This definitely seems to be US-based at the moment. The relevant page doesn’t exist on the Australian site, but if I log into the Amazon US site, it is there (albeit blank in my case, which is interesting).
It’s in the UK version. On iPhone: You --> Account (along the top) --> Your Shopping preferences (under Personalization) --> About You (at the bottom).
I can‘t find any of that in the German/EU version. Instead I can select interests if I want to. I‘m going to assume they don‘t have any of that heavy profiling here.
Scroll down to Account Settings --> Shopping Preferences
It was pretty accurate about my interests which I saw no problem with (“prefers reliable open source ecosystems”), but took issue with it guessing the size of my family, so I updated it to say that I live in an underground bunker with 10 others in a polycule.
I also updated my halloween decoration preferences to suggest I fight crime at night
Can’t wait to see what my next searches are like 👀
There’s no “account settings” in the “your account” page. There’s no “see all”, and there’s also no “shopping preferences”. I assume you’re being served a different page to me.
It says that I have an 11-year old child. Unless you count household pets, there ain’t no such thing.
Also, it knows about two out of eight RAM sticks that I bought from Ebay. It mentions other AI assistants learned about me, and asked if I wanted to share. I think assistants from other websites are already sharing.
…ah. I used someone else’s PC and account to ask Google questions about my computer build. My personal Amazon account is under the Prime account of that person.

I live in the UK and used the UK web version, it has nothing. Maybe because I have almost entirely stopped using Amazon?
The UK web version definitely doesn’t have any such link for me.

that one worked thanks :)
I found it on the UK web version but I had to use the browser’s search function to find it on the page.
It had nothing, which I’m hoping because I’ve previously opted out of analytics?
I used the search (the ctrl-f search) and found nothing
Either they’re A/B testing, or you’re on the wrong page
Now we know how you like it
For me, it was directly under account, there was an about you tab a few options below shopping preferences.
