A unique and comprehensive dataset from Annalect, the data management division of the Omnicom Group, a leading global advertising, and marketing communications services company.

Data includes:

• Details about the exposure, including the type of ad, description, and size of the creative, and the campaign the creative was part of
• Information about whether the user clicked on the ad, and if that click eventually led to a conversion
