RTB House Editorial Team

In early 2020, Google first announced its intention to retire third-party cookies from Chrome. Despite numerous twists and turns, one thing remains certain: the relevance of third-party cookies is on a downward trend across most browsers, and this will likely affect Chrome as well. This development has marketers worried about the future of personalized and relevant advertising. The good news is they don’t need to be concerned. RTB House has managed to fine-tune Chrome’s new cookieless tool—the Privacy Sandbox—so that it can tailor ads to specific users while protecting their privacy. How is this possible, and what role does the Product-Level Turtledove play in the process? Let’s dive into it.
