Use your Chrome history to personalize Google
By default, Chrome history that's saved to your Google Account is also added to Web & App Activity. Your activity may be used to personalize your experience on other Google products, like Search or ads. For example, you may see a news story recommended in your feed based on your Chrome history.
You can always control your Web & App Activity in your Google Account. Learn more about seeing and controlling Web & App Activity.
