What is MoEngage? The tool behind those app notifications.
MoEngage explained for users: how engagement tools power push notifications and messages on Indian apps, what data they use, and the privacy questions.
The simple answer
MoEngage is a customer-engagement platform. Apps and websites use it to send push notifications, emails, in-app messages and offers, and to decide who gets which message and when.
To target messages, such tools build a profile of your behaviour: what you open, tap, buy and ignore. The privacy question is how much behaviour is tracked and whether you can turn it off.
