I'm not quite sure what you mean by "advanced" website data, but Safari's History and Website Data is stored locally, on your iPhone. That history is retained until you erase it:


Clear the history and cookies from Safari on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod - Apple Support


If you scroll down to Advanced > Website Data, you can examine the amount of storage each site is using.
