Your Privacy - Hiding Your Tracks
For reasons of privacy, security or safety, you may not want others to know you've visited this website.
If you have any reason to want to 'hide your tracks' you can try the steps below to make it harder for someone to find out you've visited this (or any other) website.
By clearing the 'cache' and 'history' you make it much harder (but not impossible) for another person who has access to your computer to find out where you've been on the internet.
Cleaning out these files will free up memory/disc space on your computer, so it's a good maintenace procedure; and that's a good explanation if questioned.
