ConsentLegitimate interest Purposes Store and/or access information on a device Off 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. Most purposes explained in this notice rely on the storage or accessing of information from your device when you use an app or visit a website. For example, a vendor or publisher might need to store a cookie on your device during your first visit on a website, to be able to recognise your device during your next visits (by accessing this cookie each time). Vendors178 vendor(s) * 6sense * A.Mob * ADventori * Aarki * AcuityAds * AdElement Media Solutions * AdGear * AdKernel * AdSpirit AdServer * AdTheorent 1-10 / 178 Use limited data to select advertising Off 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). A car manufacturer wants to promote its electric vehicles to environmentally conscious users living in the city after office hours. The advertising is presented on a page with related content (such as an article on climate change actions) after 6:30 p.m. to users whose non-precise location suggests that they are in an urban zone. A large producer of watercolour paints wants to carry out an online advertising campaign for its latest watercolour range, diversifying its audience to reach as many amateur and professional artists as possible and avoiding showing the ad next to mismatched content (for instance, articles about how to paint your house). The number of times that the ad has been presented to you is detected and limited, to avoid presenting it too often. Vendors43 vendor(s) * 6sense * AcuityAds * AdGear * AdKernel * Adform * Advanced store * Amazon Ad Server * Appier * AudienceProject * Bannernow 1-10 / 43 Create profiles for personalised advertising Off 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.

An online retailer wants to advertise a limited sale on running shoes. It wants to target advertising to users who previously looked at running shoes on its mobile app. Tracking technologies might be used to recognise that you have previously used the mobile app to consult running shoes, in order to present you with the corresponding advertisement on the app. A profile created for personalised advertising in relation to a person having searched for bike accessories on a website can be used to present the relevant advertisement for bike accessories on a mobile app of another organisation. Vendors127 vendor(s) * 6sense * A.Mob * ADventori * Aarki * AcuityAds * AdElement Media Solutions * AdGear * AdKernel * AdSpirit AdServer * AdTheorent 1-10 / 127 Measure advertising performance Off Information regarding which advertising is presented to you and how you interact with it can be used to determine how well an advert has worked for you or other users and whether the goals of the advertising were reached. For instance, whether you saw an ad, whether you clicked on it, whether it led you to buy a product or visit a website, etc. This is very helpful to understand the relevance of advertising campaigns. You have clicked on an advertisement about a “black Friday” discount by an online shop on the website of a publisher and purchased a product. Your click will be linked to this purchase. Your interaction and that of other users will be measured to know how many clicks on the ad led to a purchase. You are one of very few to have clicked on an advertisement about an “international appreciation day” discount by an online gift shop within the app of a publisher. The publisher wants to have reports to understand how often a specific ad placement within the app, and notably the “international appreciation day” ad, has been viewed or clicked by you and other users, in order to help the publisher and its partners (such as agencies) optimise ad placements. Vendors77 vendor(s) * 6sense * Aarki * AcuityAds * AdGear * AdKernel * Adelaide * Adform * Adikteev * Adloox * Adnami 1-10 / 77 Understand audiences through statistics or combinations of data from different sources Off 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). The owner of an online bookstore wants commercial reporting showing the proportion of visitors who consulted and left its site without buying, or consulted and bought the last celebrity autobiography of the month, as well as the average age and the male/female distribution of each category. Data relating to your navigation on its site and to your personal characteristics is then used and combined with other such data to produce these statistics. An advertiser wants to better understand the type of audience interacting with its adverts. It calls upon a research institute to compare the characteristics of users who interacted with the ad with typical attributes of users of similar platforms, across different devices. This comparison reveals to the advertiser that its ad audience is mainly accessing the adverts through mobile devices and is likely in the 45-60 age range.

A technology platform working with a social media provider notices a growth in mobile app users, and sees based on their profiles that many of them are connecting through mobile connections. It uses a new technology to deliver ads that are formatted for mobile devices and that are low-bandwidth, to improve their performance. An advertiser is looking for a way to display ads on a new type of consumer device. It collects information regarding the way users interact with this new kind of device to determine whether it can build a new mechanism for displaying advertising on this type of device.

WHAT KIND OF CRIER ARE YOU? * Share full article * * * 649 By Christina Caron Illustrations by Dominic Kesterton Nov. 14, 2024 Have you ever wondered why your spouse gets weepy over a TV commercial that leaves you dry-eyed? Or why you burst into tears at funerals while others stay stoic? WHY HUMANS CRY We’re the only species that sheds emotional tears, but much about them remains an enigma. We partnered with Ad Vingerhoets, one of the world’s top experts on tears, to create a quiz that helps people understand the types of situations that are most likely to make them cry. Below you’ll find hypothetical questions about situations that might trigger tears. The quiz is not meant to be diagnostic. Rather, answering these questions may offer insights into what drives our tendency to get teary-eyed. Your tears might stem primarily from compassion, societal conflict, close attachments to those around you, sentimental feelings, or when your sense of right and wrong is tested. Or you may not be a crier at all. Let’s dive right into this salty puddle! 1 OF 12 Your sister is marrying the partner of her dreams. Do you get teary-eyed? Yes, they’re just so perfect for each other! No, but seeing her happy makes me happy. Dominic Kesterton 2 OF 12 You welcome your first child into the world. Getting weepy? Yes, I’ve never felt this kind of bond before. No, but let’s count some fingers and toes! 3 OF 12 Your boss constantly undermines a hardworking colleague. Does it make you tear up? Yes, our team would be nothing without her! No, but it’s frustrating. I should talk to the boss. Dominic Kesterton 4 OF 12 Movie characters unite to rescue a pal in danger. Do the tears start to flow? Yes, everyone should have such loyal friends! No, the action sequences are top-notch though. 5 OF 12 Your daughter is wailing because she fell and scraped her knee. Are you crying along with her? Yes, I can’t stand to see her in pain. No. Let’s just get the first aid kit. Dominic Kesterton 6 OF 12 Your home team piles onto the field after clinching the Super Bowl! Need a tissue? Yes, I’ve just got some dust in my eye. No, I knew they had it in them. 7 OF 12 The young star of a community theater musical gets a standing ovation. Are you shedding tears? Yes, she’s a prodigy! No, but strong voice on that kid. Dominic Kesterton 8 OF 12 Your beloved grandmother has passed away. Does the news make you weepy? Yes, I wish she were here to dry my tears. No. I’ll miss her so much, but I knew this day would come. 9 OF 12 A shy toddler is befriended by little ones at the park. Welling up? Yes, they’re so sweet and pure! No. But good job, kids! Dominic Kesterton 10 OF 12 Your family clashes over politics at Thanksgiving dinner. Cue the waterworks? Yes, why can’t we all get along! No, but how ’bout them Giants? 11 OF 12 Your neighbor has only months to live. Do you break down when he tells you? Yes, I can only imagine how frightened he is. No, but I’ll do anything I can to help. Dominic Kesterton 12 OF 12 Your best friend’s longtime partner cheated. Do you cry in solidarity? Yes, we'll shed some tears together over drinks. No, that snake doesn’t deserve my friend, anyway. WHY HUMANS CRY We’re the only species that sheds emotional tears, but much about them remains an enigma. By Dana G. Smith and Dominic Kesterton Nov. 14, 2024 Edited by Melonyce McAfee. Produced by Deanna Donegan, Hang Do Thi Duc, Claire Merchlinsky, Meredith Rizzo and Sarah Williamson.
