MediaMath Creative Policy

The following categories of Creative are prohibited when using the Services, and MediaMath in its sole discretion may pause and/or require immediate removal of any creatives not in full compliance with these prohibitions and requirements. “Creative” refers to ad units, landing pages, or any other content related to or used in connection with the serving of ads using the Services.

Category Description and Examples
Ad Fraud Creative associated with any activity designed to sell advertising under fraudulent pretenses, including but not limited to non-human traffic, tag hijacking, hidden ads, domain spoofing, cookie stuffing, generating fake impressions or clicks, misrepresenting advertiser characteristics (such as the landing page URL, advertiser vertical, etc.), reselling of ads under false pretenses, (e.g., misrepresenting the publisher or the type of ad unit), etc. MediaMath reserves the right to identify novel categories and types of Ad Fraud as they emerge.
Auto-audio Creative that automatically initiates audio without the user’s explicit engagement or action.
Auto-downloads Creative that contains, or provides access to, any files that execute or download software without intentional user interaction. Other than expected behavior that follows industry ad quality standards, such as direction to a landing page, clicking on, scrolling over, or otherwise interacting with an ad must also not initiate a download or display of any type of file or other content. Compliance-related ad content or features that may include any automatic elements (e.g. mandated pharmaceutical disclosures, etc.) may require review and assessment by MediaMath to ensure conformity to both compliance needs and ad quality standards. MediaMath at its sole discretion may pause and/or remove any creatives that it determines are not acceptable.
Auto-redirects Creative that automatically redirects a user to other sites or applications, without the user’s explicit engagement or action.
Deceptive or Misleading Creative that attempts to trick or deceive a user into taking some action (e.g., “click bait” Creative, Creative that resemble user interface elements, Creative that displays fake errors or warnings, such as warnings about viruses, missing codecs, or corrupt disks, etc.) or markets false or unrealistic promises such as extreme weight loss, anti-aging, etc.
Defamation Creative that depicts, contains, or provides access to material that is damaging to the reputation of another.
Delayed Load Creative consistently taking more than two seconds to initiate the user ad experience.
False Claims, Misinformation, and Disinformation Creative that makes verifiably false or otherwise misleading claims or that otherwise facilitates the dissemination and/or propagation or promotion of verifiably false or misleading information or content is strictly prohibited. MediaMath at its sole discretion may pause and/or remove any creative that it determines violates this policy, whether or not such violation is determined to be intentional. MediaMath may additionally at its sole discretion prevent ad delivery on content determined to promote false claims, misinformation, and disinformation.
Government Forms or Services Creative that depicts, contains, or provides access to offers that charge for government forms or services that are available for a lesser charge or free from the government.
Hate Speech Creative that depicts, contains, or provides access to content that incites violence or prejudicial action towards a protected individual or group; or content that disparages or intimidates a protected individual or group.
Illegal Creative that is, or that MediaMath reasonably believes is, likely to be in violation of any applicable law, regulation or court order.
Illegal Drugs Creative featuring or promoting the sale of illegal drugs, pharmaceuticals, or drug paraphernalia. Select creative featuring cannabis-related products may be acceptable where compliant with local law and the “Cannabis Products” section of this User Policy.
Implied Knowledge Creative that implies knowledge of personally identifiable information or any of the following sensitive characteristics about the user to whom the Ad was targeted:

§  Adult activities (including alcohol, gambling, adult dating, etc.)

§  Commission or alleged commission of any crime

§  Divorce or marital separation

§  Health (including mental health) or medical information

§  Negative financial status or situation

§  Political affiliation (other than the public registration information of United States voters)

§  Precise location of the user at that moment or at any time in the past

§  Racial or ethnic information

§  Religion or religious belief

§  Sexual behavior or orientation

§  Status as a child (“Child) under the age defined in that jurisdiction. Trade union membership or affiliation. For example regarding racial, ethnic, or religious information, an Ad may not state “Explore your Jewish heritage” because this implies knowledge of the user’s religion or ethnic background. An Ad stating “Learn about Judaism” would be allowed. For an example related to health or mental health, an ad may not state “your bipolar disorder” or “your heart condition.” An ad stating “this product helps with bipolar disorder” or “this medication helps with heart conditions” would be allowed. A generic phrase such as “Ask your doctor about this medication” would not necessarily be problematic. The key question is whether or not the phrasing implies specific information about the individual’s own condition. Similarly, an Ad for coffee may be delivered when a consumer is near a coffee shop, but the Ad may not state “Coffee is just a few steps away” because this implies knowledge of the user’s precise location at that moment.

