In this Policy, we use the terms “MediaMath“, “our“, “us” and “we” to refer to MediaMath, Inc. and our affiliates. MediaMath is committed to protecting the privacy of individuals (“users”, “you“, “your“) when we process data about you via our proprietary “Future Proofed Platform”™ (the “Platform“), when you visit our website at www.mediamath.com (the “Website“) and when we engage in marketing activities based on contact information you provide to MediaMath through other means described in this Policy. This Policy is provided in a layered format, so you can click through to the specific sections that may interest you. 1. IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND WHO WE ARE Purposes of this Policy This Policy sets out how MediaMath collects and processes personal data, personal information or the equivalent terminology in your jurisdiction (“personal data” or “personal information“) about you via the Platform, when you visit the Website, and when we engage in marketing activities based on contact information you provide to MediaMath through other means described in this Policy. It also sets out how we use personal data, the steps we take to protect it, the parties we disclose it to, and the choices and rights that you have regarding personal data we process about you. The date of the last update can be found at the top of the Policy, and this Policy describes how we have handled personal data in the twelve months prior to the date indicated. You should read this Policy carefully so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your personal data. Who we are MediaMath is a global provider of digital advertising media and data management technology. We provide a technology platform and services, which help our advertiser clients (including agencies of such advertisers) do a more effective job of reaching their desired audiences. Our Platform has several aspects. The demand-side aspect enables our advertiser clients to purchase advertising space (or “inventory“) from publishers (e.g. websites that display ads) in an automated fashion. This inventory includes display, video, audio, social, native, digital out-of-home (e.g., billboards or ads you may see in taxis or buses) and mobile ads. The data management aspect of our Platform provides our advertiser clients with tools to onboard, segment, activate, and understand the data they upload to the Platform. When MediaMath processes your personal data as a controller in the context of operating the Platform, the Website and our marketing activities, the controller of your personal data is MediaMath, Inc., MediaMath GmbH, MediaMath UK Limited and/or MediaMath Publicidade Digital Ltda depending on which MediaMath entity has contracted with the advertiser client. MediaMath is an active member of the industry associations that govern user privacy in the context of digital advertising. As of the last update of this Policy, MediaMath is an active member in and complies with various industry frameworks, including: the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI“) and its NAI Code of Conduct; the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA“) and its “Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising”; Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada (“DAAC“); the European Interactive DAA (“EDAA“); the Interactive Advertising Bureau in the US, Europe and various countries around the world (“IAB“); including the IAB Europe Transparency & Consent Framework as Vendor ID 79 and its Specifications and Policies; and the Association of National Advertisers (“ANA“). Targeted Advertising There are many terms such as interest-based, targeted, personalized, targeted and behavioral, and cross context behavioral advertising, which are all terms either defined by privacy laws in applicable jurisdictions or by self-regulatory bodies and each used to describe advertising which is intended for individuals, groups of individuals, or categories of individuals. In this Policy, MediaMath refer to such advertising as “targeted” in that it is targeted to the types of products or services individuals may be interested in. In this Policy we describe how you can opt out of targeted advertising delivered via our Platform. The display of advertising which is not specifically relevant to individuals or group of individuals, is referred to as “basic” advertising and also as contextual advertising. MediaMath facilitates both the display of “targeted” advertising and “basic” or “contextual” advertising. Personal data pertaining to children MediaMath’s products and services are not designed to deliver targeted ads to children. The definition of “child” varies by location. We do not knowingly collect personal data from or about children under age 16 or any higher age where not permitted to do so under applicable law. To the extent permitted by applicable legislation, we decline any responsibility regarding any activities that may be conducted by children without the permission of their parents or legal guardians. If we are made aware that we may have received personal data from or about a child in respect of whom we are not permitted to process personal data under applicable law, we will use reasonable efforts to investigate and remove that data from our records as soon as practicable. If you have a reason to believe that we might have any information from or about a child under the permitted age in the relevant