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.
As we head closer toward September, and the independent enforcement of Digital Advertising Alliance’s Mobile Guidance, one of the most often asked questions we receive has to do with creative specifications for the indication of data collection and interest-based ads in mobile environments… Mobile Web display ads, in-app ads, and the like. Just where do advertisers place the “Your Ad Choices” Icon and what links should be in place behind the icon?
NEW YORK – April 7, 2014 – The Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) today issued detailed guidance for how notice and the DAA Icon should be displayed and used on mobile platforms. For consumers, this means that the icon they know as a symbol of transparency and choice on desktops and laptops will be consistently displayed on their smart phones and tablets.
NEW YORK, NY - November 2, 2015 - The Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) today unveiled new guidelines for the implementation of the DAA's AdChoices icon and ad marker in video ads, "DAA Ad Marker Implementation Guidelines for Video Ads." The DAA's initial release provides marketplace guidance for implementation that will help create a more consistent consumer experience across major video ad formats and players.
Association leaders affiliated with the founding of the Digital Advertising Alliance announced their support today (November 16, 2015) with the unveiling of DAA guidance, "Application of the DAA Principles of Transparency and Control to Data Used Across Devices."
Their reaction includes:
