egta TV Charter. Raising the bar: towards a fully transparent, measurable and accountable TV/video ecosystem

10/2019

 

egta and The Global TV Group adopt TV Charter which sets higher standards with regards to measurability, transparency of data and accountability than any other medium. The Charter was adopted by a vast majority of egta’s 155 member sales houses active in over 42 countries, as well as by notable industry trade bodies such as Screenforce (DE, AT, CH, FI, NL), Thinkbox (UK), ThinkTV (AU/CA) and the VAB (US) which comprise The Global TV Group. The set of simple principles aims to raise the bar with regards to measurability, transparency of data and accountability and defines first-time measurement standards for the entire TV industry. It serves as a reminder that TV’s premium environment – both on-air and online – already meets the legitimate demands from advertisers for brand safety, transparency and access to verified data, as outlined in the Global Media Charter, published by the World Federation of Advertisers in 2018.
