DoubleVerify Receives Third Consecutive Certification for Online Ad Viewability from the Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC)

DoubleVerify IQ Viewability Advanced Product Awarded Continued ABC Certification

LONDON – DoubleVerify (DV), the recognised leader in digital quality solutions, announced it has received certification from ABC for the third consecutive year for its IQ Viewability Advanced solution. The accreditation further validates the effectiveness of DV solutions to optimise digital media investments by ensuring an ad is viewable to a consumer.

DV solutions successfully met all the criteria of the rigorous ABC testing performed, including tracking ad viewability within multiple cross-domain iFrames on all four of the audited browsers, which has historically been an industry blind spot.
