How do you turn them off. I mean, do you go through every Google product and dig for the settings? Or do you just mean you revisit the ad settings?

In your google account settings there should be a page called "Data And Privacy" that has loads of things to turn off or at least limit the amount of time before they say they delete it.

They keep changing where it is and how the pages are laid out in order to keep us on our toes. I think there may be a privacy center somewhere too. There used to be.

There is a central page to manage history across most all of google services.
