Missing Safari Favorites on iPad

So apparently I use to have a lot of stuff saved on my favorites however soon enough they all disappeared for some reason I don’t know but I think this privacy report must’ve had something to do with it what do you think and can I undo this?

Same thing happened to me yesterday evening. A privacy report suddenly appeared and then all of my favourites vanished and I can't seem to get them back. Have put the ones I can remember back in manually, but very annoying.


The privacy report then appeared to become my default start page when I clicked on Safari, so I don't know what is going on.


There is also a symbol I don't recognise permanently in the search bar now - a rectangle with two lines underneath (one long and one shorter). What is that about?


Would like to know what has happened.
