Geofence!

Geo-targeted communications have been shown to work twice
as well as untargeted communications
p  Uses a combination of GPS, Cellular and WiFi along with our proprietary
algorithms to run all-day in the background while only consuming a few percent of
battery life!
p  Supports radial or polygonal geofences with radii of 50 meters or greater!
p  Support both app-wide geofences (all users get the same geofences) and peruser geofences (each user can also have personal geofences)!
p  There is no hard limit on how many geofences you can have!

Proximity

!

Fresh Beacons work indoors and out where other location
technologies often can not!
p Uses Bluetooth LE beacons that you place in strategic locations!
p Can run all-day in the background while consuming miniscule amount of battery life!
p Supports beacon detection from 1 meter up to 50 meters!
p Beacons are managed centrally via the Fresh Manager so you can update where you’ve placed
them, see their battery life, combine them with other modules, etc.!
p Beacons use a secure transmission so that only your app can identify them, no cross-targeting from
competitors!
p There is no limit to how many beacons you can have!

Notification!

We allow you to deliver a message to the right person at
the right place at the right time!
Notifications can be triggered by a combination of Location (Geofencing or Proximity),
Profile and Time!

A consumer with a Beacon-enabled App!
1. Sighting
The consumer’s
Beacon-enabled app
on the smartphone
detects a trigger or
hub.!

2. Relay

3. Resolution

4. Action

The sighting is
sent to the
FDG cloud.!

If the developer is
permitted to see that
trigger, the cloud
provides information
about the sighting to
the developer.!

The developer is
free to take the
action they choose
in their app.!

Privacy

!

FDG doesn’t collect UUIDs (unique user IDs) and we require
transparency to end-users
The Fresh Beacon platform was built with
Privacy in mind from day one. This is
manifested in three ways:!
!
p  The user must opt-in to enable Fresh
Beacon features!
p  In the app, the user must be able to optout and/or delete the collected data on the
phone at any time!
p  FDG has received TRUSTe certification for
how it handles consumer privacy!

Profile

!

Inferred Interests can be used for targeting your application’s
experiences and/or notifications
Personal Places of Interest which consist of the top 20 places your end-user dwells at.
These can be used as a starting to point to create personal geofences for each user.!

Management

!

Both a web portal and set of APIs that allow you to configure
and control all the features of Fresh Beacons
Includes analytics & reporting while also offering bulk download
of raw data for you to slice & dice as you see fit.!
