GPG stores the password after encription?

[Kovács T. Péter]

Hi,
I am using GnuPG 2.4.7 under Linux.
I encrypted a file with "gpg -c". I used a long password.
Some minutes later, I tried to decrypt this encrypted file with "gpg -v". Decryption happened without asking a password.
I think is GPG-agent stored the password (?) If this happened, how long it stores the password? Password stored in encrypted form? How can I disable to store the password?Peter
