Wave Browser

Most users rightfully demand transparency, security, and privacy from the software they install.

Wave Browser has faced concerns regarding its safety, with some mistakenly categorizing it as malware, a potentially unwanted program (PUP), or a threat to user privacy.

We want to set the record straight: Wave Browser is a secure, privacy-conscious, and legitimate web browser that prioritizes user experience and data protection.

Is Wave Browser a Virus or Malware?

No, Wave Browser is not a virus, malware, or any form of malicious software. A virus is a program designed to spread, replicate, and harm devices, while malware encompasses software created with the intent to compromise security.

Wave Browser does none of these things. It does not engage in unauthorized access, data breaches, or harmful actions against users or their devices.

Additionally, Wave Browser has received certification from AppEsteem, an independent organization that evaluates software for compliance with industry standards.

This certification ensures that our software meets the highest security and privacy guidelines and is free from deceptive practices.

Is Wave Browser a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP)?

No. A PUP is software that users may install unknowingly or struggle to remove. Some users may have downloaded Wave Browser bundled with other software, leading to confusion.

However, Wave Browser:

  • Follows industry-best practices for installation — it never forces itself onto devices.
  • Provides clear uninstall instructions, allowing users to remove it quickly if they choose.

Does Wave Browser Sell User Data?

Never. Unlike many free software products that profit from selling user data, Wave Browser does not sell or misuse your personal information. Our privacy policy is transparent, outlining only data necessary for functionality and security.

Wave Browser does not sell or share personal data with third parties or use deceptive data collection practices.
