摘要： Non-limiting, non-exclusive aspects of the present disclosure relate to determining the user group to which an application is directed, and the level of user group privacy risks associated with the application. In particular, the disclosed technology receives, detects and processes application information, determines if the application is directed at a group of users (e.g., children), and, if the application is indeed directed at the target user group, the disclosed technology generates a user group privacy risk level derived from application information signals. Application information signals may include a determination of whether the application requires permissions that enable access to or capture of personal information from or related to the application's users such as residential end-user IP address or precise location information. The privacy risk assessment may be based on signals associated with applicable privacy regulations (e.g., the rule implementing the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)).

摘要： Embodiments disclosed herein relate to systems, devices, and methods for determining the Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) address and the Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) address of a purported end user device to use for detection and filtering of invalid traffic (IVT). In an exemplary embodiment, a method comprises receiving, at a domain only supporting IPv4, a request from the purported end user device over a network, wherein the purported end user device comprises an IPv6 address and an IPv4 address. The method further comprises redirecting, by the domain only supporting IPv4, the request to a domain supporting IPv6. The method further comprises measuring ad traffic and/or performing user tracking using the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and fulfilling the request from the purported end user device.