location, please contact us at privacy@mediamath.com. Links, other websites and other third parties This Policy relates solely to the personal data we collect and process about you in relation to our Platform, our Website, and other interactions you may have with MediaMath that are described in this Policy. MediaMath’s Website contains links to other sites, and the ads delivered by the Platform may run on a variety of other sites. Clicking on those links, accessing other sites, or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share data about you. MediaMath does not control these third-party sites and is not responsible for the privacy practices of such sites. You should refer to the privacy statements of such third-party sites to find out how they collect and use your personal data. Also, as explained below in Section 5, third parties may process personal data from you when you visit the Website. Such processing is governed by the privacy statements of such third parties. 2. THE PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT VIA THE PLATFORM MediaMath collects certain personal data while delivering ads via the Platform. We do not intentionally collect directly identifiable data such as your name, home address, phone number, or any government identifiers such as your Social Security Number unless you provide such personal data in connection with any request that you make directly to MediaMath. MediaMath identifies you by means of personal data related to your computer or device using cookies and other similar technologies, as explained below. We assign a unique identifier called a “MediaMath ID” to your browser, to your devices (such as your mobile device, connected television, or over-the-top television devices (“OTT TV Device“)), or to other screens through which we serve an ad to you on behalf of our advertiser clients. We also assign a MediaMath ID when you access an advertiser client’s digital properties such as their websites, emails, or apps (“Digital Properties“). The MediaMath ID enables the Platform to determine within a reasonable level of confidence that a browser or device is the same one with which the Platform has previously interacted. In some cases, based on data we receive from our advertiser clients or data partners (e.g. audience partners from whom we receive Third Party Segment Data as defined below), we infer within a reasonable probability that another browser or device should be associated with the same MediaMath ID. Where we are able to associate more than one browser or device with the same MediaMath ID, we use this information on behalf of our advertiser clients to deliver targeted ads to you across multiple browsers or devices (known as “Cross-Device Advertising“). The MediaMath ID can be a cookie ID (a unique ID assigned randomly by MediaMath to an unrecognized browser), a mobile advertising ID (a unique ID assigned by the mobile operating system, e.g., Apple ID for Advertising or Android Advertising ID), or an OTT TV Device Identifier for Advertising (a unique ID assigned by an OTT TV provider, e.g., Roku ID for Advertising). Your MediaMath ID is personal data and is associated with other categories of personal data that we collect about you including the following: * Bid Request Data and Impression Data: MediaMath receives personal data about you when we have the opportunity to show you an ad on Digital Properties, (“Bid Request Data“). We collect additional data when we deliver an ad on behalf of our advertiser clients (“Impression Data“). Bid Request Data includes your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, imprecise location (e.g., country, region, postal or zip code), browser type (e.g., Chrome or Internet Explorer); operating system (e.g., Mac OS or Windows); browser language (e.g., English or Spanish); and Internet Service Provider. It also may include IDs that our partners assign to your browser or device, including Google advertising identifiers associated with your browser or device and used by MediaMath as part of its syncing processes. See Google’s Privacy Policy to learn more about its use of the personal data which it receives from partner sites and your ability to control the information which Google collects on these sites. Impression Data includes elements from (and derived from) Bid Request Data, campaign information and bidding information (e.g., site category, number of pages browsed, click event, Application ID, video metrics, page URL, connected device ID, timestamp and connection speed). The sources of Bid Request Data and Impression Data are your browser or device and media supply sources, such as publishers (i.e. organizations who operate Digital Properties) and exchanges or supply-side platforms (i.e. organizations who display ads on publishers’ Digital Properties). * Pixel Data and Other Client Data: MediaMath advertiser clients import personal data to the Platform regarding your interactions with them via their Digital Properties. This data falls into two main categories: Pixel Data and Other Client Data. * Pixel Data is collected by the use of MediaMath and/or third party pixels (described below). Pixel Data includes the time you visited the site, the page URL, your IP address, your browser type (e.g., Chrome or Internet Explorer), the operating system (e.g., Mac OS or Windows), the type of device you used (e.g. laptop or desktop), and data regarding your activities on the Digital