In an effort to enhance user privacy, Google has made yet another upgrade with the new auto-delete controls for Location, History, Web and App Activity.
The tech company announced that the new tool was created after users requested a much easier option to manage or delete unwanted data.

 

The tool has a time limit of 3 to 18 months, which users set for how long they want their activity data to be saved, after which the auto-delete will automatically delete unwanted data.

Also, data beyond the selected time limit will be wiped.

Google said the control tool will be rolled out in a few weeks.
