Notes:
- User knowledge helps set browser privacy controls.
- Browser acts as a gatekeeper between user and website.

- User can identify trustworthy websites by understanding web basics.

This diagram shows three main parts: User, Web Browser, and Website.

The User interacts with the Web Browser, which loads websites. Understanding how the browser works helps the user control privacy settings and avoid unsafe websites.

Data flows between these parts. Knowing this flow helps users protect their personal information and find reliable content.

By understanding the web, users become empowered to make safer and smarter choices online.
