PRIVACY POLICY

Last Updated: June 28, 2023


INTRODUCTION

Welcome to MediaMath’s Privacy Policy (“Policy”). In this Policy, we use the
terms “MediaMath“, “our“, “us” and “we” to refer to MediaMath, Inc. and our
affiliates.

MediaMath is committed to protecting the privacy of individuals (“users”, “you“,
“your“) when we process data about you via our proprietary “Future Proofed
Platform”™ (the “Platform“), when you visit our website at www.mediamath.com
(the “Website“) and when we engage in marketing activities based on contact
information you provide to MediaMath through other means described in this
Policy.

This Policy is provided in a layered format, so you can click through to the
specific sections that may interest you.


1. IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND WHO WE ARE

Purposes of this Policy

This Policy sets out how MediaMath collects and processes personal data,
personal information or the equivalent terminology in your jurisdiction
(“personal data” or “personal information“) about you via the Platform, when you
visit the Website, and when we engage in marketing activities based on contact
information you provide to MediaMath through other means described in this
Policy. It also sets out how we use personal data, the steps we take to protect
it, the parties we disclose it to, and the choices and rights that you have
regarding personal data we process about you. The date of the last update can be
found at the top of the Policy, and this Policy describes how we have handled
personal data in the twelve months prior to the date indicated.

You should read this Policy carefully so that you are fully aware of how and why
we are using your personal data.

Who we are

MediaMath is a global provider of digital advertising media and data management
technology. We provide a technology platform and services, which help our
advertiser clients (including agencies of such advertisers) do a more effective
job of reaching their desired audiences. Our Platform has several aspects. The
demand-side aspect enables our advertiser clients to purchase advertising space
(or “inventory“) from publishers (e.g. websites that display ads) in an
automated fashion. This inventory includes display, video, audio, social,
native, digital out-of-home (e.g., billboards or ads you may see in taxis or
buses) and mobile ads. The data management aspect of our Platform provides our
advertiser clients with tools to onboard, segment, activate, and understand the
data they upload to the Platform.

When MediaMath processes your personal data as a controller in the context of
operating the Platform, the Website and our marketing activities, the controller
of your personal data is MediaMath, Inc., MediaMath GmbH, MediaMath UK Limited
and/or MediaMath Publicidade Digital Ltda depending on which MediaMath entity
has contracted with the advertiser client.

MediaMath is an active member of the industry associations that govern user
privacy in the context of digital advertising. As of the last update of this
Policy, MediaMath is an active member in and complies with various industry
frameworks, including: the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI“) and its NAI
Code of Conduct; the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA“) and its
“Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising”; Digital
Advertising Alliance of Canada (“DAAC“); the European Interactive DAA (“EDAA“);
the Interactive Advertising Bureau in the US, Europe and various countries
around the world (“IAB“); including the IAB Europe Transparency & Consent
Framework as Vendor ID 79 and its Specifications and Policies; and the
Association of National Advertisers (“ANA“).

        

Targeted Advertising

There are many terms such as interest-based, targeted, personalized, targeted
and behavioral, and cross context behavioral advertising, which are all terms
either defined by privacy laws in applicable jurisdictions or by self-regulatory
bodies and each used to describe advertising which is intended for individuals,
groups of individuals, or categories of individuals. In this Policy, MediaMath
refer to such advertising as “targeted” in that it is targeted to the types of
products or services individuals may be interested in. In this Policy we
describe how you can opt out of targeted advertising delivered via our Platform.
The display of advertising which is not specifically relevant to individuals or
group of individuals, is referred to as “basic” advertising and also as
contextual advertising. MediaMath facilitates both the display of “targeted”
advertising and “basic” or “contextual” advertising.

