This TripleLift opt out page is intended to help you opt out of interest-based advertising from cookies, in mobile applications and across devices. This opt out page also provides instructions on how you can disable the collection of your precise location from your mobile device through mobile applications.
Please note that opting out of interest-based advertising does not mean that you will no longer receive online advertising. It does mean that the company from which you have opted out of receiving interest-based advertising will no longer deliver interest-based ads to you on a particular browser or device.
Opting Out of Interest-Based Advertising from Cookies
TripleLift adheres to the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) Self-Regulatory Principles in the US and to the European Digital Advertising Alliance (EDAA) Principles in the European Union (“EU”) and the IAB Europe OBA Framework.
The opt out tool is cookie based.
The TripleLift opt out tool is cookie-based. If you have cookies blocked, or have blocked cookies from TripleLift, the opt out tool will not work. The opt out tool sets a value in your TripleLift cookie that tells the TripleLift ad server to serve you any ad, rather than an interest-based advertisement. The opt out tool cannot set this value if you have no TripleLift cookie.
The opt out applies to the applicable browser.
When you opt out of receiving interest-based advertising from TripleLift, the opt out only applies to the applicable browser in which you set it.
Opt out mechanisms of third parties.
Some of our publisher clients and advertising partners have their own opt-out mechanisms that are linked from their websites or their online-posted privacy policies. You should review the privacy policies of those companies for these opt-out links if you no longer wish to receive targeted advertising from a particular company, or multiple companies.
Some third parties who use cookies when you visit our websites, also have opt out mechanisms either directly from their website or through an industry-developed web page. If you go to optout.aboutads.info or www.aboutads.info/choices, you can learn how to exercise choice regarding the collection of information about your online activities over time and across multiple third-party websites, online services, devices, and applications for interest-based advertising purposes.
