When you use Google, you are making a deal. You get to use services like Gmail, search, YouTube, and Google Maps ... for free.
In exchange, you agree to share information about yourself that Google can share with advertisers so their ads are more effective.
Google also watches you as you scamper around the internet, deducing your interests from your internet searches / what do you search for? click on? / from your use of Google's other services and from other websites you visit.
By visiting a hard-to-find page called Web & App Activity, You can see what Google is watching.
By visiting a site called Ads Settings, You can see what Google thinks it knows about you, and you can change what it's telling advertisers about you.
To delete all of your Web and App Activity in one shot, go to the main Web and App Activity page, and click on the three dots at the top corner of the page. Then click on "Delete options," then on "Advanced" and then on "All time."

Google also keeps a recording of voice and audio activity used for voice searches and commands. But only if a user has opted in to use the feature, as it is turned off by default.
Anytime you say "OK Google" or touch the microphone icon, Google will save your recording. You can listen to all of your old commands or voice searches by selecting Manage Activity .
