What is the difference between Mobile and Desktop Data Streams?

Mobile Data Stream is application-based, while Desktop Data Stream is browser-based. This difference has a big potential in terms of data transparency. Mobile Data Stream doesn’t need cookie matching process for identification purposes, as the desktop one does need it. Desktop data collecting needs to have an integrated channel for the user’s cookie file, which is a tremendous subject now since modern browsers are turning this option off because of data privacy issues.

So, mobile data gathering is much safe, as its process is based on Mobile Advertising ID matching, which makes data operations more private. Additionally, MAID has a longer lifetime comparing with cookies, which means it’s a more reliable material for targeting purposes.  

What Mobile App Data Stream is else for?

  • You can build a powerful campaign with a big scope of advertising reach thanks to high quality geolocation data.
  • You can integrate with your in-app partner and receive a mobile dataset about their users, with their consent being received. This way you can increase your customer network and find new clients.
  • Fraud detection – raw mobile data can be used as source data for an anti-fraud algorithm. For example, analysis of the actions timestamps or the number of their occurrences can deliver results that would detect fraud or other so-called Non-Human Traffic.
