Before you begin
This article is meant for publishers to set up and manage their ad technology partner lists. For other visitors looking for more information about European regulations and privacy, go to our About European regulations messages page.
Ad technology partners (ATPs)
Google provides publishers with controls to select which ad technology partners (ATPs) are allowed to serve and measure ads in the European Economic Area (EEA), the UK, and Switzerland, to support ad delivery, ad measurement, and other functions. All partners listed have shared certain information that is required by European regulations policy, a link explaining their data usage that you can share with your users as part of your consent flow, and they have agreed to comply with our data usage policy.
We built controls for you to choose the ad tech partners you work with so you are in control of the activity on your site. If you don’t engage with the controls, the commonly used set of ad technology partners indicated will serve. The commonly used set comprises the ad technology partners representing the most revenue to publishers from all programmatic demand sources.
Our EU User Consent Policy requires that you clearly identify each party with whom data will be shared. So whether you use a custom set of ad technology partners or use the commonly used set, you will need to list these partners for your users.
You can view these controls and the list of ad technology partners in your Ad Manager, AdSense, or AdMob account.
It is your responsibility to build a vendor list that meets IAB TCF and GDPR transparency requirements.
