The web giants collect a huge amount of data on our centers of interest. These companies know us better than some of our friends. Here are some effective and simple rules to put in place on Google Chrome to better protect our privacy and personal data..
Your activity on the web is monitored
The question of personal information exploited by the big actors of the net is a hot topic. The CNIL, the data protection officer in France regularly publishes warnings and warnings on its website.
In fact, as soon as a user surfs on a website, downloads files or performs a search on the net, he leaves cookies and traces allowing him to be tracked. All this information related to its activities on the net is collected and then stored on Google's servers..
And do not think that by deleting the history of your Chrome browser you are safe from this data collection. Google knows a lot about you. Just go to my activity page, enter the credentials of your Google account to see all that the American company archives on you.
Google Chrome and personal data
Before you worry, be aware that it is possible to better control your personal data by activating certain privacy options on the Chrome browser . For example, you can block prediction services or search suggestions..
This will reduce the amount of data that Google collects about you. However, these control options are not enough to erase all the traces left by your internet browsing. The American firm will always be able to know the searches that you carry out on its search engine or the videos that you watch on the YouTube platform.
Change privacy policies for Google Chrome
The Google Chrome browser is by far the benchmark for web browsers for Android today. Its simplicity of use, its speed of loading web pages, its flawless ergonomics have won over the majority of Internet users. 
To reduce tracking of your online activity, we will now make some changes to the privacy settings of the Chrome browser.
- Launch the Chrome browser on your smartphone
- Click on the Menu button (3 aligned dots) then on the confidentiality section
Suggestions in case of navigation errors
This feature is very useful in case of problems during your navigation. On the flip side, this device allows Google to know what your interests are and the subjects that interest you. 
Uncheck the box to end suggestion systems. Note, however, that disabling this privacy setting will not prevent Google from tracking your visits. It will at most reduce your activity tracking.
Prohibit tracking
This device makes it possible to indicate to advertising agencies that you refuse the display of advertisements according to the other websites already visited. You have surely already happened to surf on an e-commerce site in search of a product. Then a few days later, by visiting another website, you see advertisements appearing offering the same type of product.
It is not by chance. A spy cookie has been saved on your mobile device. It allows you to inform partner advertising agencies of online stores about your online activities. By activating the tracking ban, advertisements will no longer take your interests into account.
Use a prediction service to load web pages faster
This is not a parameter strictly speaking related to your privacy. The aim of this system is to streamline your internet browsing by pre-loading in advance the pages likely to be visited.
This technology has drawbacks. It’s good to load pictures or pages into your phone’s memory if you don’t use it. Worse, if you have a mobile plan with a very low data quota, you risk consuming data for nothing.
