Third-party Advertisers, Links to Other Sites
Widgiland allows other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks,
to serve advertisements within the Widgiland Site. These third-party ad servers
or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser, the
advertisements and links that appear on the Widgiland Site. They automatically
receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use other technologies
(such as cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons) to measure the effectiveness of
their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content you see.
Widgiland does not provide any personally identifiable information to these
third-party ad servers or ad networks without your consent or except as part of
a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt-in or
opt-out. However, please note that if an advertiser asks Widgiland to show an
advertisement to a certain audience (for example, men ages 18-34) or audience
segment (for example, men ages 18-24 who have viewed certain channels of
content) and you respond to that advertisement, the advertiser or ad-server may
conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach.
The advertiser may also use information regarding your use of the Widgiland
Site, such as the number of times you viewed an ad (but not any personally
identifiable information), to determine which ads to deliver to you.
