TransUnion and Epsilon Collaborate to Bring ID-Agnostic Audiences to Connected TV and Streaming Audio Campaigns – GuruFocus.com

CHICAGO, June 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TransUnion (: TRU) announced today a partnership to make data from Epsilon, a global advertising and marketing technology company, available via the TruAudience Data Marketplace.

The relationship marks one of the largest audience targeting partnerships across Connected TV, smart speakers and gaming consoles. Brands and agencies can now access audience insights from Epsilons top-ranked consumer database of 250 million U.S. consumers mapped across TransUnions household identity graph covering more than 80 million U.S. connected homes. Through this partnership, brands and agencies can create custom audiences based on thousands of attributes, thereby allowing them to reach each person with personalized messages across channels.

Approximately 80% of OTT viewing time occurs on home-based devices like connected TVsi and 100 million Americans own at least one smart speakerii, neither of which generate cookies and often do not have device IDs.

TransUnions patented method combines many digital signals and identifiers from these connected devices as well as personal devices to create a view of each connected household. This makes the audience-verified integration of Epsilon data into the TruAudience Data Marketplace ID-agnostic and able to withstand the deprecation of cookies and other identifiers across streaming media.

"As mobile IDs and cookies continue to deprecate, having the ability to leverage audiences from Epsilon in an ID-agnostic way across our leading activation partners will enable greater scale and reach, said Michelle Swanston, VP of Media and Entertainment and Head of Data Marketplace at TransUnion. This relationship will help meet the ever-increasing demand for advanced audience targeting across streaming media.