Ad creatives including implied knowledge of any sensitive characteristics are strictly prohibited, and MediaMath in its sole discretion may require immediate removal of any offending creatives.

Interferes with User Navigation Creative that disrupts the user’s ability to navigate their experience, e.g., by preventing a user from leaving a page by opening modal dialogs or pop-up windows.
Interferes with Another Party’s Content Creative that obscures, replaces, or modifies another party’s ads or content.
Invalid or Improper Classification Creative that is improperly classified and/or missing classification with respect to its characteristics, including but not limited to:

§  Improper classification of Creative that cycles through multiple advertisers

§  Improper classification of Creative running in-banner video (i.e., video ads running within standard display units)

§  Improper classification of a Creative’s landing page URL

§  Improper classification of Creative that auto-plays (i.e., Creative that initiates video play without the user’s explicit engagement or action)

§  Improper classification of Creative action, such as expandable or pop-up action

§  Improper classification of Creative descriptors, such as the advertiser vertical, language, etc.

§  Missing entire or partial classification

Lost Video Impression Opportunities Video creatives where an auction is won but the impression does not serve / creative does not load (e.g., because the VAST is blank or the ad server opts out after winning the impression).
Malware and Malvertising Creative that contains, installs, links to, or prompts the download of any malware, Trojan horse, virus, or any other malicious code. MediaMath reserves the right to identify novel malware types as they emerge. Creative that in any way includes malvertising instances as defined by the TAG (Trustworthy Accountability Group) Malvertising Taxonomy is also strictly prohibited. MediaMath in its sole discretion may require immediate removal of any offending creatives.
Morally Reprehensible Creative that MediaMath reasonably deems to be morally reprehensible or patently offensive, and without redeeming social value.
Phishing Creative designed to obtain information from a user under false pretenses (e.g., attempting to extract financial information by posing as a legitimate company, etc.).
Piracy Creative that MediaMath reasonably believes (a) contains content that does, or is likely to, infringe or misappropriate a copyright, trademark, trade secret, or patent of a third party or (b) promotes or induces infringement or misappropriation of a copyright, trademark, trade secret, or patent of a third party. Creative which in any way facilitates the above is strictly prohibited.
Pornography and Adult Content Creative that depicts, contains or otherwise advertises pornography, nudity, obscenity, and other material of a sexual nature.

Materials of a sexual nature may include, but are not limited to:

§  Escort services and prostitution

§  Sexual encounters or dating sites which focus on facilitating sexual encounters

§  Full and partial nudity, where the latter exposes an intimate body part

§  Cosmetic procedures and products focusing on intimate body parts

§  Lewd images and language

§  Sexual entertainment, e.g., strip clubs, adult movies, sexually suggestive live streaming and chat

This policy may be applied along additional factors that may vary by jurisdiction, context and cultural sensitivities, and MediaMath at its sole discretion may permit or prohibit creative on this basis.

Reselling Creative involved in any transaction in which the buyer of an impression triggers a subsequent external auction or creative where the original restrictions and constraints of the seller/publisher are not respected (e.g., buying a display creative and reselling as video creative).
Violence Creative that depicts, contains, or provides access to violent content or content that glorifies human suffering, death, self-harm, violence against animals, or contains graphic or violent images.
Weapons Creative that primarily features the sale of, or instructions to create, bombs, guns, firearms, ammunition or other weapons or weapons accessories.

