People around the world turn to Google Search to find information and make important decisions. We’re deeply committed to making sure you can do that safely and with the privacy you expect.
Today, we’re announcing a new tool to add extra protection to the Search history saved to your Google Account. And we’re sharing a few reminders about the features we offer to keep your searches safer and more private.
A new privacy protection for your Search history
If your Web & App Activity setting is on, your Search history is saved to your account to enable more personalized experiences across Google services. You can view and delete that Search history any time at My Activity.
But maybe you share a device, and want to make sure others who use it can’t go into My Activity and look at your Search history. Now, we’ve given you a way to put extra protection around the searches saved in your account.
When you’re signed in, you can now choose to require extra verification for My Activity.
