Is it allowed for websites and apps that use Facebook Connect to deliver ads based on demographic data which was retrieved from Facebook?
-
Facebook Platform Policies said in Chapter "II. Storing and Using Data You Receive From Us" as follows, You will not directly or indirectly transfer any data you receive from us, including user data or Facebook User IDs, to (or use such data in connection with) any ad network, ad exchange, data broker, or other advertising or monetization related toolset, even if a user consents to such transfer or use. By indirectly we mean you cannot, for example, transfer data to a third party who then transfers the data to an ad network. By any data we mean all data obtained through use of the Facebook Platform (API, Social Plugins, etc.), including aggregate, anonymous or derivative data. https://developers.facebook.com/policy/ but it is ambiguous.

Answer:
That's pretty much the point of Facebook Connect. Any alleged prohibitions in the TOU are moot if not enforced, which they seem not to be.

I think it says you cannot do what you want in this line, "By indirectly we mean you cannot...transfer data to a third party who then transfers the data to an ad network. By any data we mean all data obtained through use of the Facebook Platform (API, Social Plugins, etc.), including aggregate, anonymous or derivative data." I don't think it is very ambiguous at all. Facebook doesn't want you to take its data and use it for other ad networks. Makes sense, it does all the work gathering the data and it wants to be the one who gets paid. But that is just my quick reading. You might want to ask someone who really focuses on this stuff. Because you know, any advice I give you is worth what you paid for it. A big fat 0 ;)If you require legal assistance, please contact a lawyer in yo...
