When we browse the internet we leave a trace about the pages we visit wherever we go. Many times we do not pay interest to this kind of thing and we do not pay all the attention our privacy deserves on the network.
We use web browsers to search for any type of information on the network. In addition to providing us with the information that interests us, we can customize your homepage to our liking or restore them to their default settings at the time we want. It is important that the type of navigation we perform is safe.
When we access the websites in the different browsers, they keep a record of all our browsing history and all those pages we have visited are stored. This can be useful without needing to access a site again, but we don't remember its URL. On the other hand we find the disadvantage that privacy in this case is minimal. Anyone who uses the same equipment will be able to see in a simple way what web pages we have visited and what we have been looking for.
