From time to time, we are called upon to offer information about how the DAA self-regulatory process works, along with details about the DAA Principles and program, their scope, and how they are enforced, as well as other points. In the past, we have provided such information in Congressional hearings, Federal Trade Commission proceedings, and worldwide technology standard forums, among other public proceedings.
This past month, the Digital Advertising Alliance undertook a fresh initiative to connect with online and mobile consumers about responsible data collection for advertising purposes, the benefits of relevance, and how they can control their interest-based advertising experiences. With industry support, this consumer education push will run throughout 2016.
As part of this effort, DAA:
WASHINGTON, D.C., MAY 23, 2011 – The Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA), a self-regulatory body that develops industry best practices and effective solutions for consumer choice in online behavioral advertising (OBA), today announced the next phase in the enforcement of the Self- Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising.
WASHINGTON, D.C., NOVEMBER 7, 2011 – On behalf of the nation’s leading media and marketing trade associations and their members, the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) today announced “Principles for Multi-Site Data” that significantly expand the scope of self regulation of online data collection beyond online behavioral advertising (OBA). The DAA has previously developed cross-industry best practices and effective solutions for the collection and use of data for OBA through its Advertising Option Icon program.
WASHINGTON (June 5, 2013) -- Technology and policy leaders from around the world today will gather to discuss the role of effective self-regulation in ensuring the future of advertising-supported Internet content. The first Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) summit will address the continuing evolution of the DAA program and its role in enhancing transparency and consumer privacy choice online.
This week, I had the honor of sharing information about our program with the members of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, led by Sens. Carl Levin (D-MI) and John McCain (R-AZ), both in written and oral testimony on behalf of the Digital Advertising Alliance. Our written testimony is posted here.
This blog post is another in our continuing series of coverage from #DAASummit2014, held June 26 in San Francisco.
One of the remarks made by the Federal Trade Commission’s Jessica Rich, as she spoke during a keynote address at the Digital Advertising Alliance Summit, was her ticking off a list of hallmarks for successful self-regulation. Independent enforcement, backed by the power to refer to a government agency when necessary, is one such hallmark.

The age of “Big Data” is upon us – and in marketing, there are many applications with interest-based advertising being one such example.
This week, the Digital Advertising Alliance took its next step in our efforts to extend effective, independent, ecosystem-wide self-regulation to the online marketing marketplace as it applies to mobile platforms. We announced independent enforcement of our Mobile Guidance will begin September 1, 2015.
This is a big step.
