Advertising Technology:
Our online banner heat mapping technology may collect data related to the banner ads we run in order to assist advertisers with mouse over engagement related to said ad. This data may be used to determine the effectiveness of the ad, or its location within publisher inventory made accessible to us through the online banner eco-system.
We may collect the following categories of information for varying purposes as outlined below:
Device and browser information: This is technical information about the device or browser you use to access Publisher websites. For example, your device’s IP address or cookie string data.
Ad data: This is data about the online ads we serve and your engagement with said ads. It includes things like how many times an ad has been served to you, what page the ad appeared on, and where and whether you clicked on the ad, or otherwise interacted with the ad.

We use this data to improve and enhance the delivery of banner ads that are more likely to engage you based on past performance. This data combined with additional data provided by our Advertising Partners assists with optimizing the performance of ads on publisher websites in association with data related to you and your engagement with the ad.
