Take Control Of Google & Get Help Too
This is for those using Windows, Android, Chrome and Apple operating systems.
Google has a help center that is really helpful. Did you know when you search using Google, when you’re signed in to your Google, your searches are saved online. Indeed they are, and clearing your browser’s history won’t clear the stuff on online, but you can clear it and also prevent it, but you have to know where to go and what to do. That’s where Google’s Help Center comes in.
Look above. If you click on “Delete searches & browsing activity, you’ll see this:
