About DAA Middle East

About Adchoices.me
The Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) Middle East AdChoices program for the GCC is a self-regulatory initiative for the online interest-based advertising (IBA) industry. It aims to give consumers more control over their online data and their ads. The AdChoices icon, a small blue triangle with the letters "AdChoices" inside, is placed on or near online advertisements that are part of the IBA ecosystem. This icon is served by participating companies and allows consumers to see what data companies have collected about them and to opt out of receiving interest-based ads. In India, the necessary regulations for digital data protection are still in the draft stage. You can get ready in time.
