| Well so far government agencies could trace the behavior of the search engines records,profiles etc; but according to google it is now going to be anonymous for increasing privacy concerns.Well certain websites monitor the keyword usage behvior to enable website builders select proper tags for their websites meta tags. However only the rating of the keyword is used and any personal information is shared with others.As the previous answerer says autocomplete actually stores information on your computer in cookies and not on their servers. |
