Parental controls for Chromebook

Chromebooks are homework machines and YouTube machines — and web filtering on them usually depends on school or Google-account settings you don't control. Guardian-CORR filters the connection itself: while a Chromebook is on your protected home network, blocked categories can't load in any browser, incognito mode included.

Guardian-CORR protects your Chromebook while it is connected to your protected home network. Away from home — on cellular or another Wi-Fi network — the device uses its normal, unfiltered connection. For away-from-home coverage on phones, you can pair Guardian-CORR with the device's built-in controls.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install anything on the Chromebook?▾

No. Filtering happens on the Guardian gateway, so the Chromebook is protected as soon as it's connected to your home Wi-Fi — no app, no profile install.

Does it work when the Chromebook is away from home?▾

No — Guardian-CORR protects the Chromebook while it is connected to your protected home network. On cellular or another Wi-Fi network, it uses its normal connection.

Can my child turn the protection off from the Chromebook?▾

Not while at home. The rules live on the gateway, not the device — there's nothing on the Chromebook to remove, reset, or sign out of.

Protect every Chromebook in your home

Plug in the gateway, create a profile, and every screen in the house is protected.
