Google-chrome – I logged into the work computer with the personal email, can the employer see the google search history on Chrome

google-chromeinternet

Stupid mistake here. Today at home using my work computer I logged into my gmail on Chrome to check my personal email. I then went to look something up in google and saw several google search suggestions that I only typed in on my home computer; I don't have sync on, but I guess google searches are shared between devices if you're logged in on the same google account.

Is there any way for my work to see my google search history. I double checked and it doesn't seem websites/all browsing history or anything is shared, it's just that in Chrome google autofills certain past searches whenever I type.

Best Answer

Assuming that you didn't actively visit any of those sites on your work computer and assuming that you are now logged out of your google account on that computer then your employer has no way to view that browsing history as it is stored on your google account not locally. The only way that they could see it is if they logged into your google account.

If you did visit any of those sites on your work computer then your employer could see that history.