Examples of weapons and weapon accessories include, but are not limited to:

§  Guns, including airsoft guns, air guns, blow guns, paintball guns, antique guns, replica guns, and imitation guns

§  Gun parts and accessories, including gun mounts, grips, magazines, safes, racks and ammunition

§  Rental of guns (other than from shooting ranges)

The following categories of Creative are restricted when using the Services. MediaMath in its sole discretion may require immediate removal of any creatives which fail to adhere to these guidelines:

Cannabis Cannabis-related advertising (advertising products derived from the cannabis plant, including the compounds THC or cannabidiol, as well as any other hemp-derived products; hereafter “Cannabis Ads”) is permitted in select jurisdictions, only.

Advertisers who wish to serve Cannabis Ads must complete an intake questionnaire and submit their creative to MediaMath for approval. Only approved advertisers and their approved campaigns may serve Cannabis Ads, provided they and their creative comply with the Advertising Standards published by the National Association of Cannabis Businesses, available at https://www.nacb.com/advertising in addition to the remainder of the MediaMath User Policy and any Cannabis-specific setup guidelines. Where local Cannabis laws and regulations may differ from NACB guidelines, deference is given to the local legal and regulatory framework. Due to the evolving nature of the regulatory landscape around cannabis products, MediaMath reserves the right to reject advertisers or creative for any reason. Please contact your MediaMath representative for details on the approval process.

Regardless of jurisdiction, targeted audiences for cannabis products may not include users based on any knowledge or inferences about substance abuse, rehab, depression, or other sensitive factors. This prohibition includes geofencing locations associated with sensitive health conditions, such as drug rehabilitation services. Before retargeting based on site visits, clients must receive confirmation that users are above the legal age in the applicable jurisdiction. This can take the form of a dialogue box where a user must indicate their age before entering the site.

Advertisers may only run cannabis ads on MediaMath-approved publishers and exchanges. Not all website and app publishers or exchanges accept Cannabis Ads. Publishers and exchanges may further restrict Cannabis Ads beyond this policy. If you are unsure whether a publisher or exchange will accept Cannabis Ads, please contact your MediaMath account representative.

Downloads Where Creative links directly or indirectly to a site that contain software, the software must:

§  Not contain malware;

§  Provide the user with clear and conspicuous notice about all material functionality;

§  Obtain informed consent from the user prior to download or installation;

§  Provide an easy-to-use uninstall to the user; and

§  Allow the user to maintain control over his or her computing environment.

Political For the purpose of this Policy, Political Ads shall include any paid-for communications that promote or oppose a political party, a candidate at any level of government for public office, or a ballot initiative, or that attempt to influence political opinion or actions including advertising that takes a position on an issue associated with a registered party or candidate, even if the name of that party, candidate, or initiative is not explicitly mentioned.

The following requirements apply to Clients using the Services to run Political Ads:

1.      Clients running Political Ads must do so in MediaMath platform advertiser and campaign entities dedicated to political advertising and separate from any nonpolitical advertising. No MediaMath platform advertiser or campaign should contain both political and nonpolitical ads.

2.     Clients must flag as political all MediaMath platform advertiser and campaign entities via which Political Ads are run.

§  Advertisers must be flagged as political by enabling the “Political Advertiser” toggle on the Admin > New/Edit Advertiser screen.

§  Campaigns must be flagged as political by checking the “Political Campaign” checkbox on the New/Edit Campaign screen under Advanced Settings.

3.     As noted above, clients may not run Creative (political or nonpolitical) that makes a demonstrably false claim. Given the importance of a robust political dialogue to democracy and the challenges in evaluating the truth of every political claim, we expect to enforce this requirement in a very limited number of instances and for clear violations. Examples of such violations include but are not limited to creative:

§  That indicates or implies that people should vote on the wrong day or by text message, that or a candidate has died

§  That makes misleading claims about the census process

§  That includes doctored media (“deep fakes”)

§  That otherwise makes demonstrably false claims that could significantly undermine voter participation or trust in an electoral or democratic process

4.    Clients running Political Ads in the United States must adhere to the DAA’s Application of the Self-Regulatory Principles of Transparency & Accountability to Political Advertising. Clients are responsible for inserting the purple Political Ads icon into their Creative. The client may elect to insert the icon themselves or leverage MediaMath’s in-platform capabilities to do so. Additional setup may be required.

