  • The WFAFB site collects data related to targeted advertising and the behavior demonstrated by end users on advertiser websites. Data is converted into obfuscated audience lists from which individual identities cannot be determined by Third-Party vendors.  Specifically, collected data is cookie data, which DSP platforms process, creating audiences and attributing actions to specific ad campaigns. Data is stored in vetted third-party platforms, which facilitate the collection of this data through secured tags. These platforms all conform to necessary data privacy laws and allow for the exercise of all rights of data subjects. Lastly, platforms that allow for user-level tracking do so only through data gathered with proper consent and obscure any form of user identification.
