Incognito mode is a feature in Google Chrome that allows users to browse the web privately and keep their browsing activity private from other people who use the same device. When you open a new Incognito window, you are creating a new browsing session that does not save your activity data on your device or to a Google Account you are not signed into. Here are some key features of Incognito mode in Chrome:

• Browsing history: Chrome does not save your browsing history, cookies, and site data, or information entered in forms.
• Files and bookmarks: Files you download and bookmarks you create are kept.
• Third-party cookies: You can choose to block third-party cookies when you open a new Incognito window.
• Privacy protection: Chrome doesnt tell websites, including Google, when youre browsing privately in Incognito mode.
• Limitations: Incognito mode does not prevent websites from seeing your activity or location, and it does not prevent you from telling a website who you are.

To open an Incognito window in Chrome, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+N (Windows) or Command+Shift+N (Mac), or click on the three vertical dots on the upper right corner of the browser and select "New Incognito Window" from the list. When you close all Incognito windows, Chrome discards any site data and cookies associated with that browsing session. It is important to note that Incognito mode does not hide your browsing from your internet service provider or your employer, and it does not wipe out files youve downloaded.
