Cover your tracks

Domestic abuse is not just violence and often includes controlling behaviour. If you are scared your partner will find out you’ve been here, here’s how you can cover your tracks.

Use a “private browsing” function.  At the end of your session remember to close your private browsing window. See below for how to cover your tracks in different browsers.

  • Start Chrome and click the three dot icon in the top right corner of the screen. Click New Incognito Window and start browsing.
  • You can press Ctrl + Shift + N to bring up a new incognito window without entering the Chrome settings menu.
  • Before opening the browser, you can right click the Chrome icon, then select “New Incognito window”.
