Beyond Cookie-Less: What Will Advertising Look Like Without Identifiers?
Nativo
Frequently Asked Questions
What does "cookie-less" advertising mean?
Cookie-less advertising refers to ad ecosystems and targeting methods that do not rely on third-party cookies or persistent personal identifiers to identify and target users. It emphasizes contextual signals, on-site data, aggregated cohorts, and privacy-preserving techniques.
If cookies disappear, can IP addresses be used instead?
IP addresses are increasingly unreliable as a replacement. Consumers and devices often mask or tunnel IPs for privacy and security, and IP-based approaches raise privacy concerns and accuracy issues—making them a weak long-term solution.
What replaces targeting and addressability when identifiers are prohibited?
The article argues that relevance and knowledge of the customer will replace traditional targeting. This means focusing on first-party data, contextual signals, aggregated insights, and delivering experiences that prioritize consumer needs and interests rather than granular identifier-based targeting.

Relevance and knowledge of the customer will replace targeting and addressability, and prioritize the consumers needs and interests.
