Deleting browser his­tory: Apple Safari

These instruc­tions will explain how to delete your stored Apple Safari browser data (browser his­tory, browser cache).

If you are looking for other browser instruc­tions, you can find these here.

  1. In the menu bar, click Safari and then Clear his­tory.
  2. Select the period of time at least cov­ering your e-banking ses­sion. For instance entry the last hour.
  3. Click Clear His­tory.
     

Alter­na­tively, you can also surf in incog­nito or pri­vate mode, so that your browser doesn’t store any data in the first place.

To do so, open a new incog­nito window by clicking “File” and then “New Pri­vate Window”.  Or simul­ta­ne­ously press “Shift + Cmd + N”.

Instruc­tions for alter­na­tive browsers:

Browser his­tory (also called browser cache) denotes a type of buffer memory of your browser. Browsers will store con­tent of web­sites vis­ited (e. g. images), so that they don’t have to be re-down­loaded every time you visit, and the site can there­fore be dis­played more quickly.
