Private Browsing Mode for iPad disables web history in the Safari browser. When you're done using Safari and leave the private tabs, no one can go back into the Safari browser to see what you were doing.

Safari has a special section for private tabs that you can access by choosing Private. Tap the Private button to put Safari into incognito mode.

Use Safari as you normally would. It doesn’t remember which pages you visit. Search the web or open a URL as you would in normal mode.
