sessionStorage.clear();

[…] Cookies ?

var cookies = document.cookie;

for (var i = 0; i < cookies.split(";").length; ++i)
{
    var myCookie = cookies[i];
    var pos = myCookie.indexOf("=");
    var name = pos > -1 ? myCookie.substr(0, pos) : myCookie;
    document.cookie = name + "=;expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT";
}

is there any way to get the value back after clear these ?

No, there isn’t. But you shouldn’t rely on this if this is related to a security question.
