In future, we advise you to use private browsing. In this way, the history of the pages consulted is not retained. If you close the window, private browsing stops. However, if you add pages to your favourites or download documents, they will be saved in the memory of your computer or your phone. Starting private browsing differs from one Internet browser to another.
