We or the online advertising networks use this information to make the advertisements you see online more relevant to your interests.

These companies have interest-based advertising programs that allow us to direct advertisements to users who have shown interest in our services or our third-party partners’ services while those users are on the social media platform, or to groups of other users who share similar traits, such as likely commercial interests and demographics. These advertisements are governed by the privacy policies of those social media companies that provide them.

In addition, third parties may still use cookies to collect information about your use of our online services, including for analytics and fraud prevention purposes, as well as any other purpose permitted under the DAA’s Principles.
