Trackers

Trackers in your organization's data manager is a centralized database of IAB declared trackers and trackers added by your organization. These trackers are assigned purposes, associated with vendors, and can be aggregated into tracker policies that can then be added to your properties.

The tracker database can be accessed by clicking Data Manager on the left-hand panel and then selecting Trackers on the subsequent page


Tracker overview

Your organization's tracker database comes pre-populated with all of the trackers disclosed by a vendor as part of their registration with the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB). The tracker database will automatically update as IAB vendors update their tracker disclosures.

In addition to the trackers that are automatically created in the database, your organization can also manually add trackers individually or via any configured Didomi scan that your organization utilizes.

As your organization continues to manage its trackers and those of its vendors please keep the following rules in mind when working with trackers in the Didomi platform:

  • Trackers cannot be added to IAB vendors

  • Existing trackers cannot be edited for IAB vendors

  • Trackers will inherit the category assigned to the vendor to which they are associated

  • Trackers will inherit the legal bases used for the purposes to which they are assigned
