PUBLISHERS

Say hello to life beyond the cookie.

For too long, the digital advertising ecosystem has been reliant on the third-party cookie. As the industry redefines addressability in 2024, it’s time for publishers to build a strategy for life beyond the cookie.

The future of addressability is not one-size-fits-all

Third-party cookies were great—but together we can build something better. Just like our overall strategy, our solution for publishers takes a multi-pronged approach.

First-Party Data

We match hashed first-party data signals between buy- and sell-side partners to drive better performance for advertisers and higher CPMs for publishers.

We also support leading alternative IDs, including LiveRamp, LiveIntent, ID5, and more.

Google Privacy Sandbox

As one of Google’s first testing partners, we’ve built in support for Topics, Protected Audiences, and Attribution Reporting APIs to preserve addressability and measurement in Chrome.

That’s 63% of the web’s browser traffic covered.

Contextual Commerce Environments

Drive incremental yield in cookieless environments using a combination of our proprietary contextual signals plus Certified Seller-Defined Audiences.

Level-up your commerce media strategy with captivating ad experiences embedded into contextually relevant content.

Safeguard CPMs with first-party data

We encourage our publisher partners to start securely sharing first-party data—like hashed emails or alternative IDs—in bid requests.

The sooner you share the signals, the sooner advertisers can find them.
