    Analyzes your site to determine what type of ads to display.

    This AdSense probe (kind of bot) reads the pages where you put AdSense ads. After the page has been read, Google AdSense knows the contents of the page: this includes the number of ads, the existence of other ads, the location of the ads in the page, the words used in the page,...

    it will keep on visiting your site to check if there are changes to your site so it could also update the ads it is serving to your site.
