Ipad Cookies showing on work Laptop

    Hi

    Can anyone help with this query.

    I have an Ipad for personal use and an Iphone for work/personal.

    I only use the Ipad at home and have nothing to do with work on it.

    I thought I was imagining it at first but I definitely am not but when I google something at home on the ipad and then google the same in the office on my laptop searches I done at home are showing as visited on google as in highlighted a diff colour which must mean cookies are being transferred.

    It seems mad and makes no sense to me the only connection I can think of is I have work e-mail set up on my Iphone and the Ipad and Iphone are prob somehow synced.

    Has anyone heard of this before or know how to stop it happening.

    Cheers

    No using Windows Explorer in work and Safari on the Ipad

    You're signed into Google. It uses your Google account (e.g. gmail account) to track searches across multiple devices. You can stop it by going here: https://history.google.com/
