GuardianBlock, step by step.
What happens on your PC, and what your keyholder sees.
How it works, step by step
It starts with someone you trust.
Your keyholder accepts from their own account, with two-step sign-in. There is no reusable unlock password.
It runs on your PC, not your network.
It works inside Windows and Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. It does not alter DNS, VPN, firewall, proxy, or network-drive settings.
Gambling sites stop in the browser.
Your keyholder gets no browsing-history feed, and a blocked visit doesn't alert them by default.
Known alternative browsers can't run.
They're blocked from running on the protected Windows account.
Adding a block is yours.
Add any site, any time. Your keyholder sees the list, not your visits.
Loosening takes two.
Removing a block or opening a site for a while waits for your keyholder's yes.
Who decides each change.
- Add a Custom Block
- You, any time
- Open a blocked site for a while
- Your keyholder
- Remove or pause a Custom Block
- Your keyholder
- Replace your keyholder
- Your keyholder
- Turn protection off early
- Your keyholder, then at least 24 hours, then up to 48 hours when your keyholder can still cancel
Gambling sites in the strictest category cannot be opened through a temporary exception, even with your keyholder's approval.
This applies during your agreed commitment. Support and safety recovery stay available, and once the commitment ends, you no longer need your keyholder's yes.
