Your Privacy Choices on Yahoo and Its Family of Brands
Protecting your privacy is a priority for us at Yahoo and its affiliated brands, including popular sites and applications such as Yahoo and Engadget, as well as our digital advertising service, Yahoo Advertising. This article explains how we use cookies and other technologies, what types of data we collect, and how you can manage your privacy preferences.
Use of Cookies and Similar Technologies
When you access our websites and applications, we use cookies and technologies like web storage to store and read information on your device. Cookies help us provide you with our services, authenticate users, implement security measures, and prevent spam and abuse.
Measurement and Analytics
We also gather aggregated data about the number of visitors, the devices they use (such as iOS or Android), browsers, and the duration of visits. Importantly, this information is collected in a way that does not identify individual users, helping us understand and improve your experience on our platforms.
Your Privacy Options
By choosing "Accept All," you consent to Yahoo and its partners—including over 245 entities participating in the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework—storing and accessing cookies on your device. This may include the use of precise geolocation data and technical identifiers, such as browser cookies, device IDs, and IP addresses. These identifiers can sometimes be derived from encrypted email addresses or through statistical combinations with other identifiers. The collected data is used for purposes including analytics, personalized advertising and content, advertising measurement, audience research, and service development.
If you prefer to restrict the use of cookies and personal data for these additional purposes, select "Reject All." For a more tailored approach, you can click on "Manage Privacy Settings" to customize your preferences.
