What an IP address is

An IP address, or an Internet Protocol address, is a unique number given to each device on the internet. Think of it as a return address: similarly, it is used so that computers can know where to send requested information. It ties all traffic to a specific device, location, and, essentially, a user. And it also is a basis of IP targeting.

Many websites and services nowadays track and store data related to your activities and location. All the analytics they gather are used to better targeted-ad campaigns.

How a targeted ad works

  1. To start with, search engines, social networks, and other sites that place ads on their pages make money per user clicking on ads.
  2. After that, advertising providers specify what kind of demographic they want to reach. 
  3. Then, ad campaign managers use the data supplied by search engines, social networks, and other web services to target the ads so that they’d click with and be clicked by people of a specific demographic.

Ad companies use special algorithms that analyze your visits across different websites, gather your search history, use your cookies, and track your location using an IP address (specifically called geo-targeting).

Targeting works both ways. It may be somewhat beneficial, for it, indeed, can show you something that falls in a scope of your interest. But then, like everything, it comes at a price. And the price is your online privacy or lack thereof. The abundance of personal data that constitutes a user’s profile used for targeting will be if requested, given out to government officials in short order, for most countries have laws that force data aggregators to do so.

If you don’t fancy such a privacy invasion, you should opt to lessen the amount of data available to marketers. Two of the most crucial and easily protected-against aspects of targeted advertising are IP targeting and cookie analysis. Be sure to always clear your cookies (or restrict them altogether) and use a VPN to change your IP address and further disturb marketers’ aim.
