By default, Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge browsers in Windows 10, have the function Do not track disabled, this function is linked to all the information, such as visited websites , preferences, frequent sites, etc., to which we access the network to later offer promotions or offers based on these criteria..
By default, this feature is disabled in all other current browsers such as Firefox, Safari, Chrome , etc., and only IE 10 has it enabled by default.
One of the reasons why Windows 10 established this policy that our data be taken, is because one of the features of Windows is associated with the treatment that Microsoft gives to the information of its users which has created a certain level of Nonconformity in thousands of users worldwide..
For this reason TechnoWikis will explain the way to enable this function and thus prevent everything we do from falling into unwanted hands.
