Web data on safari on websites I have not visited

Settings>Apps>safari>advanced>website data

One of the sites is forhims.com, I have never been on this site, or if I did it may have been as long ago as 10 or more years ago, but these are one of the sites showing data usage, it is not on web browser history or anywhere else, and there are a number of others doing the same thing.


I would appreciate it if someone could help, I can send screenshots if necessary.

Website data will include advertising, tracking cookies and related content. Most websites are clogged with such things. Its presence as stored data does not imply you deliberately loaded that specific website.


Just remove website data once in a while. You will need to log into websites for which you chose to store login credentials.
