<p><a href="https://www.zoho.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Zoho,</a> a global technology company specializing in computer software and web-based business tools, has launched Ulaa, a privacy-centric browser. Ulaa offers users an unrivalled browsing solution that universally blocks tracking and website surveillance, ensuring the utmost security and protection for personal data and online activities.</p>



<p>Ulaa is the next step in Zoho Corporation&#8217;s<a href="https://www.zoho.com/privacy-commitment.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> long-standing commitment</a> to privacy and is designed to help users protect their personal information and internet activity from the prying eyes of user tracking. The newly-launched web browser’s name originates from the&nbsp;Tamil language&nbsp;and connotes the beginning of a journey into a secure browsing experience. </p>



<p>Speaking on this, Kehinde Ogundare, Country Manager, Zoho Nigeria, said,</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><p>Not many browsers on the market today are built to protect user privacy. They were created to protect the respective company&#8217;s ad-based business models and surveillance companies that complement them. This conflict between user&#8217;s preferences and browser&#8217;s business models means end users lose.&nbsp;</p></blockquote>



<p>He further said, <em>&#8220;With Ulaa, users&nbsp;don&#8217;t have to compromise their privacy to browse the web, which unfortunately has become a surveillance minefield. Zoho&#8217;s commitment to privacy and a privacy-centric business model allows us to offer a conflict-free, privacy-centric browser. &#8220;</em></p>



<p>This new offering from Zoho is meticulously crafted and firmly grounded in three fundamental pillars that drive the battle against tracking and surveillance.</p>
