V31  (June 17, 2021)

Updates:

Google Additional Vendor List Customization

• Problem/Use case:
  Many Choice clients have reported that adding the full Google additional vendor list to the ad request runs risk to overrun the max URL length. This is specifically a problem with AMP powered pages but can also happen on regular web pages. Several clients mentioned that they only need a small subset of the Google vendors present on the list.
• Provided solution:
  We added customization for the Google additional vendor list to the "Vendors" section. You find it under the tab "Google Vendors". The vendor table allows you to configure which vendors you work with (vendors can be un/selected).
  To enable Google additional vendors you need to enable the checkbox in the corresponding section under "add a site" or "add an app" respectively.

Support for CCPA for Mobile Apps

We also added support for CCPA for mobile apps under the "add an app". A new section was added to configured the require properties for CCPA.
