The instructions include, in response to the page identifier matching a first page of the set of pages, obtaining a first profile corresponding to the first page and retrieving the first page from a first website corresponding to the first page. The instructions include, based on the first page, generating a new page according to the first profile and transmitting the new page to the browsing device. The instructions include, in response to receiving a selection from the new page on the browsing device, forwarding login credentials of the first profile to the first website and, in response to receiving a return page from the first website, forwarding the return page to the browsing device for display.",
