SPARTEO undertakes to collect only data that is strictly necessary for the performance of the services offered and which are mainly:
The operation implemented by SPARTEO for its clients and the optimization services implemented for the display of advertising on the sites and app published by the clients who entrust us with these operations.
The provision of no data is compulsory, SPARTEO always proposing an “all decline” button.
In the event that you are asked for optional data, SPARTEO will clearly inform you of the Personal Data required to perform the service.
The categories of data are:
- IP addresses
Your IP address is a number assigned by your Internet Service Provider to any Internet connection. It is not always specific to your device and is not always a stable identifier.
It is used to route information on the Internet and display online content (including ads) on your connected device.
- Device characteristics
Technical characteristics about the device you are using that are not unique to you, such as the language, the time zone or the operating system.
The Personal Data that is collected directly from you is only used for the purposes that brought to your attention below.
- Authentication-derived identifiers
Where an identifier is created on the basis of authentication data, such as contact details associated with online accounts you have created on websites or apps (e.g. e-mail address, phone number) or customer identifiers (e.g. identifier provided by your telecom operator), that identifier may be used to recognise you across websites, apps and devices when you are logged-in with the same contact details.
- Browsing and interaction data
Your online activity such as the websites you visit, apps you are using, the content you search for on this service, or your interactions with content or ads, such as the number of times you have seen a specific content or ad or whether you clicked on it.
- Non-precise location data
An approximation of your location, expressed as an area with a radius of at least 500 metres. Your approximate location can be deduced from e.g. the IP address of your connection.
- Users’ profiles
Certain characteristics (e.g. your possible interests, your purchase intentions, your consumer profile) may be inferred or modelled from your previous online activity (e.g. the content you viewed or the service you used, your time spent on various online content and services) or the information you have provided (e.g. your age, your occupation).
- Privacy choices
A Vendor may process users’ signals or part of it as defined by the Policies or Specifications sent by a CMP, usually on behalf of a Publisher, to Vendors that includes, amongst others, information about the transparency, consent, and/or objection status of a Vendor and/or Purpose, the opt-in status of a Special Feature, and Publisher restrictions.
What is the basis for the legitimacy of our treatments?
SPARTEO relies on the two following legitimate bases for processing Personal Data consent and Legitimate interest, for the purpose listed below:
- Consent
With regard to the following purposes, the legal basis for the processing of the Personal Data of the user will be the consent of the latter, if he has given it when offered prior to accessing the services in which advertisements will be displayed and for those different purpose:
- Store and/or access information on a Device
Cookies, device or similar online identifiers (e.g. login-based identifiers, randomly assigned identifiers, network based identifiers) together with other information (e.g. browser type and information, language, screen size, supported technologies etc.) can be stored or read on your Device to recognise it each time it connects to an app or to a website. This purpose will be used only in conjunction with another Purpose or comply with another legal basis. This purpose is intended to enable processing activities such as:
- Signal whether the condition for lawful storing and/or accessing information on a user’s device is met where this is required.
- Create profiles for personalised advertising
Information about your activity on this service (such as forms you submit, content you look at) can be stored and combined with other information about you (for example, information from your previous activity on this service and other websites or apps) or similar users. This is then used to build or improve a profile about you (that might include possible interests and personal aspects). Your profile can be used (also later) to present advertising that appears more relevant based on your possible interests by this and other entities
This purpose is intended to enable processing activities such as:
- Associate data collected, including information about the content and the device, such as: device type and capabilities, user agent, URL, IP address with a new or existing ad profile based on user interests or personal aspect of the user
- Establish retargeting criteria
- Establish positive or negative targeting criteria
- Associate data obtained offline with an online user to create or edit a user profile for use in advertising, provided that a legal basis was established offline at the point of data collection
- Collecting data for deterministic cross-device mapping (e.g. if a user logs into an account on one device and then on another)
- Associate an identifier obtained by receiving and using automatically sent device characteristics, with a profile for use in advertising
Even if we obtain users' consent, we do not use their full IP but only the first 3 bytes.
- Use profiles to select personalised advertising
Advertising presented to you on this service can be based on your advertising profiles, which can reflect your activity on this service or other websites or apps (like the forms you submit, content you look at), possible interests and personal aspects.
