IAB Europe tackles a broad waterfront of issues, and creates opportunities for our
member companies and the industry as a whole.
Policy and Regulatory GDPR Implementation
Digital advertising is the object of increasing regulatory scrutiny in
Europe, whether from a data protection and privacy point of view
or as a potential (unwitting) vector for online threats such as fake
news and IP rights infringement. IAB Europe’s policy advocacy, in
collaboration with that of national IABs, aims at ensuring that rules
emanating from Brussels promote innovation and do not needlessly
hamper digital advertising’s capacity to deliver societal benefits
to European citizens, from media plurality to equality of access to
scientific, educational, business and entertainment services. IAB
Europe members are the faces and voices that make this advocacy
compelling for the policy-makers and regulators. Being part of
this work gives companies early insights into policy trends and the
opportunity to help shape them.
We also make the case for self- and co-regulation that may be better-
suited to the fast pace of technological evolution in our sector than
“hard law”.
IAB Europe is dedicated to helping member companies – and the
digital advertising industry as a whole – interpret and comply with
EU rules on data protection and privacy, notably the General Data
Protection Regulation (GDPR) adopted in April 2016 (and enforced
as from May 2018). For this purpose IAB Europe created the GDPR
Implementation Group (GIG) and its constituent working groups are
the locus of this activity. The GIG brings together leading legal and
technical experts from across the digital advertising industry to share
best practices, agree on common interpretations and positioning on
key issues, and then socialise those interpretations with external
stakeholders, including European and national regulators.

The IAB Europe Transparency
and Consent Framework (TCF)
Through the GIG was developed the IAB Europe Transparency and
Consent Framework (TCF). The TCF is particularly relevant for first-parties,
such as publishers and other suppliers of online services, who work with
third-parties for data-driven service. Using the Framework, first-parties
can enable third-parties to process user data. The TCF standardises the
presentation to users’ third-party data processing requests that require
informed consent for data processing. The TCF enables “signaling” of
user choice across the advertising supply chain. It is open-source, not-
for-profit with consensus-based industry governance led by IAB Europe
with significant support from industry parties and the IAB Tech Lab, which
provides technical management of the open-source specifications and
version control. Members can therefore join leading legal and technical
experts from across the digital advertising industry to help develop the
future iterations of the the TCF as well as contribute to working papers
developed by the GIG for public release. For companies interested solely
in working on the development of the TCF, a GIG Membership is available
as a stand-alone item, at EUR 8,200 per year per company.
Brand Advertising
IAB Europe aims to drive brand investment into digital by providing Brand
Advertisers with a reliable and trusted Brand Advertising Framework for
the converging digital and traditional media environment.
The Framework is composed of a set of initiatives which includes the
establishment of recommendations designed to be compatible with
other initiatives around the globe. There are three areas of focus – quality
(viewability, brand safety, fraud and transparency), digital measurement
and ad formats.
Programmatic Trading
IAB Europe aims to address the inefficiencies in digital campaign planning
and buying in order to enable transactions to happen at scale and deliver
the effective advertising campaigns sought by marketers. The IAB Europe
Programmatic Trading Committee is a multi-stakeholder initiative of
publishers, technology platforms, agencies and advertisers working to
increase understanding of the programmatic ecosystem and the impact
it is having on digital advertising and influence industry initiatives to
improve the ecosystem.

across Europe. IAB Europe is running a successful Endorsement
