esbconnect & Mdeg Launch ideoOS: The UK’s Largest GDPR‑Compliant Consumer Dataset

BY Suzanna Chaplin

Today, esbconnect and Mdeg are proud to unveil ideo, the UK’s most powerful, GDPR-compliant dataset for identity resolution, audience targeting, and persona modelling. This landmark collaboration elevates deterministic data to a whole new level.

What is ideoOS?

  • Global scale, granular depth
    ideoOS combines ESB Connect’s and Mdeg’s datasets into a unified HEM‑IP graph featuring over 64 million hashed email‑to‑IP matches, postal addresses, and up to 440 data attributes

  • Compliance-first design
    Built from the outset to comply with GDPR, every data point in ideoOS is fully audit‑traced and permissioned.

  • Flexible delivery modes
    Access the dataset via scheduled log files or real‑time streaming API—complete with first‑sighting/resighting data for enhanced confidence scoring 

Why It Matters

  1. ID-resolution in a cookieless era
    The dataset connects email, cookie, MAID, and other identifiers, supporting deterministic identity solutions as third-party cookies disappear

  2. Targeted activations across channels
    Brands can leverage:

    • HEM‑driven audience segments

    • Integration with paid-social and programmatic platforms

    • Offline campaigns (postal)

  3. Persona modelling & identity verification
    Use ideoOS as a data file or real-time match feed—link browser/device/IP to hashed email, empowering instant persona detection

     

What This Means for Marketers

  • Scale & precision: Pinpoint niche audiences with unmatched granularity.

  • Omni-channel reach: From programmatic and paid social to email and postal campaigns.

  • Privacy-aligned innovation: Harness identity resolution without compromising compliance.

    “This is a game‑changer for UK advertisers in terms of the size and richness of the database… build highly targeted, niche audience segments”
    — Suzanna Chaplin, CEO, esbconnect
