With Data Privacy Day on its way, Google Chrome is offering several new privacy and security features that are sure to bring convenience to users. These features can be found in the latest upgrade of this popular web browser, which offers more updates than ever before.
To clear your browsing data, simply type “clear browsing data” in the Chrome search bar and click on the shortcut button. This will open up a dedicated panel within Chrome’s settings where you can make adjustments accordingly. Google recently rolled this feature out to users worldwide; similar updates were also released back in December with new filters for the search bar.

Google is also introducing the usage of biometric authentication such as Face ID on iPhones or fingerprint recognition on Android devices to help secure and lock your Incognito session. This feature has already been deployed for Chrome users who have an iPhone/iPad and is in the process of being released for those with Android phones. To take advantage of this new security measure, go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Lock incognito tabs when you close Chrome.
Google recently revealed additional safety and privacy options in their blog post. Although many of these functions have already been accessible for some time, like the Privacy Guide that first showed up in Chrome 98, it is fantastic to observe more ways to oversee your data within Chrome. No matter what, it’s nice that Chrome is providing more facilities to manage your data. But still, if you prioritize data privacy over all else, then this web browser may not be the optimal choice for you.
