  • Patent number: 11159573
    Abstract: Selective regulation of information transmission from mobile applications to an external system. A privacy policy is configured for and mapped to each of a multiplicity of mobile application concerns, with each privacy policy comprising rules regulating the transmission of information to an external system. Instrumentation instructions can be integrated with a mobile application or mobile operating system. The instrumentation instructions direct the mobile device to submit a privacy policy request comprising an identifier from the mobile device to a third-party privacy compliance system and enable sending information from the mobile device to the external system, subject to the privacy policy. The privacy policy request is received at the third-party privacy compliance system which selects the privacy policy based on an identifier and sends the privacy policy to the mobile device for implementation.

  • Patent number: 10922615
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention build models to predict the likelihood of entities that operate in a given identifier space also operating in a disjoined identifier space based on a source panel of entities that operate in one or both of the identifier spaces. In operation, a model building engine builds a model based on features associated with the source panel and features associated with standard populations in the given identifier space. The model is used to determine whether the target entity is more similar to those entities in the source panel that operate only in the given identifier space or those entities in the source panel that operate in both identifier spaces.

  • Patent number: 10248961
    Abstract: Models are built based on existing histories in one identifier space to infer features of entities in a different identifier space. A source model is built using features of an archetypical population in a given identifier space and the standard population. A join panel, i.e., a set of entities operating across both the given identifier space and a second disjoined identifier space, is scored using the source model. Based on the scores and features associated with the entities in the join panel within the second identifier space, a target model specific to the second identifier space is built. An audience of entities within the second identifier space can then be scored using the target model to identify entities that are similar to the archetypical population.
