PartsFinderOman.com is committed to transparency in all aspects of its operations, including how we use third-party advertising services on our website. This Advertising Policy explains how advertisements are displayed on our site, which advertising partners we work with, how user data may be used for advertising purposes, and how you can manage your advertising preferences.
By using PartsFinderOman.com, you acknowledge that advertisements may be displayed during your visit and that certain cookies and tracking technologies are used to serve these advertisements, as described below.
1. Google AdSense
What is Google AdSense?
Google AdSense is an advertising programme operated by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). It enables website publishers to earn revenue by displaying targeted advertisements to their visitors. PartsFinderOman.com participates in Google AdSense to help support the free services we provide.
1.1 How Google AdSense Works on PartsFinderOman.com
When you visit our website, Google AdSense may:
- Display text, image, video, or interactive advertisements on pages across our site.
- Use cookies and similar tracking technologies to identify your browser and device.
- Collect information about your browsing behaviour on our site and across other websites.
- Use that information to show you advertisements that are relevant to your interests.
- Track whether you click on an advertisement and measure ad performance.
1.2 DoubleClick Cookie & Advertising Identifiers
Google AdSense uses the DoubleClick cookie and other advertising identifiers to:
- Serve personalised advertisements based on your previous visits to PartsFinderOman.com and other websites.
- Limit the number of times you see the same advertisement.
- Measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
- Prevent fraudulent clicks and ensure advertisers receive genuine traffic.
The DoubleClick cookie is set by Google, not by PartsFinderOman.com. We do not control the data Google collects through this cookie.
