Cookies, device or similar online identifiers (e.g. login-based identifiers, randomly assigned identifiers, network
based identifiers) together with other information (e.g. browser type and information, language, screen size, supported
technologies etc.) can be stored or read on your device to recognise it each time it connects to an app or to a website,
for one or several of the purposes presented here.
Advertising presented to you on this service can be based on limited data, such as the website or app you are using,
your non-precise location, your device type or which content you are (or have been) interacting with (for example, to
limit the number of times an ad is presented to you).
Information about your activity on this service (such as forms you submit, content you look at) can be stored and
combined with other information about you (for example, information from your previous activity on this service and
other websites or apps) or similar users. This is then used to build or improve a profile about you (that might include
possible interests and personal aspects). Your profile can be used (also later) to present advertising that appears more
relevant based on your possible interests by this and other entities.
If you read several articles about the best bike accessories to buy, this information could be used to create a profile
about your interest in bike accessories. Such a profile may be used or improved later on, on the same or a different
website or app to present you with advertising for a particular bike accessory brand. If you also look at a configurator
for a vehicle on a luxury car manufacturer website, this information could be combined with your interest in bikes to
refine your profile and make an assumption that you are interested in luxury cycling gear.
An apparel company wishes to promote its new line of high-end baby clothes. It gets in touch with an agency that has a
network of clients with high income customers (such as high-end supermarkets) and asks the agency to create profiles of
young parents or couples who can be assumed to be wealthy and to have a new child, so that these can later be used to
present advertising within partner apps based on those profiles.
