Google keeps a running list of the things you buy. You can't turn it off, but here's how to stop Google from using your shopping history.
From Google.com, click on the "Settings" button in the lower right corner.
Then choose "Search Settings."
Under "Private results," check the "Do not use private results" option.
This won't delete the information Google has already stored, or even stop Google from tracking your future purchases. But it will prevent the company from using private information like purchase history in search results and other services moving forward.
The company also says its looking into ways to further simplify its settings page.