This purpose is intended to enable processing activities such as:
- Select ads based on a personalised ads profile
- Select an ad based on retargeting criteria
- Select an ad based on positive or negative targeting criteria tied to a profile
- Select dynamic creative based on an ad profile, or other historical information
- Create profiles to personalise content
We use this purpose to improve the user experience and provide complementary content that may be of interest to the user, but also, for example, to exclude content that has already been consumed.
This purpose is intended to enable processing activities such as:
- Associate data collected, including information about the content and the device, such as: device type and capabilities, user agent, URL, IP address with a new or existing content profile based on user interests or personal characteristics of the user
- Establish positive or negative targeting criteria
Even if we obtain users' consent, we do not use their full IP but only the first 3 bytes.
- Use profiles to select personalised content
Content presented to you on this service can be based on your content personalisation profiles, which can reflect your activity on this or other services (for instance, the forms you submit, content you look at), possible interests and personal aspects, such as by adapting the order in which content is shown to you, so that it is even easier for you to find (non-advertising) content that matches your interests.
This purpose is intended to enable processing activities such as:
- Select content based on a personalised content profile
- Use and manage the information you give us (ie: in “contact us”)for the following purposes :
- Managing the user’s registration to the website and applications;
- Sending information, news and personalized information;
- Replying to requests for exercising rights of access, modification, cancellation and objection, and to the user’s questions and complaints.
If the user withdraws their consent to such processing activities, such withdrawal will not affect the performance of the sales contract between the data subject and SPARTEO
- Legitimate interest
Our legitimate interest is globally to be able to ensure that our service remains safe, and to be able without infringing their interests to select advertising to measure advertising and content performance, develop and improve services by themselves with the use of limited data to select content.
All these actions are carried out with the aim of improving user satisfaction without an excessive impact on the rights and freedoms of the person concerned.
To this end, SPARTEO's interests have been weighed against those of the users for each type of legitimate interest described below, in order to ensure that SPARTEO's interests do not prevail over those of the users.
With regard to the following purposes, the legal basis for processing the user's Personal Data shall be the legitimate interest of SPARTEO:
- Use limited data
To Advertising presented to you on this service can be based on limited data, such as the website or app you are using, your non-precise location, your device type or which content you are (or have been) interacting with (for example, to limit the number of times an ad is presented to you).
This purpose is intended to enable processing activities with non-precise geolocation data to select and deliver an ad such as:
- Selection and delivery of an ad based on real-time data (e.g. information about the page content, app type, non-precise geolocation data etc.)
- Real time data, as referenced above, may be used for positive or negative targeting e.g. to serve an ad adapted to the online context or prevent an ad from serving in an unsuitable (brand-unsafe) context
- Control the frequency of ads shown to a user
- Sequence the order in which ads are shown to a user
- With data from other data sources combine data obtained offline with data available in the moment, about the user, to select an ad Link different devices in order to select an ad
- Identify a device by receiving and using automatically sent device characteristics in order to select an ad in the moment
SPARTEO's action for this purpose based on legitimate interest does not excessively infringe the user's rights, as it does not use directly identifying data and does so solely to avoid repeating the same advertisement several times or placing an advertisement in relation to the content. The general idea is to ensure a basic service for advertisers by placing their ads in environments that match the content in relation to which it is displayed, and to protect the delivery of ads by avoiding environments unsuitable for their brands or illegal content.
- Measure advertising performance
Information regarding which advertising is presented to you and how you interact with it can be used to determine how well an advert has worked for you or other users and whether the goals of the advertising were reached. For instance, whether you saw an ad, whether you clicked on it, whether it led you to buy a product or visit a website, etc. This is very helpful to understand the relevance of advertising campaigns.
This purpose is intended to enable processing activities such as:
- Measure how brand suitable or safe the content of the digital property where the ad was served was
- Measure the percentage of the ad that had the opportunity to be seen and for how long
- Measure how many users engaged with an ad, for how long and what was the nature of that engagement (click, tap, hover, scroll etc.)
