may be information you'd rather keep private. If you've agreed to protect a partner, want to hide a competitive campaign, or simply prefer not to hand the source of your traffic to the destination, referrer hiding matters. RELURL's link shortener with referrer hiding strips that source information during the redirect. The visitor still arrives at the destination, but the destination can no longer see which source drove them there. It's a clean, privacy-focused layer for every link you care about guarding.

Pourquoi utiliser notre Link Shortener with Referrer Hiding
Traffic source stays private
The destination doesn't see the referrer, so your campaign and partnership sources are not exposed in their analytics.
Protect partner relationships
Honor confidentiality by keeping partner and affiliate sources away from the destination's view.
No breakage for visitors
Referrer hiding changes only the metadata. The visitor still reaches the destination instantly and normally.
Applies where you choose
Use it selectively on the links that matter, keeping standard links for ordinary sharing.
Ce qui rend RELURL différent
RELURL treats referrer privacy as a controllable feature rather than an accident. On any link where you enable it, the redirect strips the source before the visitor reaches the destination — with no change in user experience. This sits naturally alongside our other privacy controls, so the same platform that hides destination URLs, encrypts mappings, and protects analytics also lets you hide the referrer. For affiliate marketers, agencies, and anyone with confidentiality concerns, it's a straightforward way to keep your sources to yourself in a single, reliable short link.
Comment nous comparons aux alternatives
A direct link passes the referrer to the destination. RELURL's referrer-hiding link strips that source metadata on redirect.
Some tools can't control referrer behavior at all. RELURL gives you explicit control, applied per link as you choose.
Sending traffic through noisy redirects to hide the source is clumsy. RELURL removes the referrer cleanly without extra hops or big latency.

Conseils et bonnes pratiques
Apply it to sensitive partnerships
Enable referrer hiding on links tied to confidential partners or campaigns so their origin is never revealed to the destination.
Keep tracking on your side
You still retain full analytics in your dashboard — referrer hiding only stops the destination from seeing the source, not your own measurement.
Combine with destination hiding
For maximum privacy, hide both the referrer and the destination URL so neither the source nor the target is surfaced.
Questions fréquentes
Will referrer hiding break the link?
No. The visitor still reaches the destination normally. Only the source metadata is removed, so the redirect works exactly the same from the user's perspective.
Why would I want to hide a referrer?
To keep partnerships, campaigns, or competitive channels confidential. If you don't want the destination tracking exactly where your traffic originates, referrer hiding prevents that.
