From the cookies and permissions section, you can alter the permissions you want to give to a particular site, such as permission to access name, personal details, location details and much more. This way you can tailor your experience and ensure that the website can only access the data that you want it to access. Sometimes, there may be some data that the website will need access to, in order to provide you the right experience and in such cases, you may not be able to change your permission settings.
If the site you are visiting is suspicious, the first layer of protection is that it will not show up in the search results in case you have done a quick Google search, or if you have entered the URL directly and the site seems suspicious, the security profile window will give you a warning and you can immediately stop interacting with the site and protect yourself.
