A privacy-centric data warehouse

Ads Data Hub is built in a privacy-safe way, and its functionality differs significantly from other data warehousing solutions. Even experts with experience using other clean rooms and data warehousing solutions may need to learn how to operate effectively in Ads Data Hub.

Ads Data Hub protects user privacy in the following ways:

  • Underlying data cannot be inspected, as doing so would violate Ads Data Hub’s goal to share data in aggregate to prevent the re-identification of end users.
  • When privacy checks are triggered, rows can be filtered without warning.
  • Some privacy checks compare against your historical results, and can be triggered if your results don’t change adequately between jobs.

Privacy checks Policies
In order to help users operate effectively amidst privacy checks in Ads Data Hub, the platform includes a synthetic dataset. This dataset isn’t subject to privacy checks, and as such should be used for experimentation and query development. The sandbox can improve your query development workflow by giving you a better understanding of the underlying data.
