What is Ads Personalisation?
Note : When you turn on ad personalisation, you give Google permission to show you ads based on your activity on:
- Google services (i.e. Search, YouTube)
- Websites and apps that partner with Google to show ads
This info helps Google show ads that may be useful to you. You can choose to exclude info from websites and apps through ‘MORE OPTIONS’.
