Privacy-preserving analytics

As explained in First-Party Data Activation

Analytics that derive aggregate or useful insights while limiting disclosure of information about individual people.

Privacy-preserving analytics derives useful campaign insights while limiting disclosure about individuals. It supports performance measurement through aggregated data and privacy-enhancing techniques rather than invasive tracking or profiling. section 2.3.4

Common applications include:

  • Applying differential privacy to A/B testing so campaign performance can be measured while keeping user data secure. section 2.3.4
  • Combining first-party data with aggregated insights for privacy-centric targeting, including contextual targeting. section 2.3.4
  • Using collaborative filtering and anonymization to personalize content without retaining large amounts of personal data. section 2.3.4
