Advertising Services Version 1.3 When you gather demographic information, that is information that can directly place a person into a group, then you are able to use that information to provide personalized advertising. 5.2 NOTE Custom fields & intelligent delivery of advertising User information can only be used for intelligent delivery if the information places the user directly into a group. For example, a user's gender or age group places that user into a group, but their phone number or email address does not. For a detailed discussion of this, refer to the previous section on demographic and non-demographic information (§5.1). Certain types of form fields allow users to select a single choice from a small list of available options. These types of fields are: Checkboxes - A user can choose to tick the checkbox or not tick it. That is, they must be in one of two possible groups. Checklists - A user is presented with a (typically small) number of checkboxes. For each checkbox, they can choose to tick or not tick the box. Each choice places them in one of the two possible groups. Radio buttons - A user is presented with a (typically small) number of mutually exclusive options. They can choose only one of the options. They are placed into the group corresponding to their selection. Dropdown - As with radio buttons, a user is presented with a (typically small) number of mutually exclusive options. They can choose only one of the options. They are placed into the group corresponding to their selection. Only the above types of form fields (checkboxes, checklists, radio buttons and dropdown lists) can be used to gather information for intelligent delivery. Other field types, such as text fields, can be used to gather important user information, but they cannot be used to influence the delivery of advertising. 5.3 Reporting on user information The Advertising Services plugin provides a simple reporting interface (§4.6) through which you can access the information that your system has collected. For example, assuming that you have customized your guest registration forms to gather gender and age group information, you can produce a chart that shows the breakdown of your users by gender and age group by creating a chart with: The Primary dropdown set to: Users - User The Primary Statistic dropdown set to: Count The Secondary dropdown set to: gender - Gender 127
