What is "Secret Mode"?
Google Chrome has a secret mode function for browsing with almost no private information such as Internet browsing history, entered passwords, and cookies.
To open the secret mode, with Google Chrome in the active window, press "Ctrl" + "Shift" + "N" on the keyboard to open it.

Warning when using add-on in secret mode.
If the browsing history etc. is recorded by the add-on, the browsing history will remain even when browsing in secret mode.
Therefore, it should be kept in mind that if you enable add-ons in secret mode more and more, the merit of secret mode that it is difficult to keep a history of user operations and actions will be diminished.
I recommend that you enable only the minimum required add-ons.
