Answer 1

In some circumstances, sending a 302 Found response and redirecting to another page could work. If you need to hide query string parameters, you could set a session cookie with them on the initial, redirected response, then use them to serve the response on the real page. Just remember to clear the cookie when you serve the page.

But this is an entirely server-side way to do it, and while you can hide sensitive data, you'll still see some page on the domain in the history.
