From the Wyoming SBDC Network: Did you know over 70% of people worldwide use Google Chrome as their primary browser? While it’s the most popular, it’s also owned by one of the world’s largest advertising companies - meaning tracking your data is built right into their business model. 

Popular doesn’t always mean safe. Your everyday browsing habits could be leaving your personal information and business data open to tracking or hackers. Join the Wyoming SBDC Network for a no-cost webinar on browser specs and alternatives, June 25 at noon: https://shorturl.at/6a8TC
