You are attributing Cookies set by Google Ads on the websites you visit to your Apple iPad and blaming Apple for the way that the way that Google has made the Web Advertising work to benefit GOOGLE!
So, I apologize. Your post still was rife with red flags. . . and you were blaming your Apple iPad for something that happens on ANY device that is on the Internet. Don't blame the device and say that it is at fault for something you don't understand and doing it deliberately. If is not tracking you. AND you are wrong about not having GOOGLE on your devices. Google is ubiquitous if you are on the Internet. Google is the invader and the one who is "squealing" about what websites you visit. . . but NOT about your searches. It is picking up the ads on those sites.
Nuc, the only way to avoid this is to block cookies, browse with an "adblocker" plug-in, browse through a proxy server, or clear cookies and history after every website. Google's business model is to learn everything it can about you and sell that information to third parties, or sell you something for their advertisers. They even mine your emails that go through them.
Again, I apologize for mistaking you for a troll.
If you’re looking to block ad sites and other kinds of sites that are irritating ... I use the following ...

I don’t know what iOS you have, but this app takes iOS 6.0 and above. Also, it works with WiFi but not with cellular.
Accepted, forgiven, and thanks for the tip. Does Google work in background even when not selected? Wouldn’t doubt it. The ad issue started following one of the iOS updates. Not certain which one but I think it was in one in the seven series of updates as I recall. Currently running iOS 8.3(12F69). Gotta go FReeper, smoke detector chirping and momma is irritated.
I can lend him my ipad for a few months before I stomp it ti buts. I have a few ipads so can spare one. How come my Apple watch has not arrived yet?
