Mediavine Programmatic Advertising (Ver 1.1)
The Website works with Mediavine to manage third-party interest-based advertising appearing on the
Website. Mediavine serves content and advertisements when you visit the Website, which may use first
and third-party cookies. A cookie is a small text file which is sent to your computer or mobile device
(referred to in this policy as a “device”) by the web server so that a website can remember some
information about your browsing activity on the Website.
First party cookies are created by the website that you are visiting. A third-party cookie is frequently used
in behavioral advertising and analytics and is created by a domain other than the website you are visiting.
Third-party cookies, tags, pixels, beacons and other similar technologies (collectively, “Tags”) may be
placed on the Website to monitor interaction with advertising content and to target and optimize
advertising. Each internet browser has functionality so that you can block both first and third-party cookies
and clear your browser’s cache. The “help” feature of the menu bar on most browsers will tell you how to
stop accepting new cookies, how to receive notification of new cookies, how to disable existing cookies
and how to clear your browser’s cache. For more information about cookies and how to disable them, you
can consult the information at https://www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/.
Without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of the Website content and features. Please
note that rejecting cookies does not mean that you will no longer see ads when you visit our Site. In the
event you opt-out, you will still see non-personalized advertisements on the Website.
The Website collects the following data using a cookie when serving personalized ads:
● IP Address
● Operating System type
● Operating System version
● Device Type
● Language of the website
● Web browser type
● Email (in hashed form)
Mediavine Partners (companies listed below with whom Mediavine shares data) may also use this data to
link to other end user information the partner has independently collected to deliver targeted
advertisements. Mediavine Partners may also separately collect data about end users from other
sources, such as advertising IDs or pixels, and link that data to data collected from Mediavine publishers
in order to provide interest-based advertising across your online experience, including devices, browsers
and apps. This data includes usage data, cookie information, device information, information about
interactions between users and advertisements and websites, geolocation data, traffic data, and
information about a visitor’s referral source to a particular website. Mediavine Partners may also create
unique IDs to create audience segments, which are used to provide targeted advertising.
If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices to opt-in or opt-out of this
data collection, please visit https://thenai.org/opt-out/. You may also visit http://optout.aboutads.info/#/
and http://optout.networkadvertising.org/# to learn more about interest-based advertising. You may
download the AppChoices app at https://youradchoices.com/appchoices to opt out in connection with
mobile apps, or use the platform controls on your mobile device to opt out.

privacy policies, please visit https://www.mediavine.com/ad-partners/
Embedded Content
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or social media posts).
Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited the other website

operate our business, including:
● Email service providers (for newsletters).

● Payment processors (for future transactions).
