Creating profiles for personalized advertising: Information about your activity on a Customer’s app (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 a Customer’s app 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. | |

For instance, whether you saw an ad, whether you clicked on it, whether it led you to buy a product or download an app, etc. This is very helpful to understand the relevance of advertising campaigns. | |
Understanding audiences through statistics or combinations of data from different sources: Reports can be generated based on the combination of data sets (like user profiles, statistics, market research, analytics data) regarding your interactions and those of other users with advertising or (non-advertising) content to identify common characteristics (for instance, to determine which target audiences are more receptive to an ad campaign or to certain contents). | |

Link different devices: In support of the purposes explained in this notice, your device might be considered as likely linked to other devices that belong to you or your household (for instance because you are logged in to the same service on both your phone and your computer, or because you may use the same Internet connection on both devices);

Our Privacy Principles for the use of data about Targeted End Users
Adbozor’s systems aggregate events/data at granularities that cover many users, as opposed to a specific user, unless the user consents.
Adbozor does not tie together events/data across apps in a user-specific way, without the user’s consent.
Instead, Adbozor only ties events/data from a given specific user within the context of a given app.
This allows Adbozor to understand the conversion rates from one event to another within an app, but not track the activities of a user across different apps.
Adbozor does not record or store personal information that the user cannot easily revoke, such as email address, physical address, photographs or phone number to personalize our advertising. Adbozor relies upon device Ids and user IDs to uniquely identify a user, and Adbozor solely relies upon the user’s consent in allowing Adbozor to access this information.
Adbozor does not export per-user data outside of Adbozor, except for validation purposes to a company that already has access to that data
