So, if someone is not allowed to see what is on my computer how am I being advertised things on various web sites that have no relation to each other that I looked at elsewhere?
Example: I look up information on rail tickets in Italy. Next day I go to gaming web site and a banner add for rail tickets in Italy shows up.
If it's a cookie, on my computer, then the advertiser is gathering information FROM my computer... which I thought is a no-no.
The only possible legal way I can think of is if the Italy site tracked my IP, then immediately made it available to advertisers...
Anyone know how that stuff works?
