Legitimate Interest Disclosure

​

Discover-Tech Ltd.

Last Updated: October 9, 2026

​

1. Introduction

Discover-Tech Ltd. ("Discover-Tech", "we", "us" or "our") participates in the IAB Europe Transparency & Consent Framework (TCF) as Vendor ID 778.

This disclosure explains the legitimate interests pursued by Discover-Tech in connection with certain technical processing activities associated with digital advertising.

Discover-Tech relies on legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), where applicable, for the processing described below.

Our declared TCF legitimate-interest activities are limited to:

  • Special Purpose 1 – Ensure Security, Prevent and Detect Fraud, and Fix Errors.

  • Special Purpose 2 – Deliver and Present Advertising and Content.

For TCF Purposes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7, Discover-Tech declares consent as its legal basis, rather than legitimate interests.

​

2. Special Purpose 1 – Ensure Security, Prevent and Detect Fraud, and Fix Errors

Discover-Tech processes technical information where necessary to protect the security, reliability and integrity of its advertising systems and transactions.

This may include:

  • Advertising request and transaction identifiers.

  • Timestamps and technical event information.

  • IP addresses and network-related indicators.

  • Device and browser characteristics.

  • Technical logs and error information.

  • Information relevant to detecting bots, invalid traffic or fraudulent activity.

This processing is used to:

  • Detect and prevent advertising fraud.

  • Identify bots and invalid traffic.

  • Protect advertising infrastructure and related systems.

  • Investigate technical errors and security incidents.

  • Maintain the integrity and reliability of advertising transactions.

Our legitimate interest is to protect our services, advertising partners and related systems against fraud, abuse, security threats and technical failures.

The processing is limited to information reasonably necessary for these purposes.

​

3. Special Purpose 2 – Deliver and Present Advertising and Content

Discover-Tech processes certain technical information necessary to support the delivery and presentation of advertisements through its DSP and programmatic advertising integrations.

This may include technical advertising delivery information, transaction-related signals and information necessary to identify and resolve advertising delivery problems.

The processing supports:

  • Technical delivery and presentation of advertisements.

  • Operation and reliability of advertising delivery processes.

  • Identification and resolution of advertising delivery errors.

Our legitimate interest is to support the technical delivery of advertising and maintain the reliability and functionality of the advertising delivery process.

Special Purpose 2 is not used as an alternative legal basis for creating advertising profiles, selecting personalised advertising or storing or accessing information on a user's device where consent is required.

​

4. Legitimate Interest Assessments

Discover-Tech has conducted Legitimate Interest Assessments for the processing associated with Special Purposes 1 and 2.

These assessments consider:

  • The legitimate interests pursued by Discover-Tech.

  • The necessity of the relevant processing.

  • The nature and scope of the personal data involved.

  • The reasonable expectations and privacy interests of individuals.

  • The potential impact on individuals' rights and freedoms.

  • Appropriate safeguards and limitations on processing.

The assessments concluded that the legitimate interests pursued are not overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the individuals concerned, taking into account the nature and scope of the processing and the applicable safeguards.

We review our processing activities and relevant compliance requirements periodically and when material changes occur.

​

5. Relationship to Consent-Based Advertising

Discover-Tech separately processes personal data for certain advertising purposes based on consent.

These include the TCF purposes declared in our registration:

  • Purpose 1 – Store and/or Access Information on a Device.

  • Purpose 2 – Use Limited Data to Select Advertising.

  • Purpose 3 – Create Profiles for Personalised Advertising.

  • Purpose 4 – Use Profiles to Select Personalised Advertising.

  • Purpose 7 – Measure Advertising Performance.

Our legitimate-interest processing for Special Purposes 1 and 2 does not replace consent required for these activities.

In particular, Discover-Tech's separate client-side remarketing pixel checks the current consent information supplied by the publisher's Consent Management Platform (CMP) before performing consent-dependent identifier storage, access or synchronisation.

The remarketing pixel is technically and operationally separate from our DSP/OpenRTB operations and is not currently used in active client remarketing campaigns.

​

6. Data Retention

Discover-Tech's declared retention period for processing associated with Special Purposes 1 and 2 is up to 93 days, subject to applicable legal requirements.

We limit the processing and retention of personal data to what is necessary for the relevant purposes.

​

7. International Data Transfers

Certain technical and advertising-related personal data is stored or processed using Discover-Tech's AWS infrastructure in the United States.

Where applicable, international transfers are subject to appropriate data protection safeguards, including applicable Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).

Further details are available in our Privacy Policy.

​

8. Your Right to Object

Under Article 21 of the GDPR, individuals have the right to object to processing of their personal data based on legitimate interests.

Where an objection applies, Discover-Tech will cease the relevant processing unless there are compelling legitimate grounds that override the individual's interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Individuals may also exercise other applicable data protection rights, including access, correction, erasure and restriction of processing.
