Some bots and bad actors attempt to bypass fraud protection tools like Click Guardian by disabling JavaScript in their web browser. JavaScript is used by over 94% of websites today—including our tracking system—so when it’s disabled, important data collection methods may be blocked.
The Block Visitors with JavaScript Disabled feature allows you to stay protected, even when someone tries to sidestep detection by turning JavaScript off.
Why This Feature Matters
Click Guardian (like tools such as Google Analytics) uses JavaScript as part of its tracking script. Disabling JavaScript can:
Prevent key tracking actions from running
Obscure the visitor’s activity
Help bots and fraudulent users avoid detection
By enabling this feature, you instruct Click Guardian to automatically block any user or bot that visits your site with JavaScript disabled.
What You Need to Do
To use this feature effectively:
Go to your Click Guardian dashboard
Navigate to Settings
Locate and enable “Block Visitors with JavaScript Disabled”
Make sure both parts of the tracking code are installed on your website:
The main
<script>(placed in the<head>)The
<noscript>fallback (placed just after the opening<body>tag)
Without the <noscript> fallback installed, this feature won’t be able to detect or block users without JavaScript.
Don’t Forget Your Other Rules
For full protection, we also recommend setting up your Excessive Clicking Rules to block repeat or suspicious clicks over time. Combining these features gives you a more complete fraud prevention strategy.
