At Highly Strong, we use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. This disclosure explains how Google AdSense works, what types of information it collects, and how it may affect you as a visitor to our site.
What is Google AdSense?
Google AdSense is an advertising service provided by Google that allows publishers, like Highly Strong, to earn revenue by displaying targeted ads on their websites. These ads may be based on the content of our site or tailored to you based on your previous interactions with Google services and other websites.
How Does Google AdSense Work?
1. Ad Personalization

2. Third-Party Vendors
Google and its advertising partners may also use cookies to track your online activity across multiple websites. These third-party vendors may serve ads on our site based on your previous visits to our site or other sites across the internet.
3. Types of Ads
The ads displayed on our website may include text, images, videos, or interactive media. The content of these ads is determined by Google and its partners, not by Highly Strong.
