Opting Out of Interest-Based Advertising

At Bidfuse, we respect your privacy choices and are committed to providing transparency around how personalized ads are delivered. You can choose to opt out of receiving ads that are tailored to your interests across various platforms and devices.

General Interest-Based Advertising Opt-Out

Bidfuse uses signals such as the websites you visit, mobile apps you use, and your engagement with ads to infer your interests and display more relevant advertising. For example, if you regularly engage with travel-related apps or content, you may be shown more ads for travel offers or related services.

Importantly, Bidfuse does not collect personal identifiers like your name or contact details. All processing is in line with our Privacy Policy, which outlines how we manage and safeguard your data.
