I always “ask app not to track”, yet it appears that they still do. I looked at an ad when I was reading an article online yesterday. Since then, ads for the same product have come up on every app I’ve used on three different devices (iPhone and two iPads). It’s a little creepy.

Some sites ignore requests not to track. And any site that you log in can share your browsing history on that site both internally and to “partners”. You can log in to the site, then go to the site’s cookie management (by law thy must have it, but many make it hard to find*) and turn off all cookies but strictly necessary ones.
*Meta, I’m talking about you.
Even with reduced tracking, you’ll still find ads follow you across the internet.
You are not using chrome are you, or signed into a Google account when making searches in Safari?
Thank you. It just seemed odd that every ad was for that product. I will try to find the cookie management.
I do not use chrome, but one of my emails is Gmail.
Thank you all for replying.
