Sirdata RTD/SDA Module

Sirdata provides a disruptive API that allows publishers and curating SSPs to leverage its cutting-edge contextualization technology and its audience segments based on cookies and consent or without cookies nor consent, even in Europe!

User-based segments and page-level automatic contextual categories will be attached to bid request objects sent to different SSPs in order to optimize targeting.

Automatic or custom integration with Google Ad Manager and major bidders like Xandr/Appnexus, Smartadserver, Index Exchange, Proxistore, Magnite/Rubicon or Triplelift !

User’s country and choice management are included in the module, so it’s 100% compliant with local and regional laws like GDPR and CCPA/CPRA.

ORTB2 compliant and FPD support for Prebid versions < 4.29

Now supports Seller Defined Audience !

Please contact prebid@sirdata.com for more information.

Publisher Usage

Configure Prebid.js

Compile the Sirdata RTD module into your Prebid build:

gulp build --modules=rtdModule,sirdataRtdProvider

Add the Sirdata RTD provider to your Prebid config.

actualUrl MUST be set with actual location of parent page if prebid.js is loaded in an iframe (eg. postbid). It can be left blank (‘’) or removed otherwize.

partnerId and key should be provided by your partnering SSP or get one and your dedicated taxonomy from Sirdata (prebid@sirdata.com). Segments ids (user-centric) and category ids (page-centric) will be provided salted and hashed : you can use them with a dedicated and private matching table.

Should you want to allow a SSP or a partner to curate your media and operate cross-publishers campaigns with our data, please ask Sirdata (prebid@sirdata.com) to whitelist him it in your account.

Bidders can receive common setting : | Name |Type | Description | Notes | | :———— | :———— | :———— |:———— | | bidder | String | Bidder name | Mandatory if params.bidders are specified | | adUnitCodes | Array of String | Use if you want to limit data injection to specified adUnits for the bidder | Optional.

Default is 1000 |

Overriding data sharing function

As indicated above, it is possible to provide your own bid augmentation functions. This is useful if you know a bid adapter’s API supports segment fields which aren’t specifically being added to request objects in the Prebid bid adapter.

Please see the following example, which provides a function to modify bids for a bid adapter called ix and overrides the appnexus.
