OBA self-regulation

Developed by leading industry associations to apply consumer-friendly standards to online behavioural advertising across the Internet, the self-regulatory program consists of seven principles that correspond with the “Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising” proposed by the Federal Trade Commission in February 2009 that also address public education and industry accountability issues raised by the Commission. In Europe, the the OBA self-regulatory programme is administered by the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (EDAA).
