Patent number: 10938860Abstract: Preserving privacy related to networked media consumption activity. Privacy zones are defined and associated with privacy standards. Privacy standards include frequency criteria governing the storage of datasets including information associated with networked media consumption activity collected from the privacy zone. Transaction requests are received over a network from a client device at a location by a networked privacy system. The privacy zone associated with the client device is identified. A dataset can be created including information associating the networked media consumption activity. The dataset is processed to comply with the privacy standards. The processed dataset can be stored in a database on a physical storage device at a storage location coupled to the networked privacy system.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2019Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: Quantcast CorporationInventor: Damian John Reeves

Patent number: 10440061Abstract: Preserving privacy related to networked media consumption activity. Source privacy zones are defined and associated with privacy standards Privacy standards include frequency criteria governing the storage of datasets including information associated with networked media consumption activity collected from the source privacy zone. Transaction requests including a networking protocol address are received over a network from a client device at a target location by a networked privacy system. The source privacy zone associated with the client device is identified. Using the networking protocol address to access characteristics having characteristic value(s), a dataset can be created including associating the networked media consumption activity with the characteristic and characteristic value(s). The dataset is pre-processed to comply with the privacy standards. The networking protocol address is discarded.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2018Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: Quantcast CorporationInventor: Damian John Reeves
