Our Privacy Policies and GDPR compliance

Blasto acknowledges its obligation to process and protect personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which has been applicable since 25 May 2018. These Privacy Policies are divided into two separate scopes. One scope applies to the processing of personal data in connection with Blasto’s Website and marketing communications. The second scope applies to the processing of personal data in connection with Blasto’s Services. Each scope explains how personal data is handled in the relevant context. 

These Privacy Policies describe the framework we use to safeguard personal data, including specific provisions relating to children.

In connection with Blasto’s Services, Blasto does not collect personal data directly from end users. Instead, personal data is collected by the websites, applications, or other first parties that you interact with and that use Blasto’s technology to deliver advertising.

Our Services 

Blasto provides advertising technology services that support the delivery of digital advertising. In this context, Blasto does not collect personal data directly from end users. Instead, personal data is collected by the websites, applications, and publishers with which users interact (“First Parties”) and is transmitted to Blasto through advertising technology integrations in order to enable the technical delivery of advertising.

Blasto processes this data solely to operate and provide its Services and does not use it to separately identify individuals.

How personal data reaches Blasto

Personal data processed through Blasto’s Services is received from:

  • publishers, apps, and websites,

  • Supply-Side Platforms (SSPs),

  • Demand-Side Platforms (DSPs),

  • and other advertising technology partners

These parties are responsible for:

  • collecting user consent and/or opt outs,

  • providing privacy notices,

  • and determining whether data may be shared with Blasto.

Blasto relies on these partners to transmit consent and privacy signals in accordance with applicable law.

We strongly recommend that you review the privacy policies of every website or application you use, as those policies explain how your data is collected, shared, and used in those environments.

Categories of personal data processed

  • operating system and version,

  • browser type,

  • Internet Service Provider,

  • IP address,

  • general location (e.g., country, city),

  • user-agent string.

Where latitude/longitude is included in a bid request by upstream parties, Blasto does not use or store it for its own purposes and processes it only as part of ad-delivery workflows.

  • device advertising IDs (e.g., IDFA, GAID),

Cookies and similar technologies

Blasto does not place cookies directly on end-user devices in connection with its Services. Cookies and similar identifiers used in advertising are placed and controlled by the websites, apps, or advertising platforms you interact with.

Some advertising partners may use cookie-matching or identifier-synchronization technologies to enable ad delivery across platforms. These processes are governed by the privacy policies and consent mechanisms of those parties.

Please refer to the privacy policies and cookie notices of the sites and apps you use for details about how cookies and similar technologies are used.

Why this data is necessary

On certain devices, you may also be able to limit or disable advertising-related preferences through your operating system settings (for example, by enabling advertising opt-out or ad-tracking limitations on your mobile device). Please refer to your device manufacturer or operating system provider for instructions specific to your device.

When Blasto receives a valid consent-withdrawal or opt-out signal through applicable frameworks or from its business partners, it will process that signal in accordance with applicable law and ensure that it is respected across the Services.
