Overview
ADFACT is a digital advertising tracking and measurement company. Advertisers use ADFACT to verify that their display ad campaigns are delivering impressions and clicks as reported, and to measure campaign performance.
What This Script Does
The ADFACT script fires impression and click tracking pixels within display ad units. Each pixel request records that an ad was viewed or clicked, along with metadata such as the page URL, timestamp, and ad placement. This data is aggregated for campaign performance reporting. The script may set cookies for frequency capping (limiting how many times a user sees the same ad) and deduplicating conversion events.
