2021 was a banner year for consumer privacy.
Since the twenty-teens, the increasing consumer skepticism of tracking and targeting technologies, coupled with privacy protection measures taken by government bodies and tech companies, has felt like a slow but steady trickle.
In contrast, 2021 opened the floodgates. In January, Google announced public testing of its Privacy Sandbox initiative. In April, Apple released iOS 14.5, granting iPhone users the ability to opt out of app tracking. In June, Google adjusted their timeline for phasing out third-party cookies.
As consumers, tech companies, and government regulators continue to create the new normal of privacy in advertising, there’s a lot for advertisers to track and consider. If you're looking for a one-stop-shop to help you thoroughly understand the consumer privacy landscape in 2021 and beyond, start by reviewing the articles below—a comprehensive listing of Basis’ identity-related content from 2021.
