Youtube is one of the most popular websites in the world, and has developed a reputation for being a haven for videos that range from educational to downright strange. For those who are concerned about their privacy, clearing your youtube history can be an important step. This blog post will outline how to clear your youtube history on any device.
Here is some basic steps:
1. Head to YouTube and once you’re logged in, click on the three bars in the upper left-hand corner. That will take you to the YouTube menu.
2. Select “History” from that page after which point there are a couple of options available: deleting individual videos or your entire watch history at one time .
3. If it’s just specific video(s) you want gone, select “remove” next them when they pop up (either by date or alphabetically).
4. On the other hand if this is an all out purge then choose delete for better privacy protection!

You’ll see a list under Activity controls with three options: Web & App Activity (which shows what apps are using data), Location History (to show where people have been looking for landmarks, restaurants etc.), or YouTube history which is pretty self-explanatory so you won’t spend time explaining it!

How do you clear all your browsing history?
The process is simple and can be done in a few easy steps. First, open the Chrome app at the top right of your screen.

Finally, tap Clear Data–this clears everything from this time period!
Does deleting history really delete?
It only erases the list of websites and pages with which you’ve been visiting. This isn’t just a problem for people who enjoy looking at adult content, either: Many users show up on company lists because they visit sites like YouTube or Facebook in their free time–without knowing these listings are accessible to employer-provided search engines. Deleting our browser’s cache would seem to be an easy fix but even this won’t erase what we’re viewing from being stored by third parties including those operating public WiFi networks. In fact, it might take us back in time if someone else has already seen what was displayed when he connected!
Does Google keep deleted history?
It’s not a simple yes or no answer. The company will still have access to your “deleted” information for audits and other internal uses. However, it won’t use the data to target ads at you nor customize search results based on what they find when looking through all of that stuff from 18 months ago (or more). If this bothers you, just disable Web History so there is less chance of anything being saved in the first place.
Can someone still see your history if you delete it?
Even when people try to erase their entire browsing history from Google Chrome, that information is not lost. In fact, Google has records about the way a person used its web browser related to deleted data and what was searched for at specific time periods – even so far as remembering how long searches were conducted before being redirected elsewhere on the internet