Personal data pertaining to children

MediaMath’s products and services are not designed to deliver targeted ads to
children. The definition of “child” varies by location. We do not knowingly
collect personal data from or about children under age 16 or any higher age
where not permitted to do so under applicable law. To the extent permitted by
applicable legislation, we decline any responsibility regarding any activities
that may be conducted by children without the permission of their parents or
legal guardians. If we are made aware that we may have received personal data
from or about a child in respect of whom we are not permitted to process
personal data under applicable law, we will use reasonable efforts to
investigate and remove that data from our records as soon as practicable. If you
have a reason to believe that we might have any information from or about a
child under the permitted age in the relevant location, please contact us at
privacy@mediamath.com.

Links, other websites and other third parties

This Policy relates solely to the personal data we collect and process about you
in relation to our Platform, our Website, and other interactions you may have
with MediaMath that are described in this Policy. MediaMath’s Website contains
links to other sites, and the ads delivered by the Platform may run on a variety
of other sites. Clicking on those links, accessing other sites, or enabling
those connections may allow third parties to collect or share data about you.
MediaMath does not control these third-party sites and is not responsible for
the privacy practices of such sites. You should refer to the privacy statements
of such third-party sites to find out how they collect and use your personal
data. Also, as explained below in Section 5, third parties may process personal
data from you when you visit the Website. Such processing is governed by the
privacy statements of such third parties.


2. THE PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT VIA THE PLATFORM

MediaMath collects certain personal data while delivering ads via the Platform.
We do not intentionally collect directly identifiable data such as your name,
home address, phone number, or any government identifiers such as your Social
Security Number unless you provide such personal data in connection with any
request that you make directly to MediaMath. MediaMath identifies you by means
of personal data related to your computer or device using cookies and other
similar technologies, as explained below.

We assign a unique identifier called a “MediaMath ID” to your browser, to your
devices (such as your mobile device, connected television, or over-the-top
television devices (“OTT TV Device“)), or to other screens through which we
serve an ad to you on behalf of our advertiser clients. We also assign a
MediaMath ID when you access an advertiser client’s digital properties such as
their websites, emails, or apps (“Digital Properties“). The MediaMath ID enables
the Platform to determine within a reasonable level of confidence that a browser
or device is the same one with which the Platform has previously interacted. In
some cases, based on data we receive from our advertiser clients or data
partners (e.g. audience partners from whom we receive Third Party Segment Data
as defined below), we infer within a reasonable probability that another browser
or device should be associated with the same MediaMath ID. Where we are able to
associate more than one browser or device with the same MediaMath ID, we use
this information on behalf of our advertiser clients to deliver targeted ads to
you across multiple browsers or devices (known as “Cross-Device Advertising“).

The MediaMath ID can be a cookie ID (a unique ID assigned randomly by MediaMath
to an unrecognized browser), a mobile advertising ID (a unique ID assigned by
the mobile operating system, e.g., Apple ID for Advertising or Android
Advertising ID), or an OTT TV Device Identifier for Advertising (a unique ID
assigned by an OTT TV provider, e.g., Roku ID for Advertising).

Your MediaMath ID is personal data and is associated with other categories of
personal data that we collect about you including the following:

