Abstract

The present application discloses improved capabilities for aggregating user behavioral data across multiple wireless operators and delivering content to a mobile communication facility based on that aggregation, among other factors.

Claims (7)

1. A system comprising one or more computers having computer readable mediums having stored thereon instructions which, when executed by one or more processors of the one or more computers, causes the system to perform the steps of:

receiving a request from a performance-based ad network for a wireless operator user profile datum containing behavioral data relating to content and applications accessed on a user's mobile communication facility, wherein the performance-based ad network includes a bidding platform;

receiving data from the bidding platform indicating which advertisers within the ad network have the right to request the user profile datum based on submitted bids by the advertisers;

receiving a financial consideration from the ad network;

delivering the user profile datum to the advertisers having been determined as having the right to request the user profile datum; and

sharing a portion of the financial consideration with the wireless operator from which the user profile datum is derived, wherein the portion of the financial consideration is a flat fee.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the portion of the fee is a shared revenue based at least in part on an advertising fee received from the advertising network.
