behavioral data but non ad supported behavioral data which we trade or purchase for so we can see what people are doing outside of the ad supported internet and we also incorporate mobile data location based data app data that variety of different data is sort of the raw ingredients to consumer behavioral profile that is unique in the integration of all those data and those data sets

via a CPM or revenue share, just like the traditional media business.

However, decoupling the data from our own activation platform has allowed us to be more ubiquitous.

If you want to activate against our industry-leading performant audiences on the trade desk or at Nexus or the platform of your choice, you can now acquire our data, either our syndicated segments or custom segments built just for your brand via any platform that you like.

But

20% of the media dollar is a pretty standard rate.

So in the case of a brand who's advertising, who's buying digital media via the trade desk and they buy a dollar worth of media against our audiences, we take 20 cents of that dollar.

In terms of data revenue, so the 20% that we take, it's been approximately $5 million.
