It's Adware, may as well be a virus.

The free Malwarebytes may take care of it...

See if you have unknown Profiles.

To remove a configuration profile in macOS:

From the Apple menu, select System Preferences....
From the View menu in System Preferences, select Profiles.Note:
Profiles won't be visible until you have at least one profile installed.
Select the profile you want to remove, and then press the - (minus) button. Click Remove to remove the profile.
