I don't know! Why doesn't the person who owns this website find out?
I don't own the website but I found this out:This is the origin of biography according to the Oxford dictionary:
late 17th century: from French biographie or modern Latin biographia, from medieval Greek, from biOS 'life' + -graphia 'writing'
As a prefix auto- according to the Oxford dictionary: comes from the Greek autos 'self'
But according to wikipedia:
The Word autobiography was first used deprecatingly by William Taylor in 1797 in the English periodical the Monthly Review, when he suggested the Word as a hybrid but condemned it as 'pedantic'; but its next recorded use was in its present sense by Robert Southey in 1809
