8. Processing of website and mobile app visitor data in the NEORY marketing cloud

 

a. Our services

The NEORY Marketing Cloud (technology) is used to deliver digital advertising, manage digital advertising campaigns, conduct effective market research/analysis, collect statistical data for campaign tracking, detect malicious or invalid activity. In addition, the technology enables us, our partners and our customers to collect and store data about internet users (devices) and to use this data for analysis and marketing purposes.

 

In particular, the NEORY Marketing Cloud may provide the following services:

​

  1. We operate a Demand Side Platform (“DSP”). As a DSP we represent the demand side of the digital advertising marketplace, in which advertisers and agencies buying advertising inventory are the “demand” and publishers with space for such ads on web pages or mobile apps are the “supply”. Our DSP allows buyers of digital advertising inventory to buy and manage the buying of media advertising inventory from multiple sources through one interface.

  2. Moreover, we operate a Data Management Platform (“DMP”) for the collection and management of data. Such data allow our partners to identify audience segments, which can be used to target specific users and contexts in online advertising campaigns.

  3. We  also operate an AdServer which enables our partners and customers to store advertising content used in online marketing, to deliver that content onto various digital platforms such as websites, social media outlets, and mobile apps, to target ads to different users, and to report impressions, clicks, post-click and post-impression activities and interaction metrics.

 

b. Controllership and commissioned data processing

Through the NEORY marketing cloud we process data either as a Controller on our own behalf or as a Processor on behalf of our partners and customers, in each case for purposes related to targeting, delivering, measuring and reporting on advertising.

 

When providing services as a DSP and if, as a DMP, we provide data to partners for them to process them on our behalf, NEORY acts as a Controller. When providing AdServer services for our partners and customers, and when making available our DMP for partners and customers for them to process data on their own behalf or on behalf of third parties, we act as a Processor.

 

c. Type of personal data

The following user data is processed on the NEORY marketing cloud platform:

​

  • unique cookie identifiers

  • mobile device advertising identifiers

  • Truncated IP addresses

  • Information on advertiser URLs accessed, and at what time the advertiser’s website has been visited

  • interest information stored and/or used on the platform by partners and customers

  • interest information we create

  • other information about browsers and devices, such as type, version, screen resolution and other settings

  • location information based on truncated IP addresses or latitude/longitude coordinates, if provided to us

  • the user’s access provider and internet access speed

  • information about ads that are shown, such as which ads are shown to a device or user, where (which web page or app) they are shown, and at what time

  • views and clicks of, and interactions with, ads

  • online transactions with advertisers

  • preferred languages

 

Data processed on the NEORY marketing cloud platform is pseudonymous, which means that it can not be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information which is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the Personal Data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

 

d. Collection of data, cookies

We do not collect data from you except for unique cookie identifiers. Collecting unique cookie identifiers enable us, our partners and our customers to create and use user profiles associated with unique IDs.

 

A cookie is a text file that contains a small amount of information which is downloaded to your browser from the site you are visiting. The server that places cookies into your browser is able to then read the information on the cookie that it set.

 

The NEORY cookie ID has a life span of 90 days after the last access. After this life span the cookie will be deleted.

 

e. Sharing and transfer

Our platform also enables our partners and customers to bring data into the NEORY marketing cloud so that the users on the Platform improve their ad campaigns. Our partners and customers include other DSPs, SSPs, other DMPs, ad exchanges (meaning a technology platform that facilitates the buying and selling of media advertising inventory from multiple ad networks), advertisers and publishers. We may share data processed on the platform with our partners and customers for the purposes of the NEORY marketing cloud as described in this Privacy Policy.

 

Our references to the NEORY marketing cloud in this Privacy Policy only refer to NEORY’s own advertising technology platform and systems and do not include the technology or systems of partners or customers that access the platform or integrate with us. With respect of the use of your data on other advertising technology platforms and systems we do neither act as a Controller nor as Processor of such data.

 

f. Purpose of data processing

We process data in order to provide the services as described in the chapter “Our Services” above. 

 

As part of our services, we may create and use user profiles associated with unique IDs on the basis of the data described in the chapter “Type of Personal Data” above. Such user profiles enable our partners and customers to ensure that visitors of websites and mobile apps see ads which likely match their interests. To that end we also engage in cookie matching, meaning that we match our cookie IDs to our customers’ and partners’ cookie IDs in order to share and aggregate such data for improving ad campaigns.

 

g. Legal basis of data processing; Opt-out

When we process data as a Controller for the purpose of operating a DSP, SSP and DMP, we will use consent as our legal basis for doing so (Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR).

 

NEORY implements and adheres to the specifications and policies of the IAB EU Transparency & Consent Framework as part of our compliance with EU data protection law. NEORY’s vendor identification number within the Framework is 34. See https://iabeurope.eu/transparency-consent-framework/ for more information.

j. Data protection measures

Taking into account the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risks of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, we implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure and to be able to demonstrate that processing is performed in accordance with statutory requirements. Those measures shall be implemented taking into account the state of the art and include, in particular, encryption. The equipment and systems used to process data are protected against unauthorised access, both physically and digitally. In particular, our servers and the servers of our contractors are password-protected and encrypted. Only employees have access to Personal Data to the extent necessary to perform their duties. Our employees receive data processing training before commencing work and are obliged to maintain confidentiality. Regular backups protect the data from loss and can be restored at any time. The default system settings ensure that only Personal Data needed for the respective processing purpose is processed. In this way, we apply data protection principles such as data minimisation. In addition, we use technical and organisational measures to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of the systems. Compliance with data protection regulations is routinely monitored and the measures are updated as and when necessary.

 

9. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data

We process and store your Personal Data only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of the storage or as provided by the European directives and regulations or other laws or regulations to which we are subject. If the data is no longer required for the purpose for which it was originally stored, or if the storage period prescribed by the European directives and regulations or any other relevant laws expires, the Personal Data will be routinely erased or blocked in accordance with the statutory requirements.

 

Any data that we store on the basis of your consent will only be stored until you withdraw your consent. Data which we need for the performance of a contract will be stored only for the duration of our contractual relationship or to comply with statutory retention requirements. We will only store data we use on the basis of our legitimate interests for as long as our interests are not overridden by your interests to have the data erased or anonymised.