Properties. For example, if you are shopping on an advertiser client’s website for a product, and you place a product in your online shopping cart, or make an online purchase, the advertiser client can import that data to the Platform . MediaMath uses this personal data later to help the advertiser client show you an ad on a different website or app. MediaMath advertiser clients may use the Platform to collect personal data in a form that does not reveal your direct identity, such as “hashed” email addresses that cannot be read in their directly identifiable form (i.e. each email address is converted to a code that is unique to that email address). * Other Client Data is personal data that advertiser clients obtain outside of the Platform and import into the Platform. This includes “Segments” that advertiser clients create or obtain independently from third-party sources. A Segment is a grouping of individuals who share one or more attributes (e.g., “car enthusiast”). Individuals are identified in these Segments by online identifiers and not by names or anything that reveals their names. Other Client Data also includes personal data that advertiser clients collect or independently obtain offline, such as purchases made in the advertiser client’s store. Before advertiser clients transmit this offline data to MediaMath, names and other directly identifying information are removed and replaced with a MediaMath ID. * Third-Party Segment Data and Other Third-Party Data: Third Party Segment Data is personal data we receive from third party audience partners who create and provide us with Segments for us and our advertiser clients to use for advertising purposes. These Third- Party Segments are similar to the Segments described above. Other Third Party Data we receive includes personal data from third-party partners that allows them and/or us to associate or match the MediaMath ID with those partners’ identifiers (through a process called “Cookie Syncing”), personal data that associates your different devices with each other, and personal data regarding video content that you view on television or through OTT TV Device. * Identity Codes: We may use an online identification code, generated by one of our first party identity partners, for the purpose of delivering an ad to your device. This code does not contain any of your identifiable personal data and cannot be used to re-identify you. We use this code to enable our delivery and management of targeted advertising throughout your online experience (e.g. web, email, connected devices, and in-app, etc), as well as for data linking and the measurement of ad performance. You have the right to express a choice regarding the use of your data for these purposes. For more information about our identity partner LiveRamp and to opt out of the use of your data used for identity code known as RampID, visit https://liveramp.com/opt_out/ . To opt out of the use of your data used for identity code known as UID2.0, please visit https://transparentadvertising.org/ * Special or Sensitive Categories of Personal Data: We do not knowingly collect any special categories of personal data about individuals in the EEA, the UK, or applicable US States of California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut and Utah (“Applicable US States”) including: personal data revealing your racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership; personal data concerning your mental or physical health condition or diagnosis, sex life, or sexual orientation; processing of genetic or biometric data; citizenship or immigration status and precise geolocation data or contents of mail, email or text messages, unless MediaMath is the intended recipient. MediaMath also does not knowingly collect any data about other sensitive categories such as personal data about financial account numbers, insurance plan numbers, and criminal convictions or offenses. Where NOT considered sensitive in accordance with applicable law outside the EEA, the UK, and Applicable US States we use personal data to create Segments for our clients to use in the following ways: * Our advertiser clients may use health-related Segments about non-sensitive conditions such as an inferred interest in health and wellness or cough medicine and allergy medications. Click here for a list of the standard health-related Segments and a sample of custom health segments provided for use by clients in our Platform. * Our advertiser clients may use Segments based on political information or interests. Click here for a list of the standard political interest Segments and a sample of custom political Segments provided for use by advertiser clients in our Platform. When creating Segments MediaMath does not knowingly process personal data that would be considered sensitive under applicable law (for example, we do not create Segments of users based on personal data considered to be sensitive under applicable laws, such as personal data revealing your racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, personal data concerning your mental or physical health, sex life or sexual orientation, or genetic or biometric data, citizenship or immigration status and precise geolocation data). MediaMath may process Segments based on demographic information such as race, gender and income range where such is information is not considered sensitive pursuant to applicable law. We take steps designed to ensure