(12) Ad Choices

Flashtalking is taking a proactive step of implementing the Adchoices privacy icon on all FTrack ads served by Flashtalking. Globally recognized, the Adchoices icon provides conspicuous notice with a link to Flashtalking’s privacy information page where consumers can learn who we are, how we collect data, what we do (and don’t do) with their data and how to opt out of Flashtalking tracking. We believe this is an important step in future-proofing data-driven advertising while protecting the interests of consumers and advertisers. The Adchoices icon was originally introduced to indicate behaviourally targeted ads. With the increasing focus on Privacy and the emergence of cookieless tracking, Flashtalking seeks to ensure that consumer notice and choice – key tenants of privacy best practices – are natively included in all FTrack ads served by Flashtalking. For FTrack site tags, Flashtalking provides each Advertiser with clear disclosure language that links to our privacy information and opt-out page. Through these steps, we seek to better represent Advertisers’ legitimate interest in delivering, personalizing, and measuring media and creative while respecting user intent and consumer choice.

(13) Privacy Page

Flashtalking is taking a proactive step of requesting the inclusion of Flashtalking specific terminology on partner privacy pages. For those advertisers leveraging Flashtalking’s cookieless identity solution (FTrack) consumers should be informed of the usage of these tools and be given easy access to information and control of these features. This language is intended to provides conspicuous notice with a link to Flashtalking’s privacy information page where consumers can learn who we are, how we collect data, what we do (and don’t do) with their data and how to opt-out of Flashtalking tracking. We believe this is an important step in futureproofing data-driven advertising while protecting the interests of consumers and advertisers. Senior Trust uses the Flashtalking platform for ad creation, delivery, device recognition, and advertising campaign analysis applying both cookie-based and cookie-less technologies to identify and connect devices.
