8. Advertising
- How Advertising Works on Booked Strong
Booked Strong may display advertisements, which could be served directly or via third-party advertising networks. These ads may use technologies like cookies, web beacons, and similar tools to collect non-personal information—such as browser type, operating system, pages viewed, and device identifiers—either on our Website or other sites where these networks operate. This helps tailor ads to user interests and measure ad performance. We do not control the data collection practices of these advertisers. - Interest‑Based & Behavioral Advertising
We and our advertising partners may collect information to deliver ads tailored to your interests (“interest-based” or “behavioral” advertising). This involves tracking your online activity across websites and apps to better understand your preferences and optimize ad relevance or frequency.
- Notice and User Choices
In compliance with industry standards like the NAI (Network Advertising Initiative) and self-regulatory frameworks, we provide “clear, meaningful, and prominent” notice of interest-based advertising on our site. You may exercise choice regarding such advertising by visiting opt-out portals such as the NAI’s or DAA’s choices platforms. - Compliance with Advertising Platform Requirements
When using ad tools from platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter (including conversion pixels, matched audiences, and tracking pixels), Booked Strong ensures transparency by notifying users of data collection practices per those platforms’ policies. We also offer opt-out mechanisms as required. - Do‑Not‑Track Signals
Booked Strong currently does not respond to browser “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals. If your browser or device supports Global Privacy Control (GPC), please adjust your settings directly as applicable. - Third‑Party Advertising Partners
Our advertising partners, such as ad networks or affiliate programs, have their own privacy practices. You can find their specific data handling and opt-out information via the links we provide in our Privacy Policy. We advise reviewing those policies for more details.
