Why is my Safari History being cleared?

My Safari v.13.1 History is being cleared from time to time but I am not knowingly doing it. I thought it may be caused by clearing the Safari History on an iPad that is a Trusted Device using my Apple ID but that doesn't seem to be the case. Any suggestions are appreciated.

MacBook Pro 15”, macOS 10.15

1) Open safari

2) Click on "Safari" on the upper left side of the screen

3) Click "Preferences"

4) Then go to the tab labeled "General"

5) On that page, there is a section titled, "Remove History Items"

6) Check to see how often your history is being deleted. You are able to select how often you would like for it to delete. I have mine set for every year


I hope this helps! I hope you have a great rest of your day! Stay safe and healthy!
