Google has agreed to delete billions of browsing data to settle an incognito class action lawsuit.
The tech giant also agreed to update its disclaimer on private browsing practices.
Google said it would not pay any damages.
This week, Google agreed to clear a large amount of browsing data to resolve the infamous Incognito Mode lawsuit, which first came to light in 2020, The Wall Street Journal reported.
The lawsuit alleges that Google Chrome tracks users’ browsing data even when in “incognito” mode, which allows users to browse without saving their browsing history. It also claims the tech giant was not forthcoming about its data policies and misled customers.
