eXelate, the First and Largest Targeting Data Exchange, Joins NAI

eXelate brings publisher-centric data control and privacy management approach to the industry's leading trade association

NEW YORK, May 13 /PRNewswire/ -- eXelate, the creator of the world's first and largest exchange for targeting data, today announced that the company has joined the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI), a coalition of leading online advertising companies that have established standards for protecting Web consumer privacy with respect to online adverting practices.

eXelate's Targeting eXchange is the only targeting data eXchange which enables publishers reaching over 120M UV to not only monetize the full value of their audience data in a privacy-friendly manner, but also gain insight on audience activity and control over data distribution. With the revenue challenges facing leading publishers, combined with the increased government scrutiny on how audience data is handled, eXelate not only enables publishers to create a new revenue stream through eXelate's data marketplace, it gives them exclusive privacy management tools that exceed industry privacy standards.

"At eXelate, we see our role in the NAI as champions of not only consumer data rights and transparency, but the rights of publishers to fairly benefit from this data as well," said Meir Zohar, CEO and founder, eXelate. "We're working to ensure that publishers have the tools to monetize their audience data in a way that respects the privacy of web consumers."

"With the growing importance of data exchanges in the online advertising eco-system, we're pleased to have eXelate commit to NAI's Code of Conduct," says Director of Operations & Development Jim Campbell. "eXelate will be a valuable participant in the NAI's efforts to foster meaningful self-regulation across diverse business models for third-party online advertising."

eXelate's publisher privacy management and data control tools are only available to publisher members of the eXelate targeting exchange. To see eXelate's privacy tools in action, please visit http://www.exelate.com/new/consumers-optoutpreferencemanager.html.
