    6600 Dealership Website Hack? - SpinCar At It Again? Clarivoy "hack the dom"

    There is something much bigger under the surface here. I won't get into what, but it involves much larger players... and there would be a lot of angry dealers if this thread gains traction. I'm sitting on my hands-

    6600 Dealership Website Hack? - SpinCar At It Again? Clarivoy "hack the dom"

    Understood about Criteo...however, it may NOT be the case entirely. Meaning if there was a retargeting campaign in place before where the U variable has a dealer ID and that campaign is no longer active then, in theory, it would still be collecting data. My point is simple - Why have the...

    6600 Dealership Website Hack? - SpinCar At It Again? Clarivoy "hack the dom"

    But again, why incorporate the script at all? There are many more script's than just Criteo Also you don't know what Criteo's script does, when it loads (past loading as part of the SpinCar script) or doesn't (unless you worked there and/or designed the script) Finally read CraigH's post

    6600 Dealership Website Hack? - SpinCar At It Again? Clarivoy "hack the dom"

    Steve Semantics again, know one knows your'e collecting their website visitor data if they're not a client of yours. And.. maybe your are not selling it, but there are scripts which you sync with which maybe - Selling it. It's a matter of DISCLOSURE Further, Why are you collecting data from...

    6600 Dealership Website Hack? - SpinCar At It Again? Clarivoy "hack the dom"

    Steve, I know what "Dom" is. And I'm sure you know I know. For the crowd It is a HTML/Javascript term which referrers to the Object Model - However the object model is part of a website's syntax. And KNOW ONE this day and age uses the word hack in a script (unless maybe they're laughing to...

    The funny thing is that the SpinCar script has just been taken down, where's there's smoke there's fire?

    6600 Dealership Website Hack? - SpinCar At It Again? Clarivoy "hack the dom"

    Chad, As for "Criteo" my statement was clear: Our clients aren't using SpinCar's retargeting service so why would their scripts load on our clients' pages that aren't using SpinCar's retargeting service? Umh...maybe to collect dealership website visitor data without permission? 1) There is NO...

    6600 Dealership Website Hack? - SpinCar At It Again? Clarivoy "hack the dom"

    Hello All, It appears SpinCar may be selling and/or diverting your website visitor data (maybe even lead data) to multiple 3rd parties AGAIN. And guess what, many of these 3rd parties may also be reselling and/or using your visitor data against you. Using Builtwith there are 6,600 instances...

    Guess the Villain Game - from RefreshFriday

    Hello All, Just waiting on three separate dealers who've contracted this "guaranteed" product from a conquest provider to give their approval to post what we've found. Once we have permission from the dealers involved (like we did with the SpinCar post) we will provide all the details. In the...

    BUSTED Spincar caught selling dealer data

    Comical. If it was innocent, then why terminate the agreement with Nielsen? Criteo does SpinCars retargeting NOT Nielsen so their explanation doesn't ring true. Criteo captures all the info they require natively with their pixel. For clarity why doesn't SpinCars provide a copy of their...

    BUSTED Spincar caught selling dealer data

    We've bought data from various sources over the years, but have always done so on a fully disclosed basis. There were points in time many years ago we dabbled in Bluekai and eXelate segments (which we ultimately learned to filter and refine in to super segments for our clients), all the way...

    BUSTED Spincar caught selling dealer data

    Legal would be great as the discovery process would be enlightening. However, it is #3 as I have 3rd party knowledge of their discussions with mutual clients and there is not much to say publicly when the hole can only get deeper.
