Ever had a conversation about something… and then suddenly started seeing ads about it?
It can feel creepy. 😳
But your phone doesn’t necessarily need to be literally listening to your conversations for advertisers to make surprisingly accurate guesses about what you’re interested in.
Apps, websites, cookies, location data, searches, purchases, device information, and online activity can all contribute to a detailed advertising profile.
The good news?
You can reduce how much information you share.
