This clause establishes the operational scope and data sources for LinkedIn's ad targeting system, specifying that inferred data derived from user profiles constitutes a valid input for advertising personalization. The authorization extends targeting activities beyond LinkedIn's owned services to partner networks, establishing a multi-channel advertising framework.
Users' profile information and characteristics inferred from that profile are incorporated into LinkedIn's ad targeting mechanisms both within and outside the LinkedIn platform. This means ads displayed to a user may be selected based on job title, industry, inferred seniority level, and other profile-derived attributes shared with advertising partners.
