This podcast may use tracking and attribution and dynamic content insertion
Stats: Statistics are produced by RedCircle and Podscribe to help Smashing Security to understand how many downloads it is getting, or how many people are listening. Your device’s IP address and user agent is used to help calculate this figure. Here is more detail about podcast statistics.
Tracking and attribution: RedCircle and Podscribe or their partners may connect the fact you listened to this podcast to an action elsewhere on the internet. For example - they may spot a device that downloaded an episode of Smashing Security later visited the website of an advertiser; or they may track that a device that listened to Smashing Security also listened to a different show. This form of attribution is used to measure advertising effectiveness.
Dynamic content insertion: RedCircle may use limited data that they know about you - the device you’re using, the approximate location you’re in, or other data that can be derived from this, like the current weather forecast for your area - to change parts of the audio. Smashing Security may do this for advertising or for other forms of content, like news stories.
Smashing Security is able to use the above tools since its podcast host or measurement company offers this service. It doesn’t mean that this individual podcast uses them, or has access to this functionality. We use open data.
