What is Private Browsing incognito mode?

Privacy mode or private browsing or incognito mode is a privacy feature in web browsers to disable logging of browsing history and web cache. This means When you use InPrivate tabs or incognito mode, your browsing data (like your history, temporary internet files, and cookies) isn’t saved on your PC once you’re done.

However, this does not mean you are anonymous on the Internet. Each page that you visit still recognizes your IP address. If someone had the ability to view your IP address history for legal purposes, an ISP, website, and even a search engine server log could be used to track you.
