  2. Go to the Privacy section.

  3. Tap Clear data.

  4. Enable the necessary options:

    • History — List of your search queries and visited pages.
    • Website data — Cookie files (they may store usernames, passwords, information about items added to the cart, etc.).
    • Cache — Copies of certain data (such as music, videos, images) that help the page load faster when you revisit it, reducing network load.
    • Warnings for sites — If a site asks permission to perform an action (for example, run a plugin) and you select Always for this site, this action is performed by default in the future. After you clear the warning list, sites ask for permissions again.

Managing personal data on Yandex services

When you use Yandex services, they save some of your personal data — for example, your search queries. We store this data with utmost care and make sure it's well-protected. Our repositories comply with SOC 2, which is one of the most reliable international standards for managing user data.

You can manage your personal data under Your data on Yandex.

  1. Go to Your data on Yandex and make sure that you're logged in with the correct Yandex ID.

  2. Click Download data.

  3. Tap Create archive.

When Yandex uploads the archive, you will receive an email notifying you that you can download the file. If you don’t have a Yandex email, you will have to check the archive loading status on the page.

Note

The archive is password-protected. To learn how to get a password and open the archive, go to Yandex ID Help.

  1. Go to Your data on Yandex and make sure that you're logged in with the correct Yandex ID.

  2. In the Delete data section, click the service name. A list opens with the data that Yandex stores for this service.

    Note

    If the service isn’t there, click Show more at the bottom of the list.

  3. Select the line with the data type.

  4. Click Uninstall in the window that opens.

After deletion, almost all data becomes unavailable. Yandex will store some data for a certain period of time because this is required by law.
