See that little triangle logo in the top right of the ad, that's an "Ad Choices" logo. This usually means that the ad is using behavioral targeting. This could mean that you've visited a similar site or it could just mean that they're targeting males aged 30-45. You can click on the logo and it will tell you a bit more about it and some times allow you to stop it.
