# Access Denied and Cloudflare Error 1010

Access Denied can have several causes. Cloudflare Error 1010 specifically concerns the browser's signature, not a proven datacenter-IP block.

## Why it happens

Cloudflare documents Error 1010 as a block based on the browser's signature. Changing IP does not change that signature. Contact the site owner about the block. See [Cloudflare's Error 1010 guidance](https://developers.cloudflare.com/support/troubleshooting/http-status-codes/cloudflare-1xxx-errors/error-1010/).

A generic Access Denied message can also come from account permissions or other access rules. Record the exact error before choosing a remedy.

## What the page says

Any of these is a string the page showed:

- "Access Denied"
- "You don't have permission to access this resource"
- "Error 1010"

## When to try Aluvia

If you have evidence of an IP-related refusal on a public page, use the [quickstart](/docs) to test a different IP. Keep the URL and browser session unchanged so you can compare the result. Do not treat Error 1010 alone as that evidence.

## If access is still denied

Stop retrying and give the operator the error code and any request identifier. A login, permission, paywall, or browser-signature restriction needs its own resolution. [Other blocked-page messages](/unblock).

## About Aluvia

Aluvia is a local CLI and proxy daemon for the existing Chrome or Chromium browser. An eligible IP-related test needs command access to that browser's host, Node.js 18 or later, and a usable local browser. First 10 MB free without an account, API key or payment; then 2 USD per GB. Initial setup can restart Chrome.

If a separate IP-related problem is established after the checks above, follow the [complete trial steps](/docs), including result checks, undo and the human payment handoff.
