Hello  
We have a link on one of our website that add those informations when we click on it: ?\_\_hstc=115855577.e44d66434b0cc4cc04d251b4ec1be3e5.1598406141055.1598910101055.1598912664998.16&\_\_hssc=115855577.25.1598912664998&\_\_hsfp=2692169778  
I tried to uncheck the Automatic cross-domain linking, but it was unsuccessful, the link is still getting all those extra information.  
Is there any other options I should verify to remove this extra info from the URL?  
Thank you for help 🙂

Hey @louismr

Are you still experiencing this issue? There is a good chance that it is a cached version. Have you attempted to view the page in an incognito browser?

Hi @louismr , I just looked at your portal and it appears that the automatic cross-domain linking is still active. Can you try turning it off again. Here is a [knowledge base article](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/reports/set-up-sources-tracking) on the subject if you need
