THE CHALLENGE

As privacy regulations evolve, marketers are looking to select the right partners to drive privacy-led advertising strategies. At the same time, campaign performance remains a priority so being able to understand the impact that selecting partners based on this criteria has on performance is critical.

 

Dynata, a provider of high-quality, fully permissioned first-party data, wanted to demonstrate to buyers how their audiences can meet both privacy and performance objectives.

THE PROCESS

Neutronian and its buy-side partner, Causal IQ, have developed a process to test whether utilizing verified high-quality, privacy safe data from Dynata has a positive impact on campaign performance.

  • Working with Neutronian, Causal IQ selected a set of campaigns running with various audience targets for the test. 
  • Dynata provided custom segment recommendations for each campaign based on the desired audience target. 
  • Causal IQ set up each campaign with two different ad groups. One ad group used the Neutronian certified Dynata segments for targeting and the second ad group used other non-certified third-party segments for targeting.
  • Each campaign ran over the course of Q2 and Q3 of 2023 and performance was analyzed throughout the test period by Causal IQ and Neutronian.

THE RESULTS

The data from the test showed that Neutronian certified Dynata segments:
