Scheduled
A planned software maintenance will take place on 2020-02-19 at 11am EST.
This update introduces the following change: - Podcast Ad delivery engine uses advertiser’s IAB category to perform “competitive separation” or “competitive exclusion”. This blocks multiple advertisers/brands that are competitive with one another from being served in the same download.
The unique combination of the category and sub-category need to be matched by another advertiser for category separation to occur. i.e. IAB13 - Personal Finance + IAB13-2 Credit/Debt & Loans is ONE category and competitive separation will only be performed if another advertiser has that unique IAB combination assigned as well.
Same Advertiser Behaviour Competitive separation does not occur for flights which are assigned to the same advertiser. i.e. if you have multiple flights with the same advertiser assigned then both flights can deliver in the same download.
Over-riding Competitive Separation The 'IAB24 - Uncategorized' category is special and competitive separation will not apply. This means that an uncategorized flight can run alongside any other flight.
Please note that there is no interruption to ad-serving or reporting data collection during this maintenance. If you have any questions, please contact us by creating a Support ticket.
