With nugg.ad’s Mobile Solutions publishers can provide brand advertisers with quality audiences at scale and realtime measurement and optimisation of brand campaign metrics such as brand awareness, brand affinity and intention to purchase.”

nugg.ad’s Mobile Solutions apply the principle of data minimisation and do not use any sensitive data, such as mobile numbers or any reference to individual users. nugg.ad complies with the highest data protection standards and has been awarded several privacy and data protection certificates.
