A user is defined as a browser of a specific device; the terms user and browser can be used interchangeably; if the owner of a device uses several browsers, he must repeat the privacy setting configuration for all of them.

Use of data collected in advertising

HyperTV, through its "Connected Stories" platform, allows the creation of online advertising messages based on single or multiple displays. These are provided to users according to sequences called "user's journey". HyperTV collects information through tracking cookies, or similar technologies, resident on the user's browser. These technologies allow the browser to be recognised, in order to provide it with the correct element of the sequence. Tracking cookies expire after 12 months.

HyperTV does not allow the collection or storage of any kind of sensitive data including IP address. Data that is not sensitive, but that could be used to identify an individual, such as an address, telephone number or email address, is neither collected nor stored.

When using the collected data, HyperTV complies with applicable laws as EU Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and standards as those issued by Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) and IAB Europe.
