Internet browsers keep track of a user's browsing history.  In most cases, this behavior is useful as it provides an easy way to return to important webpages that you have visited in the past.  In some cases, however, this causes problems.  Sometimes there are multiple users that need to access the same online resources such as Canvas.  In these instances, clearing the browsing data when one user finishes will ensure that the next user can log in to his/her account successfully without any history left behind from the previous user.  Below you will find official documentation from some popular web browsers outlining how to clear browsing data.
