We are continuously working to help you understand how advertising on our platforms works – including what data is used to show you ads and who is paying for the ads you see.
Why this ad
See what data we use to show ads
The “Why this ad” feature helps you understand why you are seeing a given ad. For example, you may discover you are seeing a camera ad because you’ve searched for cameras, visited photography websites, or clicked on ads for cameras before.
Advertiser identity verification
Learn about the advertisers behind the ads you see
To provide you with more information about who is advertising to you, we are working to verify the identity of the advertisers on our platforms. As part of this initiative, advertisers are required to complete a verification programme in order to buy ads from Google, and you will see ad disclosures that list the name and country of the advertiser.
