How to do it

Open Settings, search for Google, tap Ads, or visit myadcenter.google.com, and turn off personalised ads.

Menu names may differ by device and version.

What you lose

You will still see advertisements across Google products, but they will not be tailored to your interests.

What is collected

Account profile data, app purchase history, content interactions, demographic estimates.

The system matches promotional messages to a user's inferred interests and past commercial activity.

Retention is not stated here. The sensitivity rating is this site's own estimate.
