With chrome you right click on the chrome icon and select incognito mode.

Warning:
Incognito mode does not stop other sites or your ISP from seeing your IP address or your web activity. It only keeps your browsing history from being saved. It will not hide you from anyone except those in your household.
When you go into incognito mode read the explanation on the screen.
If you want to hide from the world you can use a VPN ( virtual private network) with that you can change your IP address to almost anywhere in the world and your provider does not see your activity, As you have effectively changed your identity.
