Introduction to AppLovin
AppLovin operates a suite of marketing solutions that enable advertisers to automate, optimize, and manage their marketing efforts across a broad range of digital properties, including mobile apps, websites, and connected TVs. Axon AI, AppLovin's AI-powered advertising recommendation engine, powers these solutions by making predictions about the users most likely to engage with advertisers' products or services and serving ads to those users. If publishers decide to show ads on their properties, AppLovin may help serve those ads to you on behalf of advertisers.
How AppLovin's Axon AI Shows You Ads
To help serve you relevant and interesting ads (often called interest-based advertising), Axon AI uses device information and other information we have collected about your engagement with apps, websites, ads, and other digital properties, as described in our Privacy Policy.
AppLovin showed you this ad or content on behalf of the advertiser whose ad you clicked on based on factors like:
- Device make, model, hardware, and operating system;
- Device properties related to screen, display, size, orientation, audio, video, battery, memory usage, settings, and boot time;
- Device settings related to accessibility features and font size;
- Carrier;
- Name, properties, performance, session information, and installation information of the mobile application through which you interact with the Services;
- Country, time zone, and locale settings (including preferred language);
- Network connection type and speed;
- IP Address;
- Internet browser user-agent and software environment used to access the Services;
- HTTP header and request information;
- Advertising IDs or User IDs (e.g., IDFA/GAID);
- Vendor IDs (IDFV);
- App Set IDs;
- Browsing behavior and search and purchasing histories;
- Previous interactions with ads served by AppLovin, with our advertising partners, or merchant partners' websites and advertisements;
- Email address, phone number, and 5-digit zip code (if provided by an e-commerce platform).
