Empowering Publishers Amidst Industry Shifts and Privacy Regulations to Safeguard User Privacy and Drive Revenue Growth

Optable, a leading software-as-a-service (SaaS) data management & collaboration platform for the advertising ecosystem, announced its strategic partnership with Raptive, a company dedicated to powering creator independence. As part of this partnership, Raptive is now offering a comprehensive data collaboration solution to its advertising partners. This collaboration signifies a major step toward empowering publishers with comprehensive identity management and data collaboration capabilities, amid emerging privacy regulations and industry shifts such as the deprecation of third-party cookies.

Privacy has been a force of change in the media and advertising ecosystem, and with that change comes great opportunity. Many publishers are changing their strategy and retooling their organizations in order to adapt to this change. Comprehensive identity management and enrichment solutions are key to protecting revenue streams by helping to maintain and grow publishers’ addressable footprint. Additionally, data collaboration has emerged as a way for publishers to increase revenues by working more closely with their advertising partners’ data.
