I am getting ads for products in my yahoo email that I searched on other sites. How does it get on my email?

I’d like to know how ads specific to Me (things I have definitely searched for recently but not on Yahoo), get on my personal Yahoo email after I sign in? I’m curious if anyone knows?
I’m not actually getting spam. Its advertisements, on the side of my email page.

  1. To basically answer this, some virus or aka spams or spybots attach themselves onto your cookies or computer. Than they find out your personal informations or if you enter your email on some websites, it could be leaked and spybot attachs onto your computer. I had that happen to my old Email address, it got like 250 or more by now filled with spam =.=
    Just better to get a New address or put those bad mails on spam list =.= dont know if this will help or not
