A method for sending information includes: acquiring an identifier of an APP, the APP being an application having an APP unlock interface; inquiring for information corresponding to the identifier of the APP, the information being information to be promoted and designated by an information promoter with respect to the APP; and sending the information to a target terminal, the information being configured to be shown in the APP unlock interface corresponding to the APP.

In one embodiment, an analytics tracking system is disclosed that comprises an interface in electronic communication with one or more consumer devices configured to enable a corresponding consumer to access the interface via a mobile application. The system further comprises a consumer data store comprising data regarding at least one consumer, a movement data store comprising data regarding locations and/or movement of the at least one consumer, and an online behavior data (OBD) data store comprising data associated with browsing and/or application data histories of the at least one consumer. The system further comprises a dynamic analysis system configured to analyze data from the consumer data store, the movement data store, and the OBD data store to generate at least one of custom information for the at least one consumer or identify a location for presentation of information to the at least one consumer.

Systems and methods described herein may include a memory and a computing a system in communication with said memory. The computing system may be configured to receive data from network management systems. In one embodiment, the network management system includes a network gateway. Users at venues may access external network resources using the network management system. Further, the network management systems may extract device identifiers from network packets sent from user devices to request access to external network resources. In some embodiments, the network management system may provide transmission control protocol handshake completion data to user devices. In some embodiments, the computing system also receives one or more attributes associated with the venue, user data associated with the user device, and connection data associated with communication between the user device and said external network resource.

An online system receives offline conversion data in real-time from a third party system regarding an offline user, the offline conversion data indicating an action performed by the offline user and identifying information for the offline user. The online system identifies a local user matching the offline user based on the identifying information for the offline user. The online system stores the offline conversion for the identified local user. The online system determines an attribution to a sponsored content item for the offline conversion. The online system presents updated information regarding the offline conversion to the third party system in real-time.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to impute media consumption behavior are disclosed. An example method includes calculating, by executing an instruction with a processor, first viewing probabilities for tuning panelists in a tuning household. The example method also includes calculating, by executing an instruction with the processor, second viewing probabilities for viewing panelists in a plurality of learning households having a same household size as the tuning household. The example method also includes identifying, by executing an instruction with the processor, a matching one of the plurality of learning households based on a difference between the first viewing probabilities and respective ones of the second viewing probabilities.

An online system generates a custom audience for an advertiser from an advertiser-provided list of customers. In order to generate the custom audience, the online system determines a set of attributes corresponding to a received match priority selection and performs a match of the customers with users of the online system based on the determined set of attributes. The custom audience is supplemented with street addresses associated with the matched users of the online system. Content specific to the determined street addresses may then be provided to the matched users.

A computer server includes processor and memory hardware. The processor hardware executes instructions including parsing a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) request from a first user agent to identify a first data object matching a set of characteristics and generating a new data element based on the HTTP request. The instructions include, in response to the first data object being present: extracting a first set of serialized data elements and serializing them with the new data element to generate a second data object. The instructions include, in response to the first data object being absent and a user associated with the first user agent being identifiable: determining a second set of serialized data elements based on an identity of the user, and serializing them with the new data element to generate the second data object. The instructions include transmitting an HTTP response including the second data object.

A computing system for encouraging the performance of a task comprises association data, a proxy module, a display module, and a reward module. The association data associates tags with stimuli related to performing tasks. The proxy module is configured to receive encoded data, to identify tags in the encoded data that have associated stimuli in the association data, and to generate modified encoded data that includes data representative of at least one of the stimuli. The display module is configured to receive the modified encoded data, to display information based at least in part on the modified encoded data, and to provide at least one mechanism for a user to perform a task related to at least one of the stimuli. The reward module is configured to reward a user for performing tasks related to the stimuli.

An announcement distributor distributes, or auctions an opportunity to distribute, an announcement to an announcement recipient such as a consumer, issuer, merchant, or acquirer within a payment processing system. The announcement when there has been a satisfaction of an announcement condition, such as the consumer being determined to be located within a predetermined spatial zone. The content of the announcement may, in turn, facilitate a subsequent cashless transaction for resources of merchants. Implementations describe various permutations of the content of the announcement, the announcement condition, and the announcement recipient.

A method of delivering advertising in an online environment includes determining a context of a user operating a client computer to interact with an e-commerce website, where the determined context representing an intent of the user to locate a product for purchase, defining a relation between one or more of a plurality of advertisements and the product based on at least one of a plurality of relevance types, and displaying, to the user, at least one of the advertisements having the relation to the product.
