“Browse the internet, in incognito mode “google chrome” or private mode “safari or microsoft edge” to protect your data and information and unlock better sales, services and information around the world. Step your level up, and use search engine such as DuckDuckGo and a VPN to truly secure your information.” – Jixi Fox 🙂

Here are list of Browsers:
Google Chrome: My favorite, but technically I have 5 installed on my computer.
“Chrome has incognito mode.“
Safari: Well I have a macbook and iphone it comes standard, but you can also install this browser on a windows computer.
“Safari has private mode.”
Microsoft Edge: I would say my third choice of a browser, but it’s coming in a close 2nd to Safari, via it has developed a lot and has a lot of perks especially if you are a gamer. 🙂
“Edge has private mode.”
Firefox: I love this browser, it great and super useful. It was the best browser at a time in the world and still is. It was the most secure on mobile devices. Also a great additional to have on your app/software list. 🙂
“Firefox has private mode.”
Internet Explorer: Expired and out of date, please no not use. You are highly likely to be hacked if you use this browser. You have been warned.

PROS of browsing incognito or private mode:
- You can see what general view of a website or sales that happens for everyone from a company that is not targeting you and only serving you a curated view of their site, store or offers.
- Cookies are not saved on to sites you view.
- The website you view cannot collect data on who you are based on the profile, your browser and websites already have collected about you.
- You will see better offers for sales, services and more via you not targeted.
- You can feel much safer knowing you are in control of your browsing session.
- There are many more perks, try it out.
