RESTON, Va., Oct. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- With third-party cookie deprecation coming, advertisers and publishers need bold new solutions to ensure that their campaigns continue to reach the right audiences. That's why Comscore (Nasdaq: SCOR), a trusted partner to more than 3,000 clients across local stations, national networks, station groups, advertising and media agencies, and the entire Movies ecosystem, is excited to launch Predictive Audiences in Canada – representing the industry's first cookie-free targeting capability that enables advertisers to reach audiences based on granular consumer behavior through privacy-friendly contextual signals.
