Ad Preferences

Why are you seeing this page?

You tapped the transparency icon on a Black C advertisement, or you came here directly. This page explains which criteria were used to show you the ad and how you can change them.

Who we are

Black C Media is the trading name of Grup C Medya Hizmetleri A.Ş., an advertising technology company that plans and delivers digital advertising for brands using location-based data. Address: Esentepe Mah. Talatpaşa Cad. No:5, 34394 Şişli / Istanbul, Türkiye.

What is targeted advertising?

It means an ad is shown to groups of people with certain characteristics rather than to everyone. The ad you saw may have been selected using one or more of the criteria below.

Criteria we use

  • Geographic location: The city, district or region you are in.
  • Location-behaviour interest segments: Grouped interest segments derived from a device having visited certain types of places in the past (for example shopping malls, store categories, airports). These segments describe groups of devices with similar behaviour, not individuals.
  • Device and context: Device type, operating system, time of day, and the general category of the app or site in use.

What we do not use

  • Your name, phone number, email address or any information that directly identifies you.
  • Places linked to sensitive categories such as health, religion or political opinion (for example hospitals or places of worship) are never used for targeting.
  • Users who are known, or can reasonably be assumed, to be under 18 are never targeted.

How to change your preferences

1. On your device (most effective)

  • iPhone / iPad: Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking → turn off “Allow Apps to Request to Track”. You can also go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Apple Advertising → turn off “Personalised Ads”.
  • Android: Settings → Google → Ads → “Delete advertising ID” or “Opt out of Ads Personalisation”. These settings reset or delete your device’s advertising ID; because location-behaviour segments are tied to that ID, targeting stops.

2. App location permissions

Set location access for the apps you use to “While Using” or “Never” to limit location data collection.

3. Industry-wide opt-out

Use the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out page to opt out of interest-based advertising from all DAA member companies.

4. Through our data partner

Location-based segments are provided by our data partner Azira. You can also opt out on Azira’s own preference page: azira.com/privacy-policy

Ads shown using these segments are served on Beeswax ad-serving infrastructure. Beeswax’s privacy and opt-out page: beeswax.com/privacy_summary

What happens after you change your preferences?

You will still see ads, but they will no longer be selected using the criteria above. Depending on your device and app settings, the change can take a few hours to apply.
