The provision establishes the operational framework for Amazon's cross-site advertising infrastructure, distinguishing between the collection of behavioral data (authorized across multiple digital properties) and the display mechanism (which operates without personally identifying information in the ad itself). This reflects Amazon's technical approach to interest-based advertising deployment.
Under these terms, users' browsing activity across websites and applications is tracked and aggregated to inform advertising targeting. The authorization permits this data collection and use as a condition of accessing Amazon services, with the stated limitation that the resulting ads do not directly use personally identifying information in their delivery.
