The information below is for guidance only and may not completely cover your tracks.
NOTE: If you want to be completely sure of not being tracked online, the safest way would be to access the internet at a local library or a friend’s house.
Internet browsers will save certain information as you surf the internet. The easiest way to find out what a person has been searching for, or what internet websites they have visited is by checking the Browser History and the Internet Cookies. These can be cleared as shown below but this in itself can show you have been looking at sites you do not want your partner to find out about because you have cleared your tracks. So if possible use a computer somewhere else as mentioned above.
We recommend using a modern browser in Private Browsing or Incognito mode, which doesn’t store your website history or cookies.
