Targeted advertising
Our hosting and advertising partners use device identifiers and other similar technologies to show you ads that are useful to you. We, (Affiliates and Partners) may share certain information such as your location, browser, cookie data, and other data relating to your use of our Service with our business partners to deliver personalized advertisements (“ads”) that may be of interest to you.
Cybetor may allow third-party ad servers or ad networks to serve personalized advertisements either on the Service or on third party websites, including Facebook and Google. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser or mobile device, these personalized ads and ad links, and will automatically receive your IP address when they do so. They may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, device identifiers, location data, and clear gifs, beacons, Pixels etc.) to compile information about your browser’s or device’s visits and usage patterns on the Service, and to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize the advertising content. Cybetor does not sell, rent, or share the information we collect directly from you or about you from third parties with these third-party ad servers or ad networks for such parties’ own marketing purposes.
Please note that an advertiser may ask Cybetor to show an ad to a certain audience of users (e.g., based on demographics or other interests). In that situation, Cybetor determines the target audience and Cybetor serves the advertising to that audience and only provides anonymous aggregated data to the advertiser. If you respond to such an ad, the advertiser or ad server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach.
Facebook: We may use the pixel function of Facebook Custom Audiences to identify users who have landed on certain pages for the purposes of target group-orientated remarketing and advertising. The Facebook pixel stores a cookie, which means that information about your visit to our Website will be shared with Facebook. Also, as part of the “advanced matching” undertaken by Facebook, other information (such as telephone number, email address, Facebook ID) may be shared with Facebook in a hashed form. These cookies, and the information collected, are used to help Facebook deliver advertising on our behalf to users who have previously visited our Website when they are on Facebook or another platform powered by Facebook Advertising, and to track advertising success. You can modify your Facebook Ad settings to restrict these advertisements. Learn more about the different types of Facebook cookies here: https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies/
