Many websites including Facebook collect your on-device data such as cookies to serve you targeted advertising. Privacy conscious users prefer browsing in Google Chrome's Incognito Mode than the regular browsing. 

Google Chrome's privacy mode, however, doesn't completely bar sites or applications from tracking you. Over the years, hackers and developers have found loopholes in the incognito mode and have managed to track you and your web activity.