5.     Clients running Political Ads in Canada must adhere to the DAAC Self-Regulatory Principle of Transparency for Political Advertising. Clients are responsible for inserting the purple Political Ads icon into their Creative. MediaMath does not provide this service.

6.     Political Ads are subject to review by MediaMath and may require additional screening and intake requirements.

7.     Clients interested in running Political Ads in non-US or non-Canadian jurisdictions should contact their MediaMath representative. Local rules regarding paid political advertising vary significantly such that MediaMath’s services may be limited or unavailable, and MediaMath at its sole discretion will assess whether to permit or reject such requests on a case by case basis.

8.     Clients are responsible prior to submitting a request for non-US or non-Canadian advertising for being fully versed in the local laws, regulations, rules and requirements and must provide evidence of their research and knowledge regarding the same to MediaMath upon request. If such advertising is permitted by MediaMath, advertisers must strictly adhere to all such local laws, regulations, rules, and requirements.

9.     MediaMath at its sole discretion may permit or prohibit political advertising in any given jurisdiction based on its assessment whether such advertising may be reasonably expected to pose potential liabilities or business, reputational, or security risk to MediaMath or its partners or where political advertising in the given jurisdiction cannot be assured to otherwise follow MediaMath policies regarding political advertising or advertising generally.

Tobacco, E-Cigarettes, and Related Products MediaMath clients must comply with all applicable laws and industry self-regulations related to tobacco or e-cigarette advertising in the jurisdictions that they operate, collect data, and serve ads. This includes any laws or regulations related to creative content and the minimum age of targeted or prospected users.

MediaMath’s supply sources may have their own policies and may be more restrictive than this Policy. Clients are responsible for ensuring their ads are compliant with suppliers’ policies.

This Policy also applies to non-tobacco products or products that only contain nicotine. MediaMath considers these types of products as tobacco products and thus subject to all laws and regulations applicable to the jurisdictions in which the client will be operating.

Clients are responsible for ensuring that they target this content properly, including any necessary targeting to avoid underage users. Please reach out to your MediaMath account representative with any questions.

 

MediaMath Pixeling Policy

The following policies apply to your placement of MediaMath pixels on digital properties, including on Web sites, in emails, and in mobile applications (“Digital Properties”). MediaMath in its sole discretion may remove pixels that do not comply with this policy. 

General Requirements 1. You may place MediaMath pixels only on those Digital Properties for which you have the necessary rights and authorizations to do so.

2. Where data is collected by a third party from your Digital Properties for Interest-Based Advertising (“IBA”), Cross-App Advertising (“CAA”), or Retargeting (“Retargeting”), you must provide notice of this data collection and the choices available to users, as specified by relevant regional privacy regulations. IBA refers to the collection of data across web domains owned and operated by different entities for the purpose of delivering Ads based on preferences or interests known or inferred from the data collected. CAA refers to the collection of data through applications owned or operated by different entities on a particular device for the purpose of delivering Ads based on preferences or interests known or inferred from the data collected. Retargeting is the practice of collecting data about a user’s activity on one Digital Property for the purpose of delivering an ad based on that data on a different, unaffiliated Digital Property.

3. Consistent with the DAA Principles, you may not place MediaMath pixels in toolbars or other locations such that data may be collected from all or substantially all URLs traversed by a web browser across Web sites or all or substantially all applications on a device for IBA, CAA, or Retargeting without MediaMath’s prior review and approval of your consent mechanism. Clients interested in having MediaMath review such a mechanism should reach out to their MediaMath account manager.

4. Sites and creatives on which you place MediaMath pixels must comply with all other aspects of this User Policy.

Children MediaMath pixels may not be placed on Digital Properties directed at Children (“Child-Directed Digital Properties”).
Sensitive Health Conditions MediaMath pixels may not be placed on Digital Properties related to sensitive health conditions for IBA, CAA, or Retargeting purposes without the user’s specific opt-in consent. MediaMath must review and approve your consent mechanism before you place MediaMath pixels for such purposes.

