This is How to See What<br />

Google Knows About You<br />

Google knows much more about you than you probably<br />

realize, and it’s collecting more and more data every<br />

day. According to the Associated Press, Google already<br />

monitors your online shopping, but it now has a new tool<br />

to monitor how much people spend in physical stores<br />

after they have clicked on digital adverts.<br />

To be fair to them, Google does provide ways for users to<br />

limit tracking and control adverts. For example, last year,<br />

Google debuted the My Activity page, a dashboard that<br />

gives a snapshot of the data that Google has gathered<br />

from your online activities.<br />

This is available at myactivity.google.com.<br />

Things to Know about Google’s My Activity Page<br />

When you arrive at the My Activity page, you’ll see a<br />

timeline of your activity across Google products, which<br />

can include websites that you’ve searched and visited,<br />

as well as images and videos that you’ve viewed. Your<br />

current privacy settings will determine what exactly is<br />

being displayed on your timeline. <strong>ST</strong><br />
