How cookies are used on Yodayo

Cookies and similar technologies like pixels and local storage provide you with a better, faster, and safer experience on our platform. Cookies are also used to operate our services, which include our websites, applications, APIs, pixels, embeds, and email communications. Specifically, we use these technologies to:

  • Keep you logged in to Yodayo.

  • Deliver features and functionality of Yodayo services.

  • Save and honor your preferences.

  • Understand how you interact with our services and where we can improve.

  • Measure the effectiveness of our advertising and marketing.

  • Rate how our services perform and identify bugs and other quality issues.

  • Gather data used to operate our business — from measuring our audience size to enforcing the Terms of Service

What are cookies, pixels, and local storage?

Cookies are small files placed on your computer as you browse the web or use a web-enabled app. We use cookies to operate our services, discover how people use our services, understand how to make them work better and more. See above for more examples of how we use cookies.

Pixels are small amounts of code placed on a web page, in a web-enabled app, or an email. We use pixels, some of which we provide to advertisers to place on their web properties, to learn whether you've interacted with specific web or email content — as many services do. This helps us measure the effectiveness of our advertising and marketing.

We use local storage to save data on your computer or mobile device. We use data from local storage to turn on web navigation, maintain video player preferences, customize what we show you based on your past interactions with our services, remember your preferences, and measure ad effectiveness. We may also use local storage on other websites, where necessary to provide you certain features, to obtain information about your visits to those sites.

Why do our services use these technologies?

Cookies, pixels, and local storage work to operate and support our business, and to help provide you with an improved experience. They're used across the following categories:

  • Authentication and security

  • Functionality

  • User preferences

  • Analytics

  • Research and development

  • Advertising

  • Marketing

  • Personalization across devices

Within each of these categories, cookies, pixels, and local storage help us:

Personalization across devices

Understand which devices you used so that we can personalize your experience on all of your devices.

Keep in mind, if you ever log in to Yodayo with your device, we associate and will continue to associate that device with your account. This means whether or not you're logged in, we'll receive information about your device(s) when information is shared by a partner, you visit Yodayo.com or third-party websites that integrate our services, or you visit a Yodayo advertiser's website or mobile application. Most commonly, IP addresses and the time we receive the data which are used to link that specific device with you.

Where are these technologies used?

We (along with third parties) use these technologies on Yodayo services, which includes our websites, applications, and services and on other websites, applications, and services that have integrated Yodayo services, including third-party properties that incorporate our advertising technology. This includes our ad partners’ websites and sites that use our embeds, including embedded timelines. Third parties may also use these technologies, for example, when you click on links from Yodayo services, view or interact with third-party content in Yodayo services, or visit third-party websites that incorporate our advertising technology.
