non-SSL indicator Appears for most websites, which means that the site is not using a secure connection. This is not important for many websites, like a news source or weather forecast, but you should avoid entering sensitive personal information on these pages.
HTTPS indicator Appears if the site is using a secure connection. Always check for this icon when entering sensitive information on the web, like your credit card number or birth date. A secure connection makes it nearly impossible for someone to access your information.
Insecure HTTPS indicator Appears if Chrome detects a problem with a site's secure connection. Never enter personal or sensitive information on an insecure site.

Incognito mode A browsing mode which does not make Chrome more secure—it only stops Chrome from saving history and cookies for that session. Don't use this to view any websites that you wouldn't feel safe viewing in a regular Chrome window. Allows you to browse the web without recording your history or storing cookies. This is a great way to keep your browsing history secret when planning a party or buying a gift for someone who shares your computer.
Targeted advertisements Websites that partner with Google to bring you ads that they think you might be interested in. To deliver these, Google needs to record information about your interests and demographics, such as your age and gender. This information is based on the sites you visit, even if you're not signed in to a Google account. If you're not comfortable sharing this information, Google allows you to opt out of these.
