Title: New Safari feature blocks purchase-tracking by ad clicks Post by: HCK on May 26, 2019, 04:05:14 pm New Safari feature blocks purchase-tracking by ad clicks
<article> <section class="page"> <p>Apple <a href="https://webkit.org/blog/8943/privacy-preserving-ad-click-attribution-for-the-web/" rel="nofollow">added a new anti-tracking feature to Safari[/url] that prevents one-to-one tracking of users who click an ad on one site and make a purchase on another, unrelated site. Instead, the connection will be blurred so that an advertiser can only track the total impact of a small number of different ads over short periods of time.</p><p>The new approach, called Privacy Preserving Ad Click Attribution, rolled out in the <a href="https://developer.apple.com/safari/technology-preview/" rel="nofollow">Safari Technology Preview[/url] today (version 82), and Apple said that it will appear in general release versions of Safari later in 2019.