 * Bid Request Data and Impression Data: MediaMath receives personal data about
   you when we have the opportunity to show you an ad on Digital Properties,
   (“Bid Request Data“). We collect additional data when we deliver an ad on
   behalf of our advertiser clients (“Impression Data“). Bid Request Data
   includes your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, imprecise location (e.g.,
   country, region, postal or zip code), browser type (e.g., Chrome or Internet
   Explorer); operating system (e.g., Mac OS or Windows); browser language
   (e.g., English or Spanish); and Internet Service Provider. It also may
   include IDs that our partners assign to your browser or device, including
   Google advertising identifiers associated with your browser or device and
   used by MediaMath as part of its syncing processes. See Google’s Privacy
   Policy to learn more about its use of the personal data which it receives
   from partner sites and your ability to control the information which Google
   collects on these sites. Impression Data includes elements from (and derived
   from) Bid Request Data, campaign information and bidding information (e.g.,
   site category, number of pages browsed, click event, Application ID, video
   metrics, page URL, connected device ID, timestamp and connection speed). The
   sources of Bid Request Data and Impression Data are your browser or device
   and media supply sources, such as publishers (i.e. organizations who operate
   Digital Properties) and exchanges or supply-side platforms (i.e.
   organizations who display ads on publishers’ Digital Properties).
 * Pixel Data and Other Client Data: MediaMath advertiser clients import
   personal data to the Platform regarding your interactions with them via their
   Digital Properties. This data falls into two main categories: Pixel Data and
   Other Client Data.
   * Pixel Data is collected by the use of MediaMath and/or third party pixels
     (described below). Pixel Data includes the time you visited the site, the
     page URL, your IP address, your browser type (e.g., Chrome or Internet
     Explorer), the operating system (e.g., Mac OS or Windows), the type of
     device you used (e.g. laptop or desktop), and data regarding your
     activities on the Digital Properties. For example, if you are shopping on
     an advertiser client’s website for a product, and you place a product in
     your online shopping cart, or make an online purchase, the advertiser
     client can import that data to the Platform . MediaMath uses this personal
     data later to help the advertiser client show you an ad on a different
     website or app. MediaMath advertiser clients may use the Platform to
     collect personal data in a form that does not reveal your direct identity,
     such as “hashed” email addresses that cannot be read in their directly
     identifiable form (i.e. each email address is converted to a code that is
     unique to that email address).
   * Other Client Data is personal data that advertiser clients obtain outside
     of the Platform and import into the Platform. This includes “Segments” that
     advertiser clients create or obtain independently from third-party sources.
     A Segment is a grouping of individuals who share one or more attributes
     (e.g., “car enthusiast”). Individuals are identified in these Segments by
     online identifiers and not by names or anything that reveals their names.
     Other Client Data also includes personal data that advertiser clients
     collect or independently obtain offline, such as purchases made in the
     advertiser client’s store. Before advertiser clients transmit this offline
     data to MediaMath, names and other directly identifying information are
     removed and replaced with a MediaMath ID.
 * Third-Party Segment Data and Other Third-Party Data: Third Party Segment Data
   is personal data we receive from third party audience partners who create and
   provide us with Segments for us and our advertiser clients to use for
   advertising purposes. These Third- Party Segments are similar to the Segments
   described above. Other Third Party Data we receive includes personal data
   from third-party partners that allows them and/or us to associate or match
   the MediaMath ID with those partners’ identifiers (through a process called
   “Cookie Syncing”), personal data that associates your different devices with
   each other, and personal data regarding video content that you view on
   television or through OTT TV Device.
 * Identity Codes: We may use an online identification code, generated by one of
   our first party identity partners, for the purpose of delivering an ad to
   your device. This code does not contain any of your identifiable personal
   data and cannot be used to re-identify you. We use this code to enable our
   delivery and management of targeted advertising throughout your online
   experience (e.g. web, email, connected devices, and in-app, etc), as well as
   for data linking and the measurement of ad performance. You have the right to
   express a choice regarding the use of your data for these purposes. For more
   information about our identity partner LiveRamp and to opt out of the use of
   your data used for identity code known as RampID,
   visit https://liveramp.com/opt_out/ . To opt out of the use of your data used
   for identity code known as UID2.0, please visit
   https://transparentadvertising.org/
 * Special or Sensitive Categories of Personal Data: We do not knowingly collect
   any special categories of personal data about individuals in the EEA, the UK,
   or applicable US States of California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut and
   Utah (“Applicable US States”) including: personal data revealing your racial
   or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or
   trade union membership; personal data concerning your mental or physical
   health condition or diagnosis, sex life, or sexual orientation; processing of
   genetic or biometric data; citizenship or immigration status and precise
   geolocation data or contents of mail, email or text messages, unless
   MediaMath is the intended recipient. MediaMath also does not knowingly
   collect any data about other sensitive categories such as personal data about
   financial account numbers, insurance plan numbers, and criminal convictions
   or offenses.

