Browsing history refers to a record of web pages visited by a user on a particular device. It includes information such as URLs, timestamps, and page titles.
Think of browsing history as a diary of your online adventures. Just like you can flip through the pages of a diary to see what you did in the past, your browsing history keeps track of the websites you've visited.
Incognito Mode: Incognito mode is a feature available in web browsers that allows users to browse the internet without their actions being recorded in the browsing history.
Cache: The cache is a temporary storage location on a computer or device where recently accessed data is stored for quicker retrieval. Browsing history may be stored in the cache.
Tracking Cookies: Tracking cookies are cookies used by advertisers and marketers to track user behavior across different websites and deliver targeted advertisements based on their browsing history.
