This is something you can call as the secure browsing which will not let the other user of the same browser to see the information of your that have saved while browsing. Suppose you have downloaded some content and don't wish to see that to other user of the Computer then the Private browsing will help for the same. The private browsing will not keep the history of the browsing once you have turn it on. After you finish Disable the private browsing to use the browser by other.
