10. Advertising Networks and Partners

The following companies provide us with advertising and marketing-related services. If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), please be aware that these advertising networks, analytics providers, and other third-party companies may collect or receive certain information from your browser or device for advertising purposes. Such information may include device identifiers (such as advertising IDs), IP addresses, and other personal or non-personal information related to advertising delivery and user interactions (for example, lists of installed applications, tracking technologies, or engagement data). This data is used for purposes including but not limited to performance measurement, personalization, ad selection and delivery, reporting, and optimization.

An advertising identifier is a non-permanent device identifier, such as the Android Advertising ID or the Apple Identifier for Advertising (IDFA). To manage personalized advertising, use your device privacy settings and review the controls described in the provider policies below.

Unless otherwise specified, the advertising networks listed below act as independent data controllers. This means they determine the purposes and means of processing your data independently. You may consult their respective privacy policies to learn more about how your data is processed and to exercise your opt-out options.

Please note that Fyber, Mobfox, and PubNative act as data processors on our behalf and only process personal data under our instructions, rather than as independent controllers.
