Targeted ads

xabi · 2014-10-29 19:07:09

I was looking at a particular electronic product on my work PC today and now on my phone I'm seeing ads for that very product. I have noticed this recently with other topics, it seems wherever I go I'm getting ads targeted at what I'm looking for. I use gmail on most devices, is that where it's comming from?

Its Re targeting -clear your cookies and that particular group should dissappear. Its an Adwords facility amongst others. It will keep happening so you know what to do in future
