Ad networks allow us to target our messaging to users considering demographic data, users’ inferred interests and browsing context. These networks track users’ online activities over time by collecting information through automated means, including using browser cookies, Flash cookies, web beacons, device identifiers, server logs, web beacons and other similar technologies.
