Browser local storage. Some websites use local storage called "sessionStorage" and "localStorage" to save information; "sessionStorage" is automatically deleted when you close the browser program, but to delete "localStorage" you must clear the browser history.

Form and password memory. Many browsers memorize the data you enter in web forms (for example, your email, contact details, or your password to access a page) so you don't have to type them again.

Browser cache memory, which contains a copy of previously visited pages to speed up their display if you access them again later. Browser history, browser memory and cache are outside our control. It is important that you delete all this information if you use a device that is not yours (for example, someone else's smartphone or a public computer).
