At Smarketer, we value your privacy and are committed to safeguarding your personal information. This disclaimer aims to provide transparency regarding our use of Google Ads data for reporting purposes.
This Privacy Policy complies with the following data protection legislation:
We only process personal data that is necessary for providing our services to you.
The purposes of processing personal data are as follows:
Allowing registered users to use our tool via the website. We process data exclusively related to registered users who have been enrolled at the request of their employers or hiring parties (our corporate clients) to access our tools and services on behalf of their organizations. Our legal basis for processing their personal data is fulfilling contractual obligations to our corporate clients.
The following is an example of the types of personal data we process for "users":
If you are a visitor, we only gather data through cookies that enable us to remember you and ensure the delivery of high-quality website content. This does not involve processing personal data, and you remain anonymous to us.
We do not engage in automated processing of personal data, which refers to the use of algorithms or logic mechanisms for automated decision-making processes, including profiling activities.
Google Ads is an online advertising platform that allows businesses to display ads on Google's search engine and other websites. As part of our services, we utilize Google Ads to gather data related to customer's accounts.
The data obtained from Google Ads is used solely for generating reports and analytics to provide valuable insights to our end users. These reports assist in measuring the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, optimizing marketing strategies, and enhancing overall performance.
Please note the following important points regarding the use of Google Ads data:
Data Privacy: We handle all Google Ads data in accordance with applicable data protection laws and regulations. Your personal information collected through Google Ads is processed securely and confidentially.
Non-Identifiable Information: The data collected from Google Ads is aggregated and anonymized, meaning it is not personally identifiable. We do not access or store any information that directly identifies you as an individual.
Purpose of Data Usage: The data obtained from Google Ads is used solely for generating reports and analytics. It is not shared with third parties for commercial or advertising purposes.
Data Security: We have implemented robust security measures to protect your information. All data transfers between our systems and Google Ads are encrypted to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of the data.
Use of the app and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
