When you're building or testing your site, your own visits can inflate your analytics. There are two ways to exclude yourself from tracking.

## Method 1: IP Exclusion (Recommended)

The easiest way to block your traffic is by excluding your IP address in the dashboard settings.

1. Go to your website's **Settings** page
2. Click **Add my IP** to automatically detect and exclude your current IP
3. Done — all visits from this IP are now ignored

You can also manually enter an IP address if needed.

### Apply to All Websites

If you manage multiple websites, click **Apply to all** next to any excluded IP to sync it across all your projects.

## Method 2: Browser Console

Alternatively, you can block tracking for a specific browser using a console command.

Open your browser's developer console on your website and run:

```js
supalytics.blockTrackingForMe()
```

From now on, your visits from that browser won't be recorded.

### Check Status

To see if tracking is currently blocked:

```js
supalytics.isTrackingBlocked()
```

Returns `true` if blocked, `false` otherwise.

### Resume Tracking

To start tracking yourself again:

```js
supalytics.unblockTracking()
```

### Opening the Browser Console

| Browser | Mac                | Windows/Linux      |
| ------- | ------------------ | ------------------ |
| Chrome  | `Cmd + Option + J` | `Ctrl + Shift + J` |
| Firefox | `Cmd + Option + K` | `Ctrl + Shift + K` |
| Safari  | `Cmd + Option + C` | —                  |
| Edge    | `Cmd + Option + I` | `F12`              |

For Safari, enable the Developer menu first in Settings → Advanced.

Once DevTools opens, click the **Console** tab.

## Which Method Should I Use?

|                               | IP Exclusion | Browser Console |
| ----------------------------- | ------------ | --------------- |
| Blocks all devices on network | Yes          | No              |
| Persists across browsers      | Yes          | No              |
| Works on mobile               | Yes          | No              |
| Per-browser control           | No           | Yes             |

**Use IP exclusion** if you want to block all your devices at once (home/office network).

**Use browser console** if you need per-browser control or share a network with others you want to track.