Clients may place MediaMath pixels on Digital Properties related to sensitive health conditions for other purposes, such as Ad Delivery and Reporting (“ADR”) without the user’s opt-in consent. ADR is separate and distinct from IBA, CAA, and Retargeting and refers to the collection of data from a computer or device to (i) facilitate the delivery of an ad, or (ii) provide advertising-related services that are not tied to the end user’s known or inferred interests (e.g., frequency capping).

For more information on what constitutes a sensitive health condition, please see MediaMath’s Targeting Policy below.

 

Note regarding Health Data Targeting: new federal legal restrictions mean some conditions may be reclassified as sensitive and the above NAI guidelines may be revised.

Please consult your own legal counsel before proceeding.  

MediaMath Targeting Policy

The following policies apply to your targeting of ad units (“Ads”) to users through the Services. The policies listed below apply whether you are targeting users based on data collected from Digital Properties (IBA, CAA, or Retargeting) or through data collected about the user offline (“User-Matched Ads”). MediaMath in its sole discretion may require immediate removal and/or pause ad delivery of any targeting that fails to adhere to these policies.

General Requirements 1.     You must provide notice of IBA, CAA, and Retargeting data collection and use practices, and the choices available to users, in or around Ads that are informed by IBA (“IBA Ads”), CAA (“CAA Ads”), or Retargeting (“Retargeting Ads”). You can meet your notice and choice obligations by placing the AdChoices Icon on each such Ad you serve using the Services. MediaMath will add the AdChoices icon on behalf of any client who does not opt out of this service and provide written confirmation of their compliance via an alternate mechanism. A small fee will apply.
Alcohol Ads that promote alcohol or alcoholic beverages are restricted by region and may only be targeted to users that (i) reside in a jurisdiction where alcohol advertising is permitted, and (ii) are of the legal age to purchase alcohol within that jurisdiction. Alcohol-related Ads must not be designed, or appear to be designed, to appeal to underage purchasers.
Brand Safety and Brand Suitability Brand Safety and Brand Suitability protections are the client’s sole responsibility when using the Services, with the exception of platform-wide protections which MediaMath may choose to enforce based on its own assessment of needs through tools such as its proprietary Universal Block List. Brand Safety and Brand Suitability tools are available via selective options available for users in the MediaMath Platform, including but not limited to third party contextual Brand Safety and Brand Suitability segments, exclusion and inclusion lists, and post-bid tagging solutions. MediaMath makes no warranties regarding the effectiveness of third party solutions that may be available within the MediaMath Platform. Any assessment of the effectiveness of these solutions is left to the client to determine, and MediaMath makes no guarantees with respect to these solutions.
Buying Power You may not target Ads on the basis of negative aspects of that user’s financial status. Examples of prohibited practices include targeting:

§  Credit card Ads to users on the basis of their low credit ratings

§  Debt consolidation services Ads to users with high debt loads

§  Legal service Ads to users on the basis of financial information showing that they are at a higher risk of bankruptcy

You are also not permitted to use data collected from IBA, CAA, or Retargeting to determine a user’s credit eligibility.

Children In connection with your use of the Service, you may not:

§  Serve targeted ads on Child-Directed Digital Properties

§  Target an Ad based on the prior online activity of a user of Child-Directed Digital Properties

§  Create segments that target or are intended to target Children

Criminal Actions You may not target Ads on the basis of knowledge or inference of the user’s commission or alleged commission of any crime, such as information indicating that a user has a criminal record.
Gambling For purposes of this Targeting Policy, a gambling-related Ad (“Gambling Ad”) means the following:

§  Any Ad that promotes, directly or indirectly, online (Web or mobile) and offline (land-based or “brick and mortar” casinos, betting shops, card rooms or other gambling establishments) gambling, gaming, betting or wagering of any kind, whether for cash prizes or other things of value, including but not limited to casino games, poker, sports betting (whether individual or parlay wagering), pari-mutuel wagering or “betting pools” (including horse racing, dog racing, and jai alai), lotteries, raffles, sweepstakes, penny auctions, and fantasy sports.

