Vendors

In the Didomi Console, a vendor represents an entity granted access to end-user data for processing, aligned with specified purposes.

Types of vendors in the Data Manager

The Didomi Console supports the following types of vendors:

• Global vendors: A predefined set of common vendors created by Didomi.
• IAB vendors: Vendors registered with the IAB TCF framework, linked to the IAB purposes they have selected. View the full list here.
• Google ATP vendors: Vendors listed in Google’s Ad Technology Providers (ATP) list, also linked to their chosen IAB purposes. View the list here.
• Custom vendors: Vendors you create to address specific privacy requirements.

Note: A 1st party vendor is automatically created for your organization to represent your entity's data processing. Learn more here.

Configuring custom vendors

For custom vendors, you can configure the following:

• Name: Specify the vendor's name.
• Privacy policy link: Provide a URL to the vendor's privacy policy.
• Type: Choose between 1st party or 3rd party.
• Purposes: Assign purposes and their legal bases (consent or legitimate interest).
• Storage information: Add cookie and additional storage details.
• Contact information: Provide the vendor’s address, email, or phone number (preferably for a privacy contact).
• SDK ID: Define a custom SDK ID in the Advanced section.

Notes about purpose settings

• For Global vendors, you can fully edit their purposes by adding or removing them.
• For IAB vendors, Google ATP vendors, and Google vendors, you can add purposes but cannot remove their IAB purposes.
