Adobe Advertising Universal ID Requirements Policy
Last updated: February 29, 2024
This Universal ID Requirements Policy (“Policy”) sets forth the requirements for the use of Universal IDs in connection with Ads distributed via Adobe’s On-demand Services for Adobe Advertising (“Services”). This Policy is incorporated by reference into the Agreement between Adobe and the Customer (“you”) using the On-demand Services. Capitalized terms used in this Policy but not defined herein will have the meaning set forth in that Agreement.
Adobe reserves the right to determine, in its sole judgment, whether an Ad or the website(s) to which the Ad redirects or links, violate the requirements of this Policy, in which event Adobe may reject such Ad and/or terminate or suspend access to the Services on that basis.
In addition to the requirements set forth below and in the Agreement, you must comply with the requirements imposed by each Universal ID provider with which you choose to engage as well as those imposed by any supply side platform (SSP) or other platform used to deliver any of your Ads. It is your responsibility to understand and comply with the policies of the publishers and platforms through which you deliver Ads.
