I might be in the minority here but I personally find personalized ads useful, and am far more annoyed by ads recommending products and services completely irrelevant to my interests and/or needs.

(The latter still account for the ads I see most of the time, unfortunately.)

Sure. As long as I don’t have to deliver (all) my private data to get those relevant ads.

ALL your private data sounds rather extreme. That could certainly mean a lot of things!

Some examples of what I'm fine with: if I visit a hardware store's online website and am then retargeted by their ads, or I visit a hardware magazine's website and am then targeted by hardware ads.

How so? Ad tech wants to eat as much of your data as possible. They’ll use everything they have to make inferences about things you want, things you believe, things you might believe later. I think you could go as far as saying they want ALL your data and then some..
