It says to go to my Google account? I don’t have a Google account. Does that mean they aren’t tracking me?

No, it means they can only track you by means of the IP address your ISP assigns to your computer. It would take legal action to get your name from the ISP, but that wouldn’t stop Google from, for example, targeting you with ads that reflect the browsing history from that PC. So if Junior Googles swimsuit models, maybe the next time Mom tries to download a recipe, she’ll get a bikini ad alongside.

If you use GMAIL for your email then you have an account - A lot of people don’t know that!
