First-party cookie: A first-party cookie is a cookie stored by a website while a user is on the site itself. For example, if you visit a website and create an account, the website will set a first-party cookie on your computer to remember your login information. First-party cookies are used for a variety of purposes, such as personalizing content, keeping track of your shopping cart, and remembering your preferences.
K-anonymity: K-anonymity is a privacy technique that ensures ads are targeted to a k minimum number of people. By requiring ads to be shown to a larger group, it becomes more difficult to link a particular ad to a specific person. This helps protect user privacy by preventing the identification of individuals based on their online behavior and the ads they see.
Trusted Execution Environment (TEE): A TEE is a combination of hardware and software mechanisms that provide a secure environment to process sensitive data. It allows code to run in isolation, protected from observation or interference by any other process or external party. The code within a TEE is open source and audited to ensure proper operation.