Where NOT considered sensitive in accordance with applicable law outside the
EEA, the UK, and Applicable US States we use personal data to create Segments
for our clients to use in the following ways:

 * Our advertiser clients may use health-related Segments about non-sensitive
   conditions such as an inferred interest in health and wellness or cough
   medicine and allergy medications. Click here for a list of the standard
   health-related Segments and a sample of custom health segments provided for
   use by clients in our Platform.
 * Our advertiser clients may use Segments based on political information or
   interests. Click here for a list of the standard political interest Segments
   and a sample of custom political Segments provided for use by advertiser
   clients in our Platform.

When creating Segments MediaMath does not knowingly process personal data that
would be considered sensitive under applicable law (for example, we do not
create Segments of users based on personal data considered to be sensitive under
applicable laws, such as personal data revealing your racial or ethnic origin,
political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union
membership, personal data concerning your mental or physical health, sex life or
sexual orientation, or genetic or biometric data, citizenship or immigration
status and precise geolocation data). MediaMath may process Segments based on
demographic information such as race, gender and income range where such is
information is not considered sensitive pursuant to applicable law. We take
steps designed to ensure that this is done in compliance with applicable laws
and self-regulatory guidelines, including through our contracts and policies
with our advertiser clients and partners. Our advertiser clients are responsible
for this processing, and you should direct any queries you have about this use
of Segments to them.

Categories of information collected pursuant to the California Consumer Privacy
Act (CCPA): For the purposes of the CCPA, the above-described personal
information collected can be classified as follows:

 * Identifiers (such as an online identifier or an Internet Protocol (IP)
   address);
 * Internet or other electronic network activity information (such as the
   browsing history, search history, and information regarding to interaction
   with the Website or with advertiser clients’ Digital Properties);
 * Geolocation data inferences (excluding precise geolocation data);
 * contents of mail, email or text messages, solely where MediaMath is the
   intended recipient

Categories of information collected pursuant to the Virginia, Colorado,
Connecticut and Utah applicable State Privacy Laws: For the purposes of the
applicable State Privacy Laws, the above-described personal information
collected can be classified as follows:

 * Identifiers (such as an online identifier or an Internet Protocol (IP)
   address);
 * Internet or other electronic network activity information (such as the
   browsing history, search history, and information regarding to interaction
   with the Website or with advertiser clients’ Digital Properties);
 * Geolocation data inferences (excluding precise geolocation data).


3. HOW WE COLLECT PERSONAL DATA INTO THE PLATFORM

We use various technologies to collect your personal data into the Platform.

cookies and other technologies that recognize browsers and devices. We use these
technologies to collect the categories of personal data described above in
Section 2.

The technologies we use include:

   identify an Internet browser. Certain browsers or browser settings sometimes
   block cookies or prevent them from working effectively.
 * Pixels – Pixels are transparent images, iFrames, JavaScript or mobile SDKs
   that we, our advertiser clients, and our partners use to understand how users
   interact with their Digital Properties.

We collect personal data into the Platform through other methods as well. The
Platform contains Pixel Data, Other Client Data, Third-Party Segment Data, and
Other Third Party Data that we receive through server- to-server transfers,
Cookie Syncing (defined in Section 2) and other advertiser client and partner
calls to MediaMath originating from the browser.


4. HOW WE USE PERSONAL DATA IN THE PLATFORM

We use personal data in the Platform for the commercial purposes of delivering
targeted ads to you on behalf of our advertiser clients. We use personal data
for our business purposes to improve our Platform, our products and our services
that we provide to our advertiser clients and partners, as well as to create new
products and services. Below, we have set out a description of specific ways we
use various combinations of your personal data in the Platform to fulfil our
commercial interests to serve our advertiser clients, as well as to improve our
products.

