To follow and record your every digital move. Look up "hat" and before you can blink, you will have a couple "hat ads"!

No, I do not.  However, I clear my history daily.

Does that clear the "cookies"???  Not very tech savvy here.

I try not to. Some can let you just say no and move on into the site. Others you have to take a few steps which I sometimes do.

But some sites I have accepted, just to get in, as it wasn't that obvious how to deny them. So, mostly I try not to wherever possible, and occasionally I do accept.

Also, sometimes if I can't deny and I don't want to enter the site that bad, I'll just leave it.

@hckynutjohn 

Thank you for the info.  I am not computer savvy and whenever I saw that question I always checked "no." 

 

But usually when I do just generally search for something I will get alot of ads for that item and I find that very annoying.

 

Thanks again for your reply.
