Targeted Advertising and Analytics
We engage others to provide analytics services, serve advertisements , and perform related services across the web and in applications. These entities may use cookies, web beacons, SDKs, device identifiers, and other technologies to collect information about your use of our Sites, including your IP address, web browser and network information, pages viewed, time spent on pages or in apps, links clicked, and conversion information.

In addition, some of our advertising partners also enable us to translate your email address or phone number into an identifier that can’t be used to identify you personally. Our advertising partners then use that unique identifier to show ads that are more relevant to you across the web and in apps. Some of the activities described in this section may constitute “targeted advertising,” “sharing,” or “selling” under certain laws. To learn more about the choices available to you with respect to these practices, see below.
