We typically collect account information such as username and password, device identifiers, usage information as it relates to glitches, bugs, or Content security issues, and the preferences you select for these purposes.</li>
<li>
<strong>To show adverts and Content recommendations that are more relevant to your interests: </strong>for example, we use tracking technologies to remember Content that has interested you, to make Content recommendations and tailor Content, and then use this to help us serve more relevant ads to you, including when you are on another site.
Tracking technologies also help limit the number of times that you see an ad, measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and help us and others track whether ads have been properly displayed.
We typically collect contact information, device identifiers such as IP address, and usage information such as your ad interactions, browsing history, and viewing history for this purpose.
<p>We also allow other organizations to use tracking technologies for these advertising purposes.
