- To keep a profile immutable for a run, omit `save_changes` (default) when creating the browser.
- Multiple browsers in parallel can use the same profile, but only one browser should write (`save_changes: true`) to it at a time. Parallel browsers with `save_changes: true` may cause profile corruption and unpredictable behavior.
- Profile data is encrypted end to end using a per-organization key.
