Facebook ads work best for retargeting. If someone has viewed your site and shown interest in your product but has not converted.

Don't many customers view this as being creepy? Does it cause more brand damage than the sales are worth?
I don't think retargeting is particularly creepy.

What is creepy is that when my in-laws were visiting for the first time I had a American Express ad with Tina Fey congratulating me on meeting my in laws for the first time.

the ad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEX5e-_YxxA

That would put me off both the advertiser and the platform (Facebook? Google?) for life.
