Cookieless identity

First-party identity for publishers

Browsers block third-party cookies, and advertising built on them is shrinking. UniSignIn identifies readers on your own domains and turns that identity into audiences you control.

First-party identity for publishers

Your domain, your identity

Readers are recognised by your sites, not by an outside tracker.

Anonymous and registered

Profiles cover readers before they sign up and join up with their account when they log in.

Ready for your ad stack

Segments go to Google Ad Manager as key-values and to Prebid as first-party user data.

Why third-party cookies are going

Third-party cookies let other companies follow readers from site to site. Safari and Firefox already block them, and publishers who depend on them for ad revenue need another way to identify their audience.

  • Identity that belongs to you and your readers
  • Data readers chose to give you, with consent

Questions

Does this need third-party cookies?+

No. Readers are identified on your own domains, and segments are passed to your ad server with each ad request.

Which ad platforms can use the segments?+

Google Ad Manager, through key-values, and Prebid, as first-party user data that bidders can read.

What happens where GDPR applies?+

UniSignIn follows the reader’s TCF consent. Readers who have not given consent are not profiled or shared.
