make available to us when you interact with our Platform, content, or services. Interest-based
ads, also sometimes referred to as personalised or targeted ads, are displayed to you based on
information from activities such as subscription on our Platform, visiting sites that contain
Greenchalk content or ads. In providing interest-based ads, we follow applicable laws, as well
as the Code for Self-Regulation in Advertising by the Advertising Standards Council of India and
the Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising developed by the Digital
Advertising Alliance (a coalition of marketing, online advertising, and consumer advocacy
organizations).
Like other online ad networks, we use cookies, web beacons (also known as action tags or single-pixel gifs),
and other technologies (collectively, "cookies"). Cookies enable us to learn about what ads you see,
what ads you click, and other actions you take on our sites and other sites. This allows us to provide
you with more useful and relevant ads. For example, if we know what ads you are shown we can be careful
not to show you the same ones repeatedly. We do not associate your interaction with unaffiliated sites
with your identity in providing you with interest-based ads.
We do not provide any personal information to advertisers or to third party sites that display our
interest-based ads. However, advertisers and other third-parties (including the ad networks,
ad-serving companies, and other service providers they may use) may assume that users who
interact with or click on a personalised ad or content are part of the group that the ad or content
is directed towards (for example, users in eastern India who bought or browsed for literature
books). Also, some third-parties may provide us information about you (such as the sites where
you have been shown ads or demographic information) from offline and online sources that we
may use to provide you more relevant and useful advertising.

that appear on our sites directly to your browser. They automatically receive your IP address
when this happens. They may also use cookies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to
personalise ad content. We do not have access to or control over cookies or other features that
advertisers and third party sites may use, and the information practices of these advertisers and
third party websites are not covered by our Policy. Please contact them directly for more
