Habu, the Global Innovator in Data Clean Room Software, today announced their integration with Google Display & Video 360’s PAIR, which supports ad planning, activation, and measurement in a privacy-safe way. The new solution enables advertisers and publishers to securely leverage and reconcile their first-party data to improve media performance in Google Display & Video 360 (DV360) and accelerate business growth.
Habu’s data clean room technology makes collaboration across decentralized data safe, simple, scalable, and smart. Its software is designed to make data collaboration secure and easy enabling companies to increase the velocity and value of data-driven initiatives by empowering them to work within and across distributed data environments to glean insights and execute advanced data science use cases with minimal resources.
Display & Video 360’s PAIR (Publisher Advertiser Identity Reconciliation) is a privacy-safe way for advertisers to activate and measure their first-party (authenticated and consented) audiences on specific publishers via Display & Video 360. Brands/advertisers on the buy side and publishers on the sell side can bring their first-party data and reconcile it securely to facilitate more efficient, accurate, and effective media buying and measurement on a 1:1 basis.
Habu’s clean room software integrated with Display & Video 360’s PAIR facilitates commutative encryption methodology to provide maximum security for advertisers, publishers, and consumers with respect to their data by enabling reconciliation without ever decrypting the data.
As the only fully interoperable clean room solution, Habu enables advertisers and publishers to utilize the PAIR protocol, no matter what cloud, platform, or stack. Built for both data scientists and business users, Habu’s integration with PAIR facilitates the reconciliation of publisher and advertiser first-party data for marketing use cases.
Habu’s customers will now have the opportunity to leverage PAIR within Habu’s data clean room software to securely collaborate with key partners to deliver more meaningful ads and optimize and improve advertising performance in Display & Video 360. In addition, it provides protection of your customers’ and visitors’ privacy, as the publisher/advertiser first-party data reconciliation happens without any other party, including Google, ever having access or visibility into another party’s data.
The Habu + Display & Video 360 PAIR integration enables:
Closer connection with known audiences to drive better performance on a 1:1 basis
Increased data privacy and security for advertiser activation on publisher inventory
Deeper level of collaboration with top media partners across the entire campaign lifecycle from planning to activation to measurement
"We’re excited to be working with Google to provide our customers with innovative and future-proof ways to connect with their customers while respecting their privacy,” said Mike Moreau, Co-Founder and COO at Habu. “Our integration with Display & Video 360’s PAIR empowers advertisers and publishers to benefit from the secure reconciliation of their first-party datasets to drive better media performance and ROI.”
This partnership further expands the areas of integration between Habu with Google Ads and Google Cloud. Habu also integrates with Ads Data Hub’s API and recently announced a partnership with Google Cloud to democratize clean room access and scale data collaboration for companies.

PROGRAMMATIC ADVERTISING
PR Newswire | May 05, 2023
Sonobi revealed a new programmatic advertising partnership with Captify and MediaMath to offer brands a path to launch or scale their CTV advertising efforts.
CTV, or connected television, is one of the fastest-growing opportunities for advertisers. However, there’s a major challenge: How can a brand be sure its targeted users are actually the ones watching? Programmatic CTV advertising has struggled to deliver targeted audiences, creating an environment with too little transparency and too much risk.
Industry leaders Sonobi, MediaMath, and Captify are teaming up to create a unique opportunity to connect brands with the users they want to target through connected television devices. By combining the expertise of all three trusted programmatic advertising partners, brands can expect a higher level of engagement, a better experience for the user, and more efficient ad spending with quality inventory and enhanced targeting.
“Through our partnership, we’re creating a more curated marketplace that will allow you to scale effectively,” Sonobi CEO Michael Connelly said.
Sonobi will primarily handle the supply side of the equation by leveraging a network of more than 50 CTV publishers as well as robust first- party data from proprietary push notification technology. Push notifications use a tracker that converts the user into a GO ID to create a numerical profile, and it's this profile, combined with the high quality search intent data from Captify and the demand from MediaMath, that makes this curated marketplace possible for CTV advertising.
The GO ID is the next evolution in understanding and targeting audience segments. But what if a user has five different profiles across the digital ecosystem? That's where identity pairing, which matches first-party data with GO IDs. By working together, Sonobi, MediaMath, and Captify can illuminate the segments brands are looking for with greater success than cookies alone could provide.
Captify's search intelligence platform enables the industry's only real-time intent audiences for CTV. "Extending Captify's technology into CTV with Sonobi and MediaMath has enabled marketers to achieve a new level of performance for their CTV campaigns. Coupled with our robust and proprietary insights packages, we are excited to power this solution for MediaMath's thousands of advertisers," Captify's SVP of Business and Corporate Development Matthew Papa said.
"MediaMath's clients are looking for easier ways to reach high intent audiences through CTV" said Jared Lansky, SVP Partnerships at MediaMath. "By bringing Sonobi and Captify into our Curated Markets offering, we are able to offer a turnkey solution that delivers those audiences in just one click".
