3. Advertising
As explained in the “Advertisers and Analytics Providers” section of our Privacy Notice, Candle shares limited information to help ensure you receive more useful and relevant ads and to measure their effectiveness.

We do not serve cross-context behavioral ads to teens under 18 years old unless they opt in.