§  Any Ad that otherwise relates in any way to the foregoing activities, including Ads for promotional products, services or materials, including education, “learn to play,” “practice” and other free simulation Digital Properties affiliated with online or offline gambling or wagering sites or facilities.

Gambling Ads may be targeted to users in jurisdictions where such Ads are not prohibited so long as you comply with the following requirements:

§  You and, if you are an advertising agency, the end advertiser currently hold all required licenses, permits, registrations, waivers, consents or other governmental approvals (collectively, “Licenses”) to operate in the jurisdictions in which the Gambling Ad is served and in any other jurisdictions in which you and the advertiser operate.

§  You and, if you are an advertising agency, the end advertiser are in compliance with and agree to remain in compliance with all applicable laws and the terms of all applicable Licenses.

§  You and, if you are an advertising agency, the end advertiser agree not to serve Gambling Ads in any jurisdiction specifically prohibited by this Targeting Policy, as such may be updated from time to time.

Health Note regarding Health Data Targeting: new federal legal restrictions mean some conditions may be reclassified as sensitive and the above NAI guidelines may be revised.

Please consult your own legal counsel before proceeding.

 

Health-related advertising (advertising health-related products and services or targeting advertisements based on health-related data) is highly regulated by government and industry. Given the large number of jurisdictions in which MediaMath operates and the myriad of health products and services that exist, it is beyond the scope of this Targeting Policy to define on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis what constitutes acceptable health advertising. Rather, the guidelines below should be considered a US baseline for use of the Services, with other jurisdictions generally being more restrictive. In particular, please note that under the IAB UK’s “Digital advertising guidance: special category data under the GDPR”, a company seeking to create or use such OBA segments relying on use of special category personal data as defined under Article 9.2 of GDPR must ensure it has “met all other relevant requirements for processing special category data including having a process for obtaining explicit consent (in addition to any consent you may need to obtain to process personal data under Article 6 of the GDPR, and/or to meet the requirements in PECR) before doing so”. As always, clients assume all responsibility for ensuring their advertising is legal in all jurisdictions and acceptable on all exchanges where they intend to advertise. You may not target IBA, CAA, Retargeting, or User-Matched Ads to users on the basis of sensitive health information (“Sensitive Health Data”) without their specific opt-in consent. MediaMath must review and approve your consent mechanism before you may target such Ads to those users on the basis of Sensitive Health Data. Per the NAI Code, Sensitive Health Data includes: (i) information about any past, present, or potential future health or medical conditions or treatments, including genetic, genomic, and family medical history, based on, obtained, or derived from pharmaceutical prescriptions or medical records, or similar health or medical sources that provide actual knowledge of a condition or treatment (the source is sensitive) and (ii) information, including inferences, about sensitive health or medical conditions or treatments (the condition or treatment is sensitive regardless of the source). The relevant factors in determining whether a health condition is sensitive include:

§  The seriousness of the condition

§  How narrowly the condition is defined

§  Its prevalence

§  Whether it is something that an average person would consider to be particularly private in nature

§  Whether it is treated by over-the-counter or prescription medications

§  Whether it can be treated by modifications in lifestyle as opposed to medical intervention

Examples of sensitive health conditions include:

§  Cancer

§  Drug addiction

§  Menopause

§  Mental health related conditions, including:

§  Alzheimer’s

§  Anorexia/bulimia

§  Depression

§  Generalized anxiety disorder

§  Schizophrenia

§  Pregnancy termination

§  Sexual dysfunction

§  Sexually transmitted diseases

You may target IBA, CAA, Retargeting, or User-Matched Ads to users on the basis of their known or inferred interest in a non-sensitive health condition. Per the NAI Code, examples of non-sensitive health conditions include:

§  Acne

§  Allergies

§  Back pain

§  Beauty

§  Cholesterol management

§  Cold and flu

§  Dental

§  Diet

§  Exercise

§  First aid

§  General interest segments, including:

§  Men’s health

§  Women’s health

§  Senior health needs

§  Children’s health

§  Hair removal

§  Headache

§  Health and fitness

§  Heartburn

§  High blood pressure

§  Nutrition

§  Sinus

§  Sore throat

§  Vision

§  Vitamins and supplements

You may target IBA, CAA, Retargeting, or User-Matched Ads concerning all health conditions to users on the basis of demographic data (e.g., age, gender).

