Patent number: 11776010Abstract: Protected audience selection system. Media consumption histories of browsers which have converted are received at a modeling system where targeting of browsers is prohibited. A model is built by determining a frequency of each respective media consumption event among the histories and comparing each determined frequency of a respective media consumption event to a frequency of the respective media consumption event among a population of browsers without the conversion event. The model is sent to a targeting system which excludes conversion events. A description of the conversion event is received at the targeting system. A history of a targetable browser is received at the targeting system. The model is applied to the history of the targetable browser at the targeting system, where conversion events have been excluded from the history. Advertising content is sent to the targetable browser according to a result of applying the model.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2022Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: Quantcast CorporationInventors: Konrad S.
