Measures to protect the privacy of users online are getting stronger and can compromise brand marketing strategies. With limited access to consumer insights, it’s difficult for them to deliver a personalized experience, cross-sell and attract new customers. How to deal with data deprecation?

Why Does Data Depreciation Occur?
If you work in the world of marketing and digital communication, you may have heard of data depreciation through conversations with your peers or your monitoring. However, do you really know why it happens?
To understand this, you have to go back a little in time. For several years, brands have had access to consumer data without any real limits. This information was provided by major technology platforms and websites. They were then used to create profiles of individuals to target.
If this data fueled digital advertising for a while, it will soon be ancient history. They are doomed to disappear, for four main reasons:
- Privacy laws, like the GDPR in Europe or the CCPA in California, are getting tougher;
- Browsers and operating systems now restrict data sharing to protect user privacy;
- The proliferation of “walled gardens” by large companies in order to limit access to unapproved externals;
- Consumer privacy behavior has evolved.
