  • Patent number: 11363006
    Abstract: Systems and methods of matching identifiers between multiple datasets are described herein. A system can transmit a first identifier vector to a third party server. The first identifier vector can include a first identifier, first parameters, and second parameters. The system can receive, from the third party server, the first identifier vector encrypted based on a third-party encryption. The system can receive, from the third party server, a second identifier vector encrypted based on the third-party encryption associated with the third party server. The second identifier vector can include a second identifier, third parameters, and fourth parameters. The system can determine a correlation count between the first identifier vector and the second identifier vector. The system can determine that the first identifier corresponds to the second identifier based on the correlation count. The system can generate one identifier key for both the first identifier and the second identifier.

  • Patent number: 11055706
    Abstract: Aggregated transaction data from a transaction data provider may be encrypted and exchanged with a content item selection system using commutative encryption algorithms. The transaction data provider and content item selection system may utilize a set of common identifiers that are each encrypted using a respective commutative encryption algorithm of the transaction data provider or content item selection system. The other of the transaction data provider or content item selection system encrypts the single-encrypted common identifier using a respective commutative encryption algorithm to generate double encrypted common identifiers. The double encrypted common identifiers may be used to match a set of common identifiers with transaction data. The transaction data may be encrypted and/or may include random offset values.

  • Patent number: 10182042
    Abstract: Bridging encrypted datasets is provided. A system transmits, to a server, a first identifier vector encrypted with a first encryption that is commutative. The system receives an encrypted first identifier vector encrypted based on the first encryption and encrypted by a second encryption associated with the server. The system receives a second identifier vector encrypted based on the second encryption. The system encrypts the second identifier vector with the first encryption to generate an encrypted second identifier vector that is encrypted based on the second encryption and further encrypted based on the first encryption. The system determines a correlation count between the encrypted first identifier vector and the encrypted second identifier vector. The system generates one identifier key for both the first identifier and the second identifier. The system can provide the one identifier key for input into an application to process interactions.

  • Publication number: 20150356597
    Abstract: Example processes may include identifying online activity associated with content from a content provider; determining a first set of identification information, where the first set of identification information identifies users corresponding to the identified online activity associated with the content from the content provider; transmitting the first set of identification information to a first service and receiving, in return, a second set of different identification information; transmitting items of the second set of different identification information to a second different service and receiving, in return, aggregated offline transaction information corresponding to a set of transactions for users that are included in the second set of different identification information; attributing transactions indicated by the aggregated offline transaction information; and providing a report to the content provider that is based on the aggregated offline transaction information.
