InPrivate Filtering Threshold

This policy setting allows you configure the threshold for InPrivate Filtering Automatic mode.

The threshold sets the number of first-party sites that a particular third-party item can be referenced from before it is blocked. Setting this value lower can help prevent more third-party sites from obtaining details about users' browsing, however doing so may cause compatibility issues on some websites. The allowed value range is 3-30.

If you enable this policy, the selected value will be enforced.

If you disable or do not configure this setting, the InPrivate Filtering threshold can be configured by clicking the Safety button, then clicking InPrivate Filtering, which is available only during an InPrivate Browsing session.

Supported on: At least Internet Explorer 8.0
