In an effort to make privacy settings on its platform more transparent, Google has announced a new feature that allows users to set limits for how long the company can store the data it collects from users online activity.
Google in order to customize and improve the app experience for all users, collect information or data like user’s search history and other interactions in Google services. The stored data might also include the Chrome history and information from other websites and applications that use Google’s services, in case you have enabled that feature.
But not everyone is comfortable with the fact that Google is keeping a record of their online activity. With this new feature, you can choose certain settings for Google to automatically delete your data collected from web and app activity, after a time span of three or 18 months. Before this feature was announced, users had to manually delete their data from the Google app’s settings section.
The following steps will help you to locate this new feature and change the settings according to your desire.
