New Digital Ad Rules: More Fairness and Transparency
This act introduces new rules for digital advertising companies to ensure greater fairness and transparency. It aims to prevent conflicts of interest and promote fair competition, which could lead to better ad prices for businesses and more transparent information for consumers.
Key points
Large advertising companies cannot simultaneously own digital ad exchanges and ad brokerage firms to avoid conflicts of interest.
Ad brokerage firms must act in the best interest of their clients and seek the most favorable terms for them.
Increased transparency: clients can request information on how their ads are bought or sold, including prices and fees.
Companies must publicly disclose their ad routing practices, aiming to increase fairness in the market.
Citizens and state attorneys general can sue companies for violating these rules, providing tools for enforcing the new regulations.
