Turn off Personal results

Important: When "Personal results" are off, you won't get personalized predictions or recommendations based on your past searches. If "Web & App Activity" is on, to allow more personalized experience across Google services, your Search history is saved in your Google Account. Learn how to find and control your Web and App Activity.

If you’re signed in to your Google Account and "Personal results" are on, you’ll receive personalized predictions and recommendations in Google Search. If you don’t want to get predictions and recommendations, you can turn off Personal results.
