The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) have made changes to internet advertising regulations in a move that could affect a number of online gambling companies servicing the UK market. The new rules, released today, concern online behavioral advertising (OBA) and relate to the general public. Ad networks must now make clear that adverts have been behaviorally targeted, by putting an icon in the corner of ads. They will also have to allow consumers to opt-out of receiving the targeted ads. OBAs are basically ads that use web viewing behavior information collected by web browsers to deliver targeted ads that will be of interested to each individual person. You only need peruse the advertising policy of the likes of Zynga to see that companies in the industry have been taking it seriously for some time and the impact it has on gambling advertisers remains to be seen.
