The Complete Guide to Zero-Party Data in 2023

Consumer trust is hard to earn and easy to lose. As Google edges closer to ceasing third-party cookie tracking, Apple introduces a raft of privacy controls and consumers become ever-more proactive about protecting their data, marketers need a new way of connecting with consumers online.

A philosophy steeped in growing long term relationships directly with consumers while understanding their true wants and needs to better deliver personalized products and services. To realize this, brands need to be powering personalization with the right class of data — zero-party data.