that this is done in compliance with applicable laws and self-regulatory guidelines, including through our contracts and policies with our advertiser clients and partners. Our advertiser clients are responsible for this processing, and you should direct any queries you have about this use of Segments to them. Categories of information collected pursuant to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA): For the purposes of the CCPA, the above-described personal information collected can be classified as follows: * Identifiers (such as an online identifier or an Internet Protocol (IP) address); * Internet or other electronic network activity information (such as the browsing history, search history, and information regarding to interaction with the Website or with advertiser clients’ Digital Properties); * Geolocation data inferences (excluding precise geolocation data); * contents of mail, email or text messages, solely where MediaMath is the intended recipient Categories of information collected pursuant to the Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut and Utah applicable State Privacy Laws: For the purposes of the applicable State Privacy Laws, the above-described personal information collected can be classified as follows: * Identifiers (such as an online identifier or an Internet Protocol (IP) address); * Internet or other electronic network activity information (such as the browsing history, search history, and information regarding to interaction with the Website or with advertiser clients’ Digital Properties); * Geolocation data inferences (excluding precise geolocation data). 3. HOW WE COLLECT PERSONAL DATA INTO THE PLATFORM We use various technologies to collect your personal data into the Platform. Like most digital marketing platforms, MediaMath collects personal data using cookies and other technologies that recognize browsers and devices. We use these technologies to collect the categories of personal data described above in Section 2. The technologies we use include: * Cookies – Cookies are small text files. MediaMath uses cookies to uniquely identify an Internet browser. Certain browsers or browser settings sometimes block cookies or prevent them from working effectively. * Pixels – Pixels are transparent images, iFrames, JavaScript or mobile SDKs that we, our advertiser clients, and our partners use to understand how users interact with their Digital Properties. We collect personal data into the Platform through other methods as well. The Platform contains Pixel Data, Other Client Data, Third-Party Segment Data, and Other Third Party Data that we receive through server- to-server transfers, Cookie Syncing (defined in Section 2) and other advertiser client and partner calls to MediaMath originating from the browser. 4. HOW WE USE PERSONAL DATA IN THE PLATFORM We use personal data in the Platform for the commercial purposes of delivering targeted ads to you on behalf of our advertiser clients. We use personal data for our business purposes to improve our Platform, our products and our services that we provide to our advertiser clients and partners, as well as to create new products and services. Below, we have set out a description of specific ways we use various combinations of your personal data in the Platform to fulfil our commercial interests to serve our advertiser clients, as well as to improve our products. Purpose/Activity Personal Data Type * Enabling MediaMath advertiser clients to create marketing campaigns; * Creating Segments; * Facilitating MediaMath advertiser clients’ creation of segments; * Making decisions related to the opportunity to display an ad (e.g., deciding which advertiser clients’ campaigns are a good match for a bid opportunity and what price to bid in each case) and placing the bid on behalf of our advertiser clients; * Setting, reading and modifying a MediaMath cookie or reading a mobile advertising identifier or OTT TV Device Identifier for Advertising; * Collecting information about a browser or device; * Facilitating our partners’ collection of personal data, including by placing partners’ pixels or tags on our advertiser clients’ Digital Properties; * Delivering ads, including ads based on your inferred interests or activities on Digital Properties; * Measuring the effectiveness of those ads and attributing your activities to our advertiser clients’ campaigns; * Generating and providing to advertiser clients reports and user-level data related to their advertising campaigns in the Platform; * Automated decision- making and profiling based on personal preferences, interests, behavior, or location; * Transferring data to a third party where advertiser clients have elected to use its services or where MediaMath has engaged a subcontractor to provide certain functionality or capabilities as a part of the Platform or to improve our Platform and the products and services that we provide to our advertiser clients and partners; and * Fraud detection and prevention. * MediaMath ID Inserted Cells * Bid Request and Impression Data * Pixel Data and Other Client Data * Third-Party Segment Data and Other Third-Party Data * Synchronizing MediaMath cookie ID with third- party partners (Cookie Syncing). * MediaMath ID * Impression Data * Pixel Data * Other Third-Party Data * Associating multiple browsers and devices with each other; * Development, maintenance, and commercialization of MediaMath’s cross- device