Ad Exchange policies

Buyers' use of technology vendors

Ad Exchange buyers are allowed to use many technology vendors that utilize tools such as ad servers, research technologies, and remarketing. To implement, an advertiser calls another vendor's URL in their HTML snippet. This is considered a "4th party" call. A vendor must be explicitly approved to run on Ad Exchange. Some approved vendors are allowed to be called without further action, while others must be explicitly declared in the Ad technology box in the user interface. Any vendor not on the lists below is prohibited from being used in Ad Exchange. The lists below help determine:

  • if a technology vendor is approved to run on Ad Exchange, and
  • if a technology vendor needs to be declared in the buy-side user interface.
Vendors listed below are not necessarily certified to access the Google Display Network as third-party ad serving vendors. This article is explicitly for declaration via the Ad Exchange user interface. For the list of vendors certified to run on the Google Display Network, please refer to Requirements for third-party ad serving. Scroll to the "Requirements on the Google Display Network through the DoubleClick Ad Exchange" section, and expand "Vendors list (global)."

Approved with no declaration needed

These vendors do not need to be explicitly declared because they have been deemed unobjectionable by Ad Exchange sellers. Should a publisher or set of publishers representing 20% or more of the inventory in Ad Exchange object to a vendor, it will be moved to the “Vendors that need to be declared” list. For creatives that are booked directly, buyers need to select Image & Flash in the Ad technology box in the buy-side user interface when creating a third-party ad.


Non-Declarable Vendor List

Please ensure that the vendors below are not also listed under Declarable Vendors. The declaration is tied to format. Please speak with your DoubleClick Ad Exchange Technical Account Manager if further clarification is needed.

Approved, but declaration needed

These vendors need to be declared by buyers because one of the following apply:

  • Technical (e.g., expandables): The technology needs publisher implementation in order to run, or it could be disruptive to a publisher's web pages.
  • Large publishers concern: Ad Exchange publishers responsible for a large amount of inventory (i.e., one or more publishers representing 20% or more of available inventory) want to block the vendor.

For creatives that are booked directly, buyers must select these vendors in the Ad technology box in the buy-side user interface when creating a third-party ad.