Reports
We also publish or otherwise make public anonymous, aggregate, or summary
information regarding campaigns run in the Platform on behalf of our advertiser
clients. For example, we may publish a report that reflects aggregated
statistics regarding seasonal trends in shopping patterns or geographic
differences in advertising impression opportunities. These reports do not
contain personal data.

Automated decision-making and profiling

Our Platform uses proprietary algorithms to make automated decisions about
whether or not to bid on opportunities to serve you ads on behalf of our
advertiser clients and, if so, how much to bid. The ads you see are the result
of advertiser client campaigns that specify how much to spend and on what basis
to spend combined with the use of our algorithms. The ways in which we use
algorithms to determine bid prices may be considered automated decision-making
in certain jurisdictions. Additionally, these processes, in combination with
advertiser client campaigns described below, may constitute profiling in certain
jurisdictions.

These automated decisions use the MediaMath ID we assign to your browser or
device. Using proprietary technology, we associate data that we collect from
third parties with this MediaMath ID. We create Segments using inferred details
about certain of your preferences, behaviors, and demographic information, and
use those Segments to serve ads on behalf of our advertiser clients. For
example, if you are browsing a shoe retailer’s website on your mobile device, we
may infer that you are interested in buying sneakers and associate that mobile
device with a sneaker-buyer Segment. If an advertiser client subsequently wants
to advertise sneakers, the advertiser client may choose to target that Segment
across your devices. If MediaMath then receives an opportunity to show you an
ad, provided by an advertiser client, on your computer browser, which computer
browser has been associated with your mobile device by our algorithm,
MediaMath’s bidding technology will automatically decide whether to bid and if
so what price to bid on behalf of our advertiser clients, based on the data and
algorithms outlined above.

Legal basis for processing (EEA and UK)

Our legal basis under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR“) for
processing the personal data in the Platform depends on the personal data
concerned and the specific context in which we process it. However, we will
normally collect personal data about you only where we have your consent or the
processing is in our (or a third party’s, such as our advertiser clients’)
legitimate interests and not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms.
If we collect and use your personal data in reliance on our legitimate interests
(or those of any third party), this interest will normally be to deliver you
with ads through our technology (where we do not rely on your consent for such
purposes), to measure ad performance, to develop and improve our products, to
ensure appropriate security and to prevent and detect fraud in connection with
our services. We may have other legitimate interests and, if appropriate, we
will make clear to you at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.
If you have questions about or need further information concerning the legal
basis on which we collect and use your personal data, please contact us using
the contact details provided in Section 12 below.

California Residents:

CCPA sale/share of personal information

For the purposes of the CCPA, MediaMath may disclose all of the categories of
personal information collected on the Platform to the categories of third
parties as described in Section 7 below, for purposes that may be considered a
“sale” and/or “share” under the CCPA as amended by CPRA. We do not sell or share
the personal information of minors under 16 years of age without affirmative
authorization.

Do Not Sell/Share My Personal Information: If you are a California resident and
want to exercise your right to opt out of the sale/share of your personal
information, please see complete the Access Request Form available. If you opt
out of the sale/share of your personal information, MediaMath may still process
your personal data to show you ads that are not personalized or otherwise
provide certain services to advertiser clients that do not involve the sale or
sharing of personal information under the CCPA. You can also opt out of the
sale/share of your personal information here
https://www.mediamath.com/privacy-policy/ccpa-optout/

Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) for California Residents: GPC is a technical
specification for transmitting universal opt-out signals, also sometimes
referred to as a universal opt-out mechanism, designed to allow you to notify
businesses of your privacy preferences, such as whether or not you want your
personal information to be sold or shared. It consists of a setting or extension
in your browser or mobile device and acts as a mechanism that websites can use
to indicate they support the specification. We are aware that various parties
are developing GPCsignals, and we recognize such GPC signals in accordance with
the requirements of the CCPA. GPC is a feature that you can enable on a number
of internet browsers, including Mozilla Firefox, DuckDuckGo and Brave, or
download as a browser extension. For information on how to enable GPC see
https://globalprivacycontrol.org/faq

Do Not Track Signals: Some web browsers have options that may be characterized
as “do not track” settings, which may or may not affect your settings related to
our Website. We do NOT understand them to operate in that manner or to signify a
“do not sell/share” request made by a consumer under the CCPA.

Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut and Utah Residents (State residents excluding
California): If you are a state resident and want to exercise your right to opt
out of the processing of your personal data for the purposes of targeted
advertising, please see the Op-out and choice mechanisms below. If you opt out
of the processing of your personal data for the purposes of targeted
advertising, MediaMath may still process your personal data to show you ads that
are not personalized or otherwise provide certain services to advertiser clients
that do not involve the processing of your personal data for the purposes of
targeted advertising under the applicable privacy laws for state residents
excluding California.

Opt-out and choice mechanisms

Opt out of targeted advertising

You may opt out from targeted advertising at any time through one of the ways
described below. If you opt out of targeted advertising, you will still see ads,
but those ads are less likely to have anything to do with products or services
you care about. With targeted advertising, you receive ads and offers that are
more likely to be useful to you.

Your opt-out is only applicable to the Platform and does not opt you out from
platforms provided by third-party companies. However, you can opt out from both
MediaMath and many third-party companies at once; to do so, please see “Other
ways to opt out of targeted advertising” below. When you opt out, MediaMath will
collect data from your browser, app, or device only as needed to honor your
opt-out and for limited research and development purposes to improve our
browser- and device-recognition technology, which also helps to improve our
ability to honor your opt-out. When you opt out, MediaMath also stops sending
targeted advertising to the opted-out browser, app, or device.

If you use multiple browsers or devices and wish to limit the data that
MediaMath collects and do not wish to receive MediaMath targeted advertising on
any of them, you must opt out from each browser and device individually,
including when you enable GPC, which must be enabled from each browser and
device individually.

Opt out of targeted advertising in a browser

You may opt out if you are using a browser by clicking the “Click here to opt
out” link below. Please note that if cookies are not enabled in your browser,
including if third-party cookies are disabled, or if you use certain ad-blocking
tools, our opt-out mechanism may not work properly. Please also note that
deleting your cookies does not opt you out. If you clear your cookies, or if you
use a different browser or device, you will need to renew your opt-out choice.

Opt this browser out of targeted advertising (if using a browser)

Your current opt-out status with MediaMath in this web browser is:



Opt out of targeted advertising in the mobile application environment

You may opt out in mobile app environments using the “AppChoices” mobile
application, where applicable, which you can download to your mobile device from
your App Store or via the DAA AppChoices page here.

Other ways to opt out of targeted advertising

You may learn more about targeted advertising and opt out of targeted
advertising from MediaMath and other online advertising companies that are also
members of applicable self-regulatory organizations by visiting their opt-out
links:

 * NAI (browser) – http://optout.networkadvertising.org/

 * DAA Canada (browser) – http://youradchoices.ca/choices
 * EDAA (browser) – http://www.youronlinechoices.com/
 * DAA AppChoices page (mobile) – http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices

Other ways to limit ad tracking in the mobile and OTT TV device application
environment

You also may limit ad tracking in mobile app environments on your mobile device
as well as on your OTT TV Device. For the most effective and up-to-date methods
for doing so, you should consult instructions provided by those device
manufacturers. The NAI provides additional information regarding opting out on
mobile available here and TV streaming devices available here.

Where MediaMath receives a signal to limit ad tracking, we will collect data
from your device only as needed to honor your choice and for limited research
and development purposes to improve our device-recognition technology, which
also helps to improve our ability to honor your choice. Where MediaMath receives
a signal to limit ad tracking, MediaMath also will not serve targeted
advertising in the apps on your mobile device or OTT TV Device.

