Utilize Private Browsing Appropriately

Remember

Use private browsing modes when you want to prevent your browsing history, cookies, or site data from being saved on your local device. This is useful for sensitive searches or when using a shared computer. However, understand that it does not make you anonymous online; your ISP, employer (on work networks), and websites can still track your activity.

Why

Private browsing offers a degree of local privacy by not storing session data on the device. This can be helpful for specific situations, but it’s important not to mistake it for comprehensive online anonymity or security, which require tools like VPNs and other privacy-enhancing practices.
