As the Internet YouTube site plays such a large part in our daily lives, all of our interests remain in our YouTube search history. If you don’t delete your YouTube viewing and search history, this data collected from each account is used by big tech companies to create individual ‘user profiles’. These user profiles serve as the basis for selecting targeted advertisements or recommended videos.
Of course, it’s convenient to watch recommended videos based on YouTube search history. However, advertisements and videos that are presented to us before we even make a choice put us in a so-called “filter bubble” and prevent us from having more diverse information and broader interests. Additionally, if a user’s personal information falls into the hands of someone else, it will result in a serious invasion of privacy. In particular, it can be exploited for a phenomenon called cyber bullying. Using a VPN can help you avoid this damage by allowing you to change your connection location and hide your real IP address.
Have you decided to delete your YouTube search and viewing history? great! You can easily and conveniently delete YouTube search history by following the instructions below.
Internet privacy that cannot be taken away by anyone – directly protecting your digital life
Separate work is required because previously left comments or ‘like’ marks are not automatically deleted simply by deleting YouTube search terms or viewing history.
You can change the settings on the Google platform itself and set up automatic deletion of YouTube search history on a regular basis. However, Google only offers two options: deleting data after 3 months or 18 months.
A more reliable method than deleting your YouTube search history is to disable the YouTube history feature itself to prevent Google from collecting your YouTube search history in the first place. Just click the ‘Disable’ button in the ‘YouTube History’ section of your ‘My Activity’ page on Google.
Also, if you want to delete your YouTube channel as well as your search and viewing history, please read the related article explaining how to delete a YouTube channel.
If you don’t want to delete your YouTube search history or disable Google’s data collection features for personal reasons, we recommend using the virus and threat protection features of a premium VPN. This is because you can block the risk of targeted advertising or hacking without losing your history of watched YouTube videos.
Online security starts with just one click.
