Your controls on Google ads settings

The Google Ads Settings has three main controls that are useful:

• When you’re signed in to your Google Account
  • Ads Personalisation
• When you’re signed out of your Google Account
  • Ads Personalisation Across the Web
  • Ads Personalisation on Google Search

Ads Personalisation

Google displays ads in many locations, but they fall into two basic categories:

• Ads on Google services (e.g. Search, YouTube) –– YouTube ads.
• Ads that appear on 2+ million non-Google websites and apps that partner with Google to show ads.

Ads Personalisation controls the Google ads you see when you’re signed in to your Google Account. It applies to all browsers and devices where we know you’re signed in. This is how it works:

• Ads Personalisation on: Google will use the information in your Google Account to personalise the ads that you see both on Google services and on websites and apps that partner with Google to show ads.
• Ads Personalisation off: Google will not use your information to personalise ads. Ads may still be based on information such as the content of the website or app that you’re viewing, or your general location.

If Ads Personalisation is on, you can tick the box below it to also use Google Account activity and information to improve ads on the 2+ million websites and apps that partner with Google to show ads. By including additional activity, Google will:

1. Include your browsing data from many websites and apps that partner with Google, including those that show ads from Google, in your Google Account.
2. Store that data with other data in your Google Account based on your Activity controls preferences.
3. Use Google Account activity to make ads across the web more relevant for you, improve the relevance of ads on those websites and apps, and improve Google services.

Google Ads Personalisation Across the Web

Ads Personalisation Across the Web controls the Google ads you see when you’re signed out of your Google Account and browsing the non-Google websites and apps. Google will use your browsing data on partner websites and apps to show you ads in those places.

Ads Personalisation on Google Search

Ads Personalisation on Google Search controls the ads you see when you’re signed out of your Google Account and using Google Search. Google will use your activity on Google Search, like your previous searches, to show you ads on Google Search.

If you sign in to Google with multiple accounts
Each Google account has its own Ads Settings. If you have multiple accounts, you’ll need to set your preferences on each account. Bear in mind that browsing data from the websites and apps that partner with Google to show ads may be saved to the first account that you used to sign in to Google on your browser or device. Find out more

If you use Google on multiple devices and services 
Because people use devices and services made by many different manufacturers in combination with Google services, we can’t always detect that it’s you when you’re using them.

Here are some tips for making sure that your Ads Settings apply as broadly as possible:

Browsers on iOS

• Make sure that you’ve installed and are signed in to at least one Google iOS app (e.g. Google app).
• Make sure that you’re signed in to your Google Account in Safari. To check, open Safari and visit www.google.co.uk. If you see your information in the top right (e.g. your name, email or an image with the first letter of your name), you’re signed in to your account. If you use other browsers on iOS, you can also check that you’re signed in with the same instructions.

Browsers on ANDROID

• Make sure that you’re signed in to your Google Account on the main browser that you use. To check, visit www.google.co.ukon that browser. If you see your information in the top right (e.g. your name, email or an image with the first letter of your name), you’re signed in to your account.
• Make sure that you’re signed in to your Google Account in the Play Store. To check, open the Play Store app and click or tap the three-line menu. If you see your information at the top, you’re signed in to your account.