You may also serve Contextual Ads concerning all health conditions. Contextual Ads are Ads that are targeted on the basis of the content of the digital property the user is currently visiting.

If you are unsure of whether a particular health condition or treatment is sensitive, contact your MediaMath account representative before targeting users on the basis of their interest in that condition or treatment.

Location Sanctioned Jurisdictions
MediaMath clients may not serve ads in any jurisdictions where sanctions imposed by the US Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) would prohibit such advertising.Precise Location
Precise Location Data (“Precise Location Data”) is information that describes the precise geographic location of a device derived through any technology that is capable of determining with reasonable specificity the actual physical location of a person or device. Examples of Precise Location Data include:§  A user’s GPS-level latitude/longitude coordinates (often based on information received from a user’s mobile device)§  Location-based Wi-Fi triangulation§  A user’s presence at a specific location or shop (e.g., received from a Bluetooth beacon associated with a specific location)Geofencing
Consistent with the NAI Code, you are permitted to target Ads based on the precise location of the device at the time the Ad is served (“geofence”) so long as you do not store the precise location once the ad is served or delivered. Such geofencing may not target:§  A geographic area smaller than 785,398 meters² (the area of a circle with a radius of 500 meters). For example, you may not place a 100-meter circular geofence around one individual coffee shop. However, you may geofence all coffee shops in New York City, because the total area geofenced would be greater than 785,398 meters².§  Exception: You may target a smaller geographic area provided the location is a very high-density venue. For example, you may target a 100-meter radius around Yankee Stadium during a game because the stadium has a seating capacity of over 50,000.§  A personal address. Only business addresses (e.g., Disneyworld, or 4 World Trade Center) or public locations (e.g., Central Park) may be used as the locations around which ads are targeted.§  Locations designed for children, including locations such as:§  Day care centers§  Playgrounds

§  Schools below the college level (preschools, primary schools, and secondary schools)

§  Tutoring and educational services

§  Youth organizations

§  Locations designed for survivors of abuse, including locations such as:

§  Rape crisis centers

§  Women’s shelters

§  Locations associated with pregnancy, sexual health, sexual orientation, or sensitive health conditions, such as:

§  Abortion clinics

§  Alcohol and drug services

§  Healthcare or other facilities with an emphasis on pregnancy, sexual health, or sensitive health conditions. Clients may geofence locations such as primary care and other facilities which are beyond a shadow of a doubt “general” and which would contain patients or consumers representing a wide variety of health conditions.

§  LGBT centers and venues

§  In the EU: Any locations which reveal information about health or sex life

§  Locations that imply negative financial status, such as check cashing facilities

§  Locations that reveal racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade-union membership, such as:

§  Churches

§  Trade union offices

The above limitations do not apply to more general targeting that includes sensitive locations by nature of its breadth. For example, clients may target New York City, even though there are sensitive health facilities in New York City.

MediaMath reserves the right to require a client to broaden or discontinue its targeting if MediaMath in its sole discretion determines that the targeting may create a negative user experience or is otherwise inappropriate.

Targeting Ads Based on Historic Precise Location Data
You may not serve Ads based on knowledge of the device or user’s precise location in the past or over time without obtaining the user’s opt-in consent.

For jurisdictions outside the US, you must contact your MediaMath representative before serving IBA, CAA, Retargeting, or User-Matched Ads on the basis of Precise Location Data.

