We directly collect anonymous browsing data through the publishers and networks that use Quantcast Measure and have placed our pixel on their properties. We combine this with anonymous reference data from data partners allowing our statistical models to accurately infer the media consumption habits of a property's audience in aggregate. Some data in reports may be removed when thresholds are applied to prevent inferring the identity of an individual user (see our privacy policy). When looking at large data sets, we will sometimes use statistical sampling.
