How to Auto-clear browser history while leaving Brave browser?

When you’re done browsing the internet, it’s always a good idea to clear your browser history. This helps protect your privacy, and it also makes it harder for others to track what you’ve been doing online. Brave is a great browser that offers lots of privacy and security features, but one thing that it doesn’t do by default is clear your browsing history when you exit the browser. In this article, we will explain how to set up Brave to automatically clear your history every time you close the browser.

Why is clearing browser data important?

Whenever you visit a website, your browser stores some information about that site. This includes things like the site’s name, the pages you’ve visited on that site, and any login information that you might have entered. Over time, this information can build up and it can be used to track your online activity. If you’re using a shared or public computer, it’s especially important to clear your browsing data before you log off. That way, nobody else will be able to see what websites you’ve been visiting.
