Google Signals compiles for us multi-platform data reports on Google users that have enabled personalized advertising in their Google accounts.

If you have enabled personalized advertising in your Google account, Google will be able to prepare data models and reports on website habits, which show for instance on which device you first clicked on an advertisement and on which device any eventual purchase took place. These data models and reports are based on random samples and are pseudonymized to ensure anonymity, which means that we are unable to draw any conclusions as to the identities of the individual Google users.
