IAB Europe today released the draft technical specifications for its GDPR Transparency & Consent Framework (“Framework”) for public comment. First announced in November 2017, the Framework is a cross-industry effort to help publishers, technology vendors, agencies and advertisers meet the transparency and user choice requirements (including consent where necessary) of the GDPR before the regulation comes into effect on May 25 this year. The Framework is a non-commercial, open source initiative. The final version is scheduled for release mid-April, after continued consultation with publishers, advertisers, and other important industry participants.
The GDPR covers a broader scope of “personal data” than the existing EU Data Protection Directive, and companies are expecting to be more constrained in how they can access and process such data for advertising purposes. The Framework is available to companies based in Europe and around the world, and is designed to support various channels and formats, including mobile and desktop environments.
The Framework includes technical specifications that will allow companies and consumers to have greater control over, and dynamic insight into, the parties who access and process the personal data of consumers in the EU. The technical specifications will be maintained by an IAB Tech Lab working group going forward, through a collaboration between IAB Europe and IAB Tech Lab that leverages IAB Europe’s policy and legal expertise and IAB Tech Lab’s technical expertise.
IAB Europe has published the draft specifications for public comment and is working to closely collaborate with key industry stakeholders including publishers, advertisers, agencies, and their important trade organisations. Organisations wishing to meet with stakeholders involved in the framework and provide feedback may do so until April 8, 2018.
Data protection officers, IT leaders and other interested individuals within publishers, brands, agencies and technology vendors responsible for their organisation’s GDPR compliance can access the specifications here.
General feedback may be submitted in writing to feedback@advertisingconsent.eu, and technical feedback may be submitted to transparencyframework@iabtechlab.com. Those interested have the opportunity to share further feedback and ask questions by participating in upcoming Q&A Webinars that will be scheduled during March 2018. See the webinar schedule and register here.
Advertising accounts for 81.5 percent of revenues for digital publishers (Source: IHS Markit). From May 25, publishers looking to provide a customized online experience including tailored advertising can use the Framework to allow data to be collected and processed lawfully by their partners for advertising and other purposes.
Without the Framework consumers will see less relevant online messages from brands, and brands will see less engagement from consumers. The resulting loss in advertising revenue would impact jobs within the publishing and digital advertising industries, and millions more in related sectors.
Commenting on the Framework, Colin Barlow, Global COO, GroupM said: “The GDPR will bring a number of new requirements to all participants in the digital advertising ecosystem. Such change requires a new shared industry standard, and the IAB Europe Framework offers the best solution to achieving this. GroupM has been consulting with IAB Europe and other members to ensure the framework meets our needs, and so that we can align to its requirements.”

Join this webinar on Wednesday, 14 March at 4pm CET / 3pm GMT to gain insight into the “Building better ad experience for users to sustain the free & open web” which encompasses Google’s initiatives to help sustain the ad ecosystem focus on two key areas, being the reduction of demand for ad blocking by busting annoying ads, and addressing existing ad blocker usage through user education and alternative funding choices.
As part of this commitment to ensure sustainable free and open web ecosystem, Google started to implement its plan for the Chrome browser to filter ads on 15 February. The filtering is based on the threshold of consumers’ reception of ads, as set jointly by industry with the Better Ads Standards of the Coalition for Better Ads which are applicable in desktop web and mobile web environments in Europe and North America based on research reflecting the views of more than 40,000 users in these geographies.
The webinar will be presented by Scott Spencer, Director of Sustainable Advertising, and Jan Hardrat, Publisher Solutions Specialist, Central Europe at Google, and followed by a Q&A session, and as a whole hosted by Greg Mroczkowski at IAB Europe. Among Scott Spencer’s wide-ranging responsibilities are the processes, policies, and algorithms that help Google fight bad ads, sites, and scams, as well as the company’s efforts to contribute to the improvement of the sustainability of the overall advertising ecosystem, which includes collaboration with the Coalition for Better Ads to fight the bad ad experiences. Whereas Jan Hardrat in his role works on initiatives such as Ad Experience Report and Funding Choices, as well as on programmatic advertising solutions, yield monetization and platform efficiencies.
