What can people see about my browsing?

Microsoft Edge will delete your browsing history, cookies, and site data, as well as passwords, addresses, and form data when you close all InPrivate windows. Other people using this device won't see your browsing activity but your school, workplace, and internet service provider might still be able to access this data.

Your collections, favorites, and downloaded files will be saved, so you can access them next time you use Microsoft Edge. Changes to your collections and favorites will continue to sync across all your signed-in devices. Learn more

What data does Microsoft Edge collect?

Microsoft Edge will only collect data that you have consented to providing. While browsing InPrivate, the websites you've visited are never used for product improvement and are not associated with your Microsoft account. Privacy statement

How does InPrivate search with Microsoft Bing protect me?

When a search query is submitted using InPrivate search, data that can be used to identify your account or device is removed. Bing will still provide local results based on your IP location, which can't be traced back to your account or device. Links to sign in with your Microsoft Account won't appear at the top of the page on Bing while using InPrivate search, and automatic sign in on Bing will be turned off.

Your InPrivate searches are never saved to Bing or Microsoft Edge browsing history and will never influence or appear in Bing search suggestions.

How can I control my tracking prevention settings when browsing InPrivate?

When you browse InPrivate, you can set tracking prevention to "Strict" using the toggle above or by going to settings. If you don't change this, tracking prevention will remain the same as a normal browsing window. Learn more.
