The DSA represents a significant regulatory shift affecting digital platforms in the EU and UK, with particular emphasis on mobile advertising transparency.
What is the Digital Services Act (DSA)?
Effective February 16, 2024, this EU regulatory framework mandates that online platforms, as specified in Article 26 of the DSA, must provide real-time source information for each advertisement to users in the EU and the UK.
Which Inventory Falls Under the DSA?
The regulation applies to all digital inventory within EU and UK regions.
