Our advertising is handled by ExoClick. They do not collect or retain any consumer personally identifiable information (PII). This means their data does not directly identify any individuals (i.e. name, email address, or billing information). That said, the GDPR broadens the definition of personal data to include the data that they collect for the purpose of their services. More precisely, they use pseudonymous data linked to browsing events. For instance, ExoClick collects the following data from visitors to this website:
- URL of the websites and pages browsed by the visitors;
- Aggregated technical information related to the browser and device of the user (“user agent”)
- Time stamp (date, time)
- IP address
