Could Google Have Looked Into Mastercard Data?
Google might have struck a ‘secret’ deal with Mastercard to track consumers’ offline purchases.
A Bloomberg report indicates that according to some people familiar with the matter, Google paid Mastercard millions of dollars in exchange for insights into whether the online ads run by the search engine led to consumers buying things from physical stores for the past year. The data, if indeed accessed by Google, is likely to have helped the tech giant in its advertising business strategies as it got to know consumers’ purchase habits and history beyond online platforms.
These reports could potentially raise concerns about how far consumer credit/debit card data is protected from third parties. However, while declining to comment on a partnership with Mastercard, Google’s spokesperson said that the company does not have access to personal information from any of their partners’ credit and debit cards.
