Advertising Cookies

If Google AdSense or other advertising services are enabled on VidGap, advertising providers may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, local storage, or similar technologies to deliver, measure, and improve advertisements.

Google states that AdSense may send cookies to a user’s browser when a page displays Google advertisements or includes certain Google ad tags. Google also requires publishers to clearly disclose their use of cookies in their privacy policies.

Third-party advertising providers, including Google, may use cookies or similar technologies to serve advertisements based on a user’s previous visits to this or other websites.

6. Google AdSense and Advertising

VidGap may use Google AdSense to display advertisements on the website.

Google and its advertising partners may collect or receive certain information through cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, local storage, or similar technologies when advertisements are displayed or interacted with.

Depending on the user’s location, applicable law, consent choices, and advertising settings, VidGap may display personalized or non-personalized advertisements.

Personalized advertising may use information associated with a user’s previous activity to make advertisements more relevant.

Users can manage certain Google advertising personalization settings through Google Ads Settings.

8. Consent and Privacy Choices

Privacy and advertising requirements vary depending on a visitor’s location.

For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, Google requires publishers using its advertising products to obtain appropriate consent for cookies or local storage where legally required and for the collection, sharing, and use of personal information for personalized advertising.

Where required, VidGap may use a consent management platform or Google-provided privacy and consent tools to allow visitors to make choices regarding cookies, advertising, and related technologies.

Google currently requires a Google-certified consent management platform integrated with the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework when publishers serve personalized ads to users in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland.

The consent options presented to visitors may vary depending on their location and the services enabled on VidGap.
