Probabilistic Attribution

With the iOS 14 update, Apple has introduced new privacy features that aim to protect users' personal information, making it increasingly difficult for advertisers to accurately monitor user behavior and attribute conversions.

However, by using probabilistic attribution for a long chain of redirects, we can still accurately measure the effectiveness of our campaigns while maintaining compliance with Apple's policies. To implement this solution, we recommend adding an affiliate privacy postback in Offer18, which will allow us to push conversion data back to you without compromising user privacy.​
