Tredio is committed to protecting your privacy and treating your personal information with transparency, care, and respect.

This Privacy Policy (Policy) explains how we collect, use, and share (collectively, Access) your personal information, personal data, or the equivalent terminology in your region (collectively, Data). For reference, Data refers to any information that may directly or indirectly identify you. The Policy also explains how you can exercise your rights under applicable data protection and privacy laws, including data protection and privacy laws in California, Europe, and Brazil.

Any reference in this Policy to “Tredio”, “we”, or “our” refers to Coresibo Ltd. dba Tredio., and its direct and indirect global subsidiaries.

  1. ABOUT US

Tredio is a global digital advertising platform. Our technology (the Tredio player and exchange) helps our clients deliver advertising to you. The Tredio Platform hosts digital auctions that help our clients buy and sell online ads (collectively, our Platform Services). These ads can be found on websites, mobile applications (apps), or video programming services, such as streaming apps on Smart TVs (collectively, Digital Properties).

As with any exchange platform, we act as an intermediary between buyers and sellers. Throughout this Policy, we refer to our clients that sell ad space as Publishers. Publishers own or operate the Digital Properties you may use or visit. We refer to clients that buy ad space (e.g., advertisers) as Buyers. Buyers may include Demand-Side Platforms (DSP), Data Management Platforms (DMPs) and other partners (collectively, Demand-Side Partners). Demand-Side Partners act as additional intermediaries in the digital advertising supply chain that connect advertisers to Tredio to serve relevant ads to you on the Publisher Digital Properties you visit. Demand-Side Partners liaise with other Buyers, which also include advertisers (e.g., brands), advertising agencies, and ad networks (collectively, Ad Partners). In summary, Tredio and Demand-Side Partners act as intermediaries that connect Ad Partners with Publishers to deliver relevant digital ads to you.

This Policy describes Tredio’s Data practices. It does not apply to information or Data collected by third parties, including those of Publishers or Buyers. We recommend that you consult the privacy policies of the Digital Properties you use in order to become familiar with their privacy practices.

Please note, Sections 1-10 of this Policy provide information about the Data we Access in the provision of our Platform Services to our clients. For information on our corporate Data collection practices, please refer to our Corporate and Careers Privacy Policy under Section 11.

We recommend that you read this Policy in full.
