Abstract

Embodiments of a privacy preserving supplemental content server (PPSCS) implements a privacy preserving protocol with a content server that requests the PPSCS to serve supplemental content for users. In embodiments, a user-to-segment map (USM) containing user-private information is split into secret shares and stored separately at the PPSCS and the content server. When servicing a request, the USM data is used to identify a key segment of a user, which is in turn used to select a supplemental content for the user. Advantageously, the selection process is performed according to the privacy preserving protocol, which guarantees that (a) the content server does not learn any user-private information about the user in the USM, (b) the PPSCS learns at most one user segment of the user (e.g. the key segment), and (c) the PPSCS cannot track the user over time using any user-private information about the user learned during the execution.
