We don’t sell your personal data from Yahoo. So you can’t say, I’d like to understand exactly what this person did. We might say, we’ve done an analysis on this group of users, for example on audience advertising; and we may target, in which case data is maintained at Yahoo. But we definitely have principles on what we will and won’t do and we definitely won’t transfer your data to third parties.

Watch a clip of Marissa Mayer, chief executive of Yahoo, addressing the World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting 2015 in Davos above, and catch up with her full session on trust, here.
