Readpeak provides a digital advertising technology platform that is used by advertisers to buy advertising space on websites, mobile applications (browser and in-app) and similar online media sites. The buying is done via automated bidding on the platform. The platform and related online advertising technology services offered by Readpeak aim at helping advertisers deliver more relevant ads to customers and reduce the advertising pressure. This includes matching advertisers with audiences whose interests are relevant to the advertiser’s ad campaigns. The services also comprise other functionalities, such as capability to measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns by collecting and analyzing data of displayed ads, to prevent fraudulent activities and malware, and to predict the coverage of ads.
As part of the services, Readpeak tracks on an anonymous basis end users’ interactions with client advertisements and with client websites such as how many times advertisements are clicked or viewed. This tracking is carried out through Readpeak’s platform as well as on our clients’ website. As part of the tracking process on Readpeak’s platform, no personal data is collected except for IP addresses and cookie IDs. IP addresses and cookie IDs cannot be directly connected to an identifiable individual. Readpeak does not collect or processes data that would be required for identifying the individuals behind an IP address or cookie ID. Also no sensitive data is collected.
Readpeak’s tracking technology may employ tracking pixels on clients’ sites as well as data feeds from client or from third parties. A tracking pixel is a piece of code embedded on a web page of client sites that collects information about visitors’ behavior on that web page, such as the URLs the visitor has visited. The tracking pixel can either be provided by Readpeak or by our technology partners. The tracking pixel may include a command to create a Readpeak cookie.
A cookie is a small text file that can be stored on a user’s browser and that enables tracking activity from a browser. Readpeak may serve ads based on the websites and apps a user has visited or based on ads a user has clicked. You can read more in our Cookie Policy.
Readpeak may also conduct cookie syncing with third-party platforms such as Google, Xandr, or Taboola.

The purpose of cookie syncing is to serve targeted and tailored ads and to evaluate the performance of advertising campaigns run through the Readpeak platform.
