Google will now automatically delete web, app activity, YouTube auto-delete too

Alphabet and Google Sundar Pichai has announced new privacy improvements to keep your information safe, including changes to its data retention practices across core products to keep less data by default. Google last year introduced auto-delete controls, which give users the choice to have Google automatically and continuously delete Location History, search, voice and YouTube activity data after 3 months or 18 months. Soon, when you're signed into your Google Account, you'll be able to search for things like "Google Privacy Checkup" and "Is my Google Account secure?" "We're also working to make it possible to stay in Incognito mode across Google apps, like Maps and YouTube, and will have more to share soon," he added.