graph that associates your different devices with each other; * Append audience membership to Client’s advertiser client’s first-party data. * MediaMath ID * Impression Data * Third-Party Segment Data and Other Third-Party Data * Pixel Data and Other Client Data * Mapping data pixels to third-party segments. * MediaMath ID * Pixel Data and Other Client Data * Third-Party Segment Data and Other Third- Party Data * Honoring opt-out requests for users who have opted out. * MediaMath ID * Enabling hyperlocal targeting of devices within a defined location. * Bid Request Data Reports We also publish or otherwise make public anonymous, aggregate, or summary information regarding campaigns run in the Platform on behalf of our advertiser clients. For example, we may publish a report that reflects aggregated statistics regarding seasonal trends in shopping patterns or geographic differences in advertising impression opportunities. These reports do not contain personal data. Automated decision-making and profiling Our Platform uses proprietary algorithms to make automated decisions about whether or not to bid on opportunities to serve you ads on behalf of our advertiser clients and, if so, how much to bid. The ads you see are the result of advertiser client campaigns that specify how much to spend and on what basis to spend combined with the use of our algorithms. The ways in which we use algorithms to determine bid prices may be considered automated decision-making in certain jurisdictions. Additionally, these processes, in combination with advertiser client campaigns described below, may constitute profiling in certain jurisdictions. These automated decisions use the MediaMath ID we assign to your browser or device. Using proprietary technology, we associate data that we collect from third parties with this MediaMath ID. We create Segments using inferred details about certain of your preferences, behaviors, and demographic information, and use those Segments to serve ads on behalf of our advertiser clients. For example, if you are browsing a shoe retailer’s website on your mobile device, we may infer that you are interested in buying sneakers and associate that mobile device with a sneaker-buyer Segment. If an advertiser client subsequently wants to advertise sneakers, the advertiser client may choose to target that Segment across your devices. If MediaMath then receives an opportunity to show you an ad, provided by an advertiser client, on your computer browser, which computer browser has been associated with your mobile device by our algorithm, MediaMath’s bidding technology will automatically decide whether to bid and if so what price to bid on behalf of our advertiser clients, based on the data and algorithms outlined above. Legal basis for processing (EEA and UK) Our legal basis under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR“) for processing the personal data in the Platform depends on the personal data concerned and the specific context in which we process it. However, we will normally collect personal data about you only where we have your consent or the processing is in our (or a third party’s, such as our advertiser clients’) legitimate interests and not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms. If we collect and use your personal data in reliance on our legitimate interests (or those of any third party), this interest will normally be to deliver you with ads through our technology (where we do not rely on your consent for such purposes), to measure ad performance, to develop and improve our products, to ensure appropriate security and to prevent and detect fraud in connection with our services. We may have other legitimate interests and, if appropriate, we will make clear to you at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are. If you have questions about or need further information concerning the legal basis on which we collect and use your personal data, please contact us using the contact details provided in Section 12 below. California Residents: CCPA sale/share of personal information For the purposes of the CCPA, MediaMath may disclose all of the categories of personal information collected on the Platform to the categories of third parties as described in Section 7 below, for purposes that may be considered a “sale” and/or “share” under the CCPA as amended by CPRA. We do not sell or share the personal information of minors under 16 years of age without affirmative authorization. Do Not Sell/Share My Personal Information: If you are a California resident and want to exercise your right to opt out of the sale/share of your personal information, please see complete the Access Request Form available. If you opt out of the sale/share of your personal information, MediaMath may still process your personal data to show you ads that are not personalized or otherwise provide certain services to advertiser clients that do not involve the sale or sharing of personal information under the CCPA. You can also opt out of the sale/share of your personal information here https://www.mediamath.com/privacy-policy/ccpa-optout/ Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) for California Residents: GPC is a technical specification for transmitting universal opt-out signals, also sometimes referred to as a universal opt-out mechanism, designed to allow you to notify businesses of your privacy preferences, such as whether or not you want