Singapore – Yahoo Advertising has announced an integration with the Twilio Segment Customer Data Platform (CDP) to improve ad reach and relevance while avoiding the use of third-party cookies. Advertisers can fortify their businesses and leverage first-party data across multiple screens, even in a cookieless environment, because of Twilio Segment’s integration with Yahoo ConnectID.
Segment users will be able to synchronise hashed, cookieless data with their real-time customer profiles because of strategic partnership with Yahoo Advertising and seamless integration with Yahoo ConnectID. This integration allows them to expand the scope and relevance of their campaigns.
Yahoo uses a comprehensive identity strategy across all digital landscapes. Their identity solutions, which include Yahoo ConnectID and Next-Gen Solutions, support addressable and non-addressable inventory.
This comprehensive suite of identity tools enables advertisers to safeguard their business’s future within the Yahoo DSP, allowing them to retain control and maximise ROI in a world where identity is restricted. Marketers can leverage a unified customer perspective through this integration to reach the full potential of addressable advertising and ensure personalised consumer experiences, even as support for cookies and other traditional identity methods dwindles.
Dan Richardson, Director, head of data at Yahoo APAC, said, “Data collaboration is
essential to allow brands to get the most value from their first-party data. This integration means delivering better advertising experiences to customers, and gives advertisers what they want most – greater relevance, reach and measurement. In a world with fewer online user identifiers, Yahoo ConnectID offers a differentiated and future-proofed approach to all businesses.”
Speaking about the partnership, Liz Adeniji, regional vice president, Asia-Pacific and Japan at Twilio Segment, said, “A recent Twilio study found that about 7 in 10 businesses in Asia- Pacific have already turned to using first-party data primarily due to the inadequate visibility over third parties’ data safeguards, management of consent and regulatory compliance. Our new integration with Yahoo will make it easier for these businesses to use their valuable first-party data in a much more meaningful way, in real-time, and most importantly, with utmost relevance to their intended audience.”
She added, “This will enable them to unleash the potential of first-party data across screens to deliver more personalised and engaging campaigns.”
