Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus include computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium for delivering content. A method includes: identifying a webview; providing a script for execution when the webview is initiated, the script causing a device associated with the webview to retrieve a unique identifier associated with the device, encode the unique identifier, construct a URL that includes an advertising system domain and the encoded unique identifier, and pass the encoded unique identifier to the advertising system; passing a cookie for the advertising domain back to the webview for inclusion in the cookie space of the webview; storing information related to interactions of a user of the device when accessing content through different browsers or applications so as to unify the cookie spaces of the different browsers; identifying a request for content as being associated with the device; and using the information to determine content for delivery.
