While a paid member if the IAB, I was honoured to be asked to co-chair their Data Council working group, where I was very focused on informing and educating on the digital advertising industry's approach to data and privacy. With events and handbooks offering in-depth analyses of data and privacy practices, we developed educational resources such as the Data Collaboration Platforms Explainer and the First Party Data Handbook, equipping professionals with tools to navigate the evolving landscape. The council also conducted industry surveys and events, revealing trends in first-party data usage and privacy preparedness. Through these efforts, we fostered a more informed and adaptable digital advertising ecosystem in Australia, helping businesses respond effectively to regulatory changes and technological shifts in data management and privacy protection leading up to draft privacy reform being introduced into the house.

The council also aims to establish best practices and guidelines on the effective uses of data for Australian businesses and for the particular marketing functions for which that data will be used.The IAB Data Council was convened in 2018 to provide the industry with education on the definitions and management of data, as well as applicable information around the execution, usage and interrogation of data commonly used in digital advertising.
