Havas Media Network leveraged Viant’s advanced targeting technology within its industry-leading Demand-Side Platform (DSP) to conduct A/B tests against custom audiences from Havas Media’s Converged Audiences platform. The tests compared two strategies: one using cookies and the other without. The cookieless approach, achieving a 100% scale and a 93% unique reach, underscores how Viant's cookieless advertising technology delivers superior and scalable identity resolution solutions designed for the post-cookie world.

“To better serve our clients, we need to stay ahead of the challenges that they’re facing. Our cookieless activation with Viant and our Converged platform is a massive achievement for our agency, as we prove our ability to succeed without sacrificing performance or audience privacy,” said Greg James, CEO of Havas Media Network North America.

According to DoubleVerify, the US campaign achieved over 70% viewability and adhered to rigorous industry standards for brand safety from DoubleVerify and Ads.txt, ensuring privacy-compliant advertising.

“Our collaboration with Havas Media Network has proven that it is possible to maintain performance and reach target audiences effectively without relying on third-party cookies,” said Dustin Kwan, Chief Product Officer at Viant. “This successful test demonstrates the power of our Household ID technology and reinforces Viant’s commitment to pioneering solutions for the evolving digital advertising landscape.”

The Viant Household ID serves as a nexus point for marketers, data providers, and publishers, integrating with publisher first-party data to offer a holistic solution for targeting and measurement across various channels without the need for traditional cookies. This central identifier connects data points in a privacy-compliant manner, resolving programmatic identifiers and capturing more conversions than competitors, providing a solution to the deprecation of cookies and historical digital identifiers.

"Our partnership with Viant has enabled us to effectively navigate the challenges posed by the decline of third-party cookies," said Sarah Karges, SVP of Biddable Media at Havas Media Network. "We are thrilled with the results of the test, which demonstrate the power of our Converged Audiences platform in conjunction with Viant’s advanced identity solutions when preparing for a future that does not solely rely on third-party cookies.”
