How I Delete Cookies on Safari Browser in Quick Steps

If you are reading this then it probably means you are one of those fellows who pay more attention to their privacy on the Internet. Well this a good attitude anyway. Today on BossTechy we are looking at how you can delete Cookies on Safari browser in f w quick steps but before that, what are cookies.

Put simply, a packet of data sent by an Internet server to a browser, which is returned by the browser each time it subsequently accesses the same server, used to identify the user or track their access to the server. If you are familiar with sites with log in forms such as Facebook, while you log in you must have noticed a check box which reads something like “keep me logged in” or “remember me.”
Checking the box means that the next time you visit same site using same phone or computer you don’t have to log in again.

What actually happened in the example above is that when you checked the box you gave the web server permission to save your information for future use. When saving cookies information such as Name, email address, password, IP address can be collected and you can be tracked down with this information.