Social media features and widgets

The Website includes social media features that allow you to share news, events,

LinkedIn or by email. If you interact with these features, doing so will result
in certain personal data being provided to the relevant third party such as IP
address and your browser’s technical information, as well as the URL of the
content which you are seeking to share. These social media features are hosted
by the third parties providing them, and your interactions with these features

Legal basis for processing

Our legal basis under the GDPR for processing the personal data described in
this Section 5 depends on the personal data concerned and the specific context
in which we collect it. However, we will normally collect your personal data
only where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by
your fundamental rights and freedoms, or where we have your consent to do so. If
we collect and use your personal data in reliance on our legitimate interests,
this interest will normally be to operate the Website, to communicate with you,
to send you marketing communications (unless we are required to obtain your
permission in accordance with applicable law), to show you basic or contextual
ads on Digital Properties. (where we do not rely on your consent for such
purposes) and in general to promote MediaMath goods and services. We may have
other legitimate interests and, if appropriate, we will make clear to you at the
relevant time what those legitimate interests are. Our legal basis for
processing Pixel Data is as described in Section 4.
In some cases, we also may have a legal obligation to collect personal data from
you. If we ask you to provide personal data to comply with a legal requirement,
we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the
provision of your personal data is mandatory or not (as well as of the possible
consequences if you do not provide your personal data).

Where we are required by applicable law to obtain your consent, for instance (in
some cases) in order to send you marketing communications, we will do so. In
such cases the legal basis for our processing of personal data will be your
consent.

If you have questions about or need further information concerning the legal
basis on which we collect and use your personal data, please contact us using
the contact details provided under the “How to contact us” heading above.

For individuals in the EEA, UK and Switzerland

MediaMath has its headquarters in the United States and many of our partners or
vendors are based outside of the EEA, UK and Switzerland. Whenever we transfer

vendors.

EU-U.S. Privacy Shield and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield

Notwithstanding the invalidation of the Privacy Shield Frameworks as mechanisms
for the lawful transfer of data out of the EU and Switzerland (as applicable),
MediaMath, Inc., in addition to entering into the Standard Contractual Clauses
referred to above, continues to comply with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework

of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of personal data

Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern. To find out more about
the Privacy Shield, access the Privacy Shield List, and find details of our
certification, please visit: https://www.privacyshield.gov/list.

Under the Privacy Shield, MediaMath, Inc. may remain liable if its
subcontractors process your personal data in a manner inconsistent with the
Privacy Shield Principles, unless we prove that we are not responsible for the
event giving rise to the damage.

has not been processed in compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles may

9. PERSONAL DATA SECURITY AND INTEGRITY

MediaMath implements appropriate technical and organizational measures to
safeguard personal data in our possession against being accidentally lost, used,
or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed. No transmission of
data over the Internet, however, is guaranteed to be completely secure. It may
be possible for third parties not under the control of MediaMath to intercept or
access transmissions or communications unlawfully. While we strive to protect
your personal data, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any data you
transmit to us or that we collect about you. We have procedures in place to
address any suspected personal data breach, and if we are required by law, we
will notify you of any such breach.

MediaMath processes information in a way that is compatible with and relevant
for the purpose for which it was collected. To the extent necessary for those
purposes, we take reasonable steps to ensure that any information in our care is
accurate, complete, current, and reliable for its intended use. If you have any
questions about security on the Website or through the Platform, you can contact
us at privacy@mediamath.com.

Retention of data collected on the platform

As described above, we process your personal data for different purposes, and

periods of time. Furthermore, we may delete personal data in response to a
request from a user under applicable law, when requested to do so by our clients

expire within thirteen months, while certain cookies that are not used for
tracking are refreshed for as long as such cookies are necessary for our
legitimate business purposes (subject to obtaining any necessary consents).

Retention of data collected on the Website and for marketing

If you provide us with your personal data on our Website or through other means
described above in Section 5, we will retain your information for as long as it

information from us. Similarly, we retain log files for as long as it is
necessary for our legitimate business purposes.