your personal information to be sold or shared. It consists of a setting or extension in your browser or mobile device and acts as a mechanism that websites can use to indicate they support the specification. We are aware that various parties are developing GPCsignals, and we recognize such GPC signals in accordance with the requirements of the CCPA. GPC is a feature that you can enable on a number of internet browsers, including Mozilla Firefox, DuckDuckGo and Brave, or download as a browser extension. For information on how to enable GPC see https://globalprivacycontrol.org/faq Do Not Track Signals: Some web browsers have options that may be characterized as “do not track” settings, which may or may not affect your settings related to our Website. We do NOT understand them to operate in that manner or to signify a “do not sell/share” request made by a consumer under the CCPA. Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut and Utah Residents (State residents excluding California): If you are a state resident and want to exercise your right to opt out of the processing of your personal data for the purposes of targeted advertising, please see the Op-out and choice mechanisms below. If you opt out of the processing of your personal data for the purposes of targeted advertising, MediaMath may still process your personal data to show you ads that are not personalized or otherwise provide certain services to advertiser clients that do not involve the processing of your personal data for the purposes of targeted advertising under the applicable privacy laws for state residents excluding California. Opt-out and choice mechanisms Opt out of targeted advertising You may opt out from targeted advertising at any time through one of the ways described below. If you opt out of targeted advertising, you will still see ads, but those ads are less likely to have anything to do with products or services you care about. With targeted advertising, you receive ads and offers that are more likely to be useful to you. Your opt-out is only applicable to the Platform and does not opt you out from platforms provided by third-party companies. However, you can opt out from both MediaMath and many third-party companies at once; to do so, please see “Other ways to opt out of targeted advertising” below. When you opt out, MediaMath will collect data from your browser, app, or device only as needed to honor your opt-out and for limited research and development purposes to improve our browser- and device-recognition technology, which also helps to improve our ability to honor your opt-out. When you opt out, MediaMath also stops sending targeted advertising to the opted-out browser, app, or device. If you use multiple browsers or devices and wish to limit the data that MediaMath collects and do not wish to receive MediaMath targeted advertising on any of them, you must opt out from each browser and device individually, including when you enable GPC, which must be enabled from each browser and device individually. Opt out of targeted advertising in a browser You may opt out if you are using a browser by clicking the “Click here to opt out” link below. Please note that if cookies are not enabled in your browser, including if third-party cookies are disabled, or if you use certain ad-blocking tools, our opt-out mechanism may not work properly. Please also note that deleting your cookies does not opt you out. If you clear your cookies, or if you use a different browser or device, you will need to renew your opt-out choice. Opt this browser out of targeted advertising (if using a browser) Your current opt-out status with MediaMath in this web browser is: Opt out of targeted advertising in the mobile application environment You may opt out in mobile app environments using the “AppChoices” mobile application, where applicable, which you can download to your mobile device from your App Store or via the DAA AppChoices page here. Other ways to opt out of targeted advertising You may learn more about targeted advertising and opt out of targeted advertising from MediaMath and other online advertising companies that are also members of applicable self-regulatory organizations by visiting their opt-out links: * NAI (browser) – http://optout.networkadvertising.org/ * DAA (browser) – http://optout.aboutads.info/ * DAA Canada (browser) – http://youradchoices.ca/choices * EDAA (browser) – http://www.youronlinechoices.com/ * DAA AppChoices page (mobile) – http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices Other ways to limit ad tracking in the mobile and OTT TV device application environment You also may limit ad tracking in mobile app environments on your mobile device as well as on your OTT TV Device. For the most effective and up-to-date methods for doing so, you should consult instructions provided by those device manufacturers. The NAI provides additional information regarding opting out on mobile available here and TV streaming devices available here. Where MediaMath receives a signal to limit ad tracking, we will collect data from your device only as needed to honor your choice and for limited research and development purposes to improve our device-recognition technology, which also helps to improve our ability to honor your choice. Where MediaMath receives a signal to limit ad tracking, MediaMath also will not serve targeted advertising in the apps on your mobile device or OTT TV Device. 5.
