I have a public service announcement for you. Google saves years of information on purchases you’ve made, even outside Google, and pulls this information from Gmail. It’s complicated to delete this private information, and options to turn it off are hidden in privacy settings. But don’t worry, Google says it values your privacy and won’t use this information to sell you ads. Umm…. ok. | Big shout to DuckDuckGo!
