5. Google Ads API Integration
Dr Ryan McConnell uses a private Google Ads API integration to access and analyse advertising data from Google Ads accounts under his control.
The integration uses Google’s OAuth 2.0 authorisation framework to obtain authorised access to Google Ads information.
The integration is intended exclusively for internal advertising analysis, campaign monitoring, reporting and optimisation.

Access is limited to the permissions granted through Google’s authorisation process and can be revoked through the relevant Google account settings.

Google Ads information is not sold or made available to unrelated advertisers.
