The served ads will be targeted based on your previous browsing history and may include retargeting codes.  For example, third-party vendors may show you ads on certain websites across the Internet, even after you leave our platform.  The collected information is anonymized, meaning it cannot be tracked back to individuals.  Using such tools, we learn how to optimize, and serve ads based on a user’s past visits, providing you with a better user experience.

We also may report aggregated or de-identified information about the number of users that saw a particular ad or content and related audience engagement information to users of our Services and to publishers of content on StripeLyfe.

Advertisers who are integrated with our Services may, likewise, provide us with information as part of their ad campaigns, including customer information (e.g., email addresses, phone numbers, or other contact information, demographic or interest data) in order to create custom audiences for personalizing their ad campaigns or for measuring the effectiveness of their ads; we only use this information to facilitate the particular advertiser’s campaign (including ad metrics and reporting to that advertiser), and we do not disclose this information to third parties (other than our service providers) unless required by law.  Also, we do not disclose to the advertisers who use our Services the names or contact information of their customers.

Google’s advertising requirements can be summed up by Google’s Advertising Principles.  Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our Site.  Google’s use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to our users based on previous visits to our Site, third-party vendor’s websites, and other websites on the Internet.

Unlike cookies, device IDs cannot be deleted, but you can select to reset your Advertising IDs in the “Settings” section of your mobile device.

You can learn more about how to opt-out by browsing Google’s opting-out and privacy pages located at www.google.com, or the Network Advertising Initiative website located at www.networkadvertising.org.