Piracy Clients may not knowingly target content MediaMath reasonably believes (a) contains content that does, or is likely to, infringe or misappropriate a copyright, trademark, trade secret, or patent of a third party or (b) promotes or induces infringement or misappropriation of a copyright, trademark, trade secret, or patent of a third party. MediaMath reserves the right to immediately remove and prevent any targeting of such content whether intentional or not.
Political Affiliation or Beliefs Political Ads in the United States may not be targeted at audiences smaller than the following number of devices according to the scope of the applicable candidate or initiative:

o   National (e.g., general presidential elections) – 500,000

o   State-level (e.g., presidential primaries, the election of federal senators or state governors, and state ballot initiatives) – 500,000 or 10% of the state population, whichever is lower

o   Local-level (e.g., the election of state senators or local officials, local ballot initiatives) – 10,000

o   Notwithstanding the foregoing, targeting based on geographic location down to and including ZIP code-level targeting (but not ZIP+4 or radius around a location) is allowed even though the target population may be considerably less than the above.

o   Exceptions to any of the above may be requested via your account manager and must be approved in advance by MediaMath’s Data Policy & Governance team.

Political Ads in other countries must not be targeted at audiences smaller than comparably sized audiences relative to the population.

Political Ads in other countries must not be targeted at audiences smaller than comparably sized audiences relative to the population. For the purposes of this Targeting Policy, Ads related to a user’s political affiliation or beliefs (“User-Targeted Political Ads”) shall include IBA, CAA, Retargeting, or User-Matched Ads that promote: (i) political figures, opinions, or issues, such as Digital Properties for political candidates, (ii) political groups, (iii) political cause awareness, (iv) advocacy groups, or (v) union memberships.

You may not target User-Targeted Political Ads to users that reside in the European Union or the United Kingdom. You must contact your MediaMath representative before serving User-Targeted Political Ads to users that reside in other non-US jurisdictions.

User-Targeted Political Ads are generally permissible in the US. MediaMath reserves the right to limit or prohibit User-Targeted Political Ads involving particularly sensitive issues (e.g., abortion, sexual orientation, etc.). MediaMath reserves the right to review, request modifications to, or reject any User-Targeted Political Ad at its sole discretion. However, such discretion will not be exercised with the intent to favor or disfavor any particular candidate or political party.

Race & Ethnicity In the US generally, unless prohibited by applicable US State laws, you may serve IBA, CAA, Retargeting, or User-Matched Ads to users on the basis of their known or inferred race or ethnic origin.

 

In the European Union and the United Kingdom, you may not serve such Ads to users.

Religion In the US generally, unless prohibited by applicable US State laws, you may serve IBA, CAA, Retargeting, or User-Matched Ads to users on the basis of their known or inferred religion or religious beliefs.

In the European Union and the United Kingdom, you may not serve such Ads to users.

Sexual Orientation You are not permitted to target IBA, CAA, Retargeting, or User-Matched Ads to users based on their known or inferred sexual orientation, including indirect inference (e.g., donation to LGBT advocacy groups), without their specific opt-in consent. MediaMath must review and approve your consent mechanism before you may target such Ads. Clients interested in having MediaMath review such a mechanism should reach out to their MediaMath account manager.

9.Transfer Impact Assessment between the EU and the UK to the USA. MediaMath are not subject to EO 12333, because EO12333 only applies to US federal agencies. However, like all businesses that provide computer processing services anywhere in the world and that are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, MediaMath is subject to FISA Section 702, which the US government relies upon to access data related to national security issues without regard to the physical location of the data (for example, data stored in the EU is subject to disclosure under FISA Section 702). Although the US government in theory could seek access to data by serving a FISA warrant on MediaMath, the US government typically serves FISA warrants on telecommunications companies or providers of services or equipment designed specifically to facilitate communications (for example, AT&T, Verizon, Facebook, Twitter, etc.). To that point, MediaMath have never received a FISA warrant and does not anticipate being compelled to disclose any data pursuant to FISA Section 702. MediaMath hereby confirms that due to the nature and architecture of its Platform, it is not feasible to limit processing services to a data centre located in the EU. MediaMath will monitor updated guidance from data protection authorities and incorporate such guidance as appropriate into a robust privacy and security program that evolves with the changing legal and regulatory landscape.

10. The Model Clauses shall be treated as Confidential Information for the purposes of this Agreement, and may not be disclosed by MediaMath or Client to any third party except where and to the extent permitted by the Agreement. This shall not prevent disclosure of the Model Clauses to a data subject or a supervisory authority pursuant to the Model Clauses.

11.
