I get these ads in some of the most unrelated sites imaginable...and I like it! ( although I can already get this info in my daily Net54 fix). Much better than the sponsored "You Won't Believe What They Look Like Today!" crapola. Hopefully this will be the ad-wave of the future - I could learn to live with it.

Thoughts (even sarcasm and all that) welcome.
Paul you get all those advertisements because you are such an important person in the hobby. I know I have bought many awesome cards from you including my favorite set. So if all else fails you are important to this guy.

For the last several years I have done almost all my hobby biz through our BST. When I begin to get targeted ads for Net54, THEN I will be Mr. Bigshot for sure.,,,and Leon (Hi Leon) will thank me handsomely.

They are called cookies and are based upon your browsing history.
Similar to a grocery card where they send you coupons based upon what you buy or what would compliment what you buy.
Watching, always watching.

Unless I am missing something, they are a little more than just Cookies.

Most times, after I visit a site, I will clear my browsing history/data plus I'll do a Ccleaner run.
Doing both things clears all history.

With these Heritage ads, which I get on Facebook as well, there is something else going on, like a 3rd party or whatever who has purchased this browsing history.
How did they get my FB info, or having it popup when I browse CBC news and others?

Browsing History and Cookies are two different things: History is just the website URL (address) that gets you to the website only. Cookies are meant to "enhance" that experience by storing your browsing habits and trends - as well as other things such as: (singular example) You use your Favorites (or History) section to get to Net54. Previously, you have checked the "remember password" box. In this case it is the cookie (not your history) and website agreeing "We be cool". No manual typing password. When you clear your history you are not clearing your cookies. There is usually a separate option for that. If you Clear All Cookies you will hence need to then type your password for every site you have previously checked the "remember password" option.

(Unless you actually DO clear all your cookies upon cleanup. Then forget everything I just said )
