AdStash Information Practices: Information Collection
When you walk near or enter one of our partners’ locations with a Wi-Fi enabled mobile device, our Wi-Fi access points may detect the presence of that device and its Media Access Control Address (“MAC Address”). We refer to this information as “Visit Information”. The Visit Information is collected and processed as you move across partners that use our technology. We and/or our partners may aggregate the Visit Information into reports for us and/or our partners. If you object to us and/or our partners’ use of the Visit Information, please see http://linkett.com/ext/new/privacy.html to “opt-out”.
Information Use
The Visit Information is used to provide aggregated reports for our partners and for research to help us improve our products and develop new services. Our partners use the reports for a variety of purposes, such as:
- Measure traffic near a digital sign;
- Measure the effects of advertising;
- Generate relevant digital signage content;
