Experian and Snowflake: Creating more connectivity in programmatic advertising

Published: September 18, 2024 by Experian Marketing Services

After a six-month beta period, collaboration in Snowflake Data Clean Rooms using Experian’s offline or digital graph is now generally available for all clients. As part of this, Experian is excited to announce that Experian’s identity graph will be integrated into Snowflake’s Data Clean Rooms. With the growing importance of data privacy and marketing efficiency, this partnership builds off of Experian’s previously-announced integration into Snowflake’s AI Data Cloud for Media.

Adding Experian’s identity graph to Snowflake Data Clean Rooms helps advertisers, advertising platforms, and measurement partners work more effectively. Built upon Experian’s rich offline and digital identity foundation, with support for various identifiers across platforms, collaboration in Snowflake Data Clean Rooms helps clients maximize the value of their data and meet the diverse needs of modern business:

  • Collaborate with partners for richer data insights
  • Achieve higher match rates
  • Improve audience building
  • Produce more accurate and complete reports
  • Ensure data privacy
  • Seamless integration of AdTech and MarTech platforms

Regardless of the identifier type you are looking to collaborate on, Experian has the identity data in Snowflake Data Clean Rooms to support you and your partner. This leads to higher match rates and more resolved data for you to use to benefit your media initiatives.

“Integrating Experian’s identity graph into Snowflake Data Clean Rooms marks a transformative leap for digital marketing. This collaboration empowers advertisers, programmatic platforms, and measurement partners with unparalleled accuracy, privacy, and efficiency. Together, we are excited to provide innovative solutions to meet the evolving needs of our clients.”

The Experian and Snowflake partnership showcases how collaboration can enhance scalability and cost-efficiency. Data clean rooms provide a secure environment where multiple parties can share, join, and analyze their data assets without leaving the clean room or exposing the underlying data. By integrating Experian’s identity graph within Snowflake’s secure platform businesses of all sizes can receive advanced data collaboration and identity tools without the high costs usually involved.

The integration prioritizes consumer privacy and data security. Backed by Experian’s Global Data Principles, Experian’s deep roots in data protection and security provide customers with the most trusted way to share data and protect consumer privacy. With Experian’s graph in Snowflake Data Clean Rooms, customers will get a solution that respects customer consent, safeguards sensitive data, and ensures that processing occurs with the utmost respect for user confidentiality and preferences.  

Further, Snowflake Data Clean Rooms uses advanced methods to preserve privacy, such as differential privacy and secure computations on encrypted data, enabling data security and integrity. Together, these methods prevent unauthorized access by keeping sensitive data within the secure confines of the cleanroom on a strict, collaboration-to-collaboration basis.

The collaboration between Experian and Snowflake significantly enhances data matching and identity resolution within the Snowflake Data Cleanroom. Experian’s identity solution uses digital identifiers like hashed emails, MAIDs, and CTV IDs and offline identifiers like name and address. This allows advertisers to reach more consumers and enrich their data. Marketers can easily use their first-party data in the cleanroom, and with Experian’s Graph, they get higher match rates for more accurate targeting and campaign measurement.

The continued partnership between Snowflake and Experian provide advertisers, platforms, and measurement providers a secure and effective way to collaborate. This sets the stage for continued innovation in programmatic advertising, ensuring that our solutions evolve in step with our clients’ needs.  

If you’re not utilizing clean rooms for collaboration but have advanced identity needs, you can license our Graph and seamlessly integrate it into your Snowflake account.