- Determine how many unique users or devices an ad was served to
- Measure the time when users saw the ad
- Measure/ analyse the characteristics of the device the ad was served to (non-precise location, type of device, screen size, language of the device, operating system/browser, mobile carrier)
- Measure ad attribution, conversions, sales lift
- Report on an aggregate level
SPARTEO's use of legitimate interests for this purpose does not excessively infringe users' rights, as it is content, in the case of contextual advertising, without using any personal data, to count user interactions on the ads in order to be technically able to invoice advertisers and, to this end, to send them performance reports on their ads. Under no circumstances are these reports sent to advertisers on an individual level, but only with aggregated results.
- Measure content performance
Information regarding which content is presented to you and how you interact with it can be used to determine whether the (non-advertising) content e.g. reached its intended audience and matched your interests.
Content refers to elements of the service (articles and videos) and not advertising as such.
For instance, whether you read an article, watch a video, listen to a podcast or look at a product description, how long you spent on this service and the web pages you visit etc. This is very helpful to understand the relevance of (non-advertising) content that is shown to you.
This purpose is intended to enable processing activities such as:
- Measure how many users engaged with content, for how long and what was the nature of that engagement (click, tap, hover, scroll etc.)
- Determine how many users or devices content was served to
- Measure the time when users saw content
- Measure/ analyse the characteristics of the device content was served to (non-precise location, type of device, screen size, language of the device, operating system/browser, mobile carrier,…)
- Measure user referrals
SPARTEO's action for this purpose based on legitimate interest does not excessively infringe the user's rights because it does not use directly identifying data and does so only to carry out general measurements without seeking to specifically identify a user and by only producing aggregated results.
- Understand audiences through statistics or combinations of data from different sources
Reports can be generated based on the combination of data sets (like user profiles, statistics, market research, analytics data) regarding your interactions and those of other users with advertising or (non-advertising) content to identify common characteristics (for instance, to determine which target audiences are more receptive to an ad campaign or to certain contents).
This purpose is intended to enable processing activities without the use of geographic data such as:
- Provide aggregate reporting to publishers or their representatives about the unique reach of online services
- Create market research aggregate reporting (e.g. Syndicated data from JICs, Ad Audience certifications, etc.)
SPARTEO's action for this purpose, based on legitimate interest, does not excessively infringe the user's rights, as it uses this data to certify the audience performance of its services.
For this purpose, no personal data is used, except the IP address, which is anonymized at the time of collection. This measurement enables us to offer clients a measure of user engagement with their content, just like consolidated statistics on the sale of a magazine at international, national, local or even newsstand level, but never on an individual basis, as the data is always aggregated to provide an approach to the number of visitors with an acceptable margin of error.
- Develop and improve services
Information about your activity on this service, such as your interaction with ads or content, can be very helpful to improve products and services and to build new products and services based on user interactions, the type of audience, etc. This specific purpose does not include the development or improvement of user profiles and identifiers.
This purpose is intended to enable processing activities such as:
- Product improvement or new product development
- Creation of new models and algorithms through machine learning
By acting for this purpose based on legitimate interest, SPARTEO does not excessively infringe the user's rights, since it does so solely to carry out general measurements leading only to aggregated results, using for this purpose only the first bytes of the IP and therefore without collecting any element enabling the user to be identified.
- Use limited data to select content
Content presented to you on this service can be based on limited data, such as the website or app you are using, your non-precise location, your device type, or which content you are (or have been) interacting with (for example, to limit the number of times a video or an article is presented to you).
This purpose is intended to enable processing activities such as:
- Selection and delivery of content based on real-time data (e.g. information about the page content or content embedded within the page, app type, non-precise geolocation data etc.)
- Real time data, as referenced above, may be used for positive or negative targeting e.g. to select content adapted to the online context or prevent an content from serving in an unsuitable (brand-unsafe) context
- Control the frequency of content shown to a user
- Sequence the order in which content are shown to a user
- Note: This purpose allows processing of non-precise geolocation data to select and deliver content.
By acting for this purpose based on legitimate interest, SPARTEO does not excessively infringe the user's rights because it does not use directly identifying data and does so solely to ensure the quality of the user experience by avoiding the same content being displayed several times, that the display is related to the content currently being viewed, that the content is in the user's language…
