Ads based on my interests
While logged in to the YouTube mobile app, anonymous YouTube account information, such as age range, gender and YouTube video interactions, may be used to serve you relevant ads on YouTube. You can manage your logged in YouTube ads settings by logging in to Google Ads Settings.
Whether you are logged in or not, the ads you see may be based on the content of the videos you’ve viewed. Depending on settings you’ve chosen in the Google Ads Settings for Apps, these additional factors may determine which ads you see:
- Types of videos you’ve viewed
- The apps on your device
- The websites you visit and your use of apps
- Anonymous identifiers associated with your mobile device
- Previous interactions with Google’s ads or advertising services
- Your geographic location
Off the YouTube mobile app, Google may also use your anonymous account information, such as age range, gender and YouTube video interactions to tailor content and ads. You can manage settings for Ads by Google in the YouTube app and in these other mobile apps with the Google Ads Settings for Apps.
