THIRD PARTY ADVERTISERS, LINKS TO OTHER SITES
Beautiful Stranger.TV allows other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks,
to serve advertisements within the Beautiful Stranger.TV Sites. These third-party ad
servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser, the advertisements
and links that appear on the Beautiful Stranger.TV Sites. They automatically receive
your IP address when this happens. They may also use other technologies (such as
cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons) to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements
and to personalize the advertising content you see. Beautiful Stranger.TV does not
provide any personally identifiable information to these third-party ad servers
or ad networks without your consent or except as part of a specific program or feature
for which you will have the ability to opt-in or opt-out. However, please note that
if an advertiser asks Beautiful Stranger.TV to show an advertisement to a certain audience
(for example, women ages 18-34) or audience segment (for example, women ages 18-24
who have viewed certain channels of content) and you respond to that advertisement,
the advertiser or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience
they are trying to reach. The advertiser may also use information regarding your
use of the Beautiful Stranger.TV Sites; such as the number of times you viewed an ad
(but not any personally identifiable information), to determine which ads to deliver
to you. You should consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party
ad servers or ad networks (see links below) for more information on their practices
and for instructions on how to opt-out of certain practices. Beautiful Stranger
privacy policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, such
other advertisers or web sites.
