Behavioral Advertising
Behavioral advertising is a term the Federal Trade Commission uses to refer to tracking of a consumer’s Web search and browsing activities. By tracking the person or a particular Internet device – e.g., a Web-enabled cell phone or a computer – a distinct profile of a customer’s online behavior is created. The profile is then used to deliver targeted advertising content.
