As google has updated its TOS (Terms of Service), starting from 11 Oct, there are few things which are new and important, Google has informed this through a blog post .

But the part of the TOS about which we are interested, is the fact that our profile name and photo will be shown in Google Ads & reviews
only if:

1. we do +1’ing, commenting or following/ review or rating any brand
2. People with whom we have shared the content can only see our profile name and photo in Ads.
3. we are above 18

Google state this logic:

"Feedback from people you know can save you time and improve results for you and your friends across all Google services, including Search, Maps, Play and in advertising. For example, your friends might see that you rated an album 4 stars on the band’s Google Play page. And the +1 you gave your favorite local bakery could be included in an ad that the bakery runs through Google. We call these recommendations shared endorsements"

Turning off this Feature:

via the Shared Endorsements setting we can turn off this feature.
