Get into the habit of deleting your browsing data.

This story was originally published in 2019 and has been updated.

Fortunately, all of today’s web browsers make it easy to erase your web browing history and wipe away your online tracks. In this guide, you’ll find out about the information your browser automatically logs, what that data does, and how to get rid of it.Like most browsers, Google Chrome lets you choose which types of data to erase., you should know what that information is and what it does. After all, on some occasions, you might want to clear specific types of files and not others.

Browsers also track your download history, which is just a list of files you’ve downloaded. Don’t confuse this history with the actual files themselves, which live somewhere on your computer. It’s simply a list of references to them, which can help when you’ve previously downloaded a file and can’t find it, or you want to download the same file again.

While you’re looking at cookies, you might see that your browser distinguishes standard cookies from those from third-parties. Third-party cookies track behavior across multiple sites; they’re usually injected into ads rather than being part of the actual page code. You can blame this type of cookie for personalized ads: If you’ve spent some time searching multiple sites for tents and you start seeing tent ads everywhere, third-party cookies are responsible.
