Anonymity


"FAN and third parties may monitor advertisements placed on FAN Network Websites and use non-personally identifiable information obtained from cookies, web beacons, and/or other similar monitoring technologies for the purpose of reporting website traffic, data and statistics collection, advertisements, "click-throughs," to predict responses to advertisements and help determine the effectiveness and appropriateness of certain advertisements and content, to provide other services to FAN Network Websites, and/or for other activities. FAN also may use non-personally identifiable information in conjunction with other non-personally identifiable profile-based and interest-based information for these activities, including enhancement of FAN's customized advertising services. In addition, FAN may use non-personally identifiable information to help FAN and FAN Network Websites customize advertising and content and optimize the user experience for consumers on other third party publisher websites. FAN may use non-personally identifiable profile-based and interest-based information obtained from FAN Network Websites for these activities as well. FAN may also combine non-personally identifiable information with other non-personally identifiable information that FAN obtains from other sources."

Deletion


"For a period of time, FAN is required to retain certain non-personally identifiable information from all users in order to provide audited information to FAN Network Websites and auditors related to the number of ads served, and actions taken, as a result of FAN ad serving ('ad reporting and delivery data'). Log files that associate individual advertisements with a specific IP address will be retained by FAN for no longer than 15 months for internal analysis and ad reporting and delivery purposes. Certain aggregated non-personally identifiable information and attributes, including historical data obtained by FAN prior to an opt-out election and the fact that the user has opted out, continue to be associated with the user's cookie, regardless of opt-out state."

As an NAI member, this network also has agreed "to retain data collected and used for [advertising] activities only as long as necessary to fulfill a legitimate business need, or as required by law." (2008 NAI Principles)
