Locomizer’s GDPR Compliant ‘Audience Discovery Platform’ Strengthened by US Patent Approval as Competitors Withdraw from Europe

Locomizer uses algorithms that discover and interpret behaviour that translate streams of location histories into abstract but targetable place profiles used by media agencies and brands for successful campaigns that match the right people to the right places.

LONDON, May 2, 2018

Locomizer, the award-winning provider of location analytics and anonymised audience research for global media agencies and brands today announced success in its application for its ‘Interest Profile of a User of a Mobile Application’ technology from the US Patent and Trademark Office. The ruling cements Locomizer’s lead in providing location data that is compliant with the stringent new European data privacy protection rules known as General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that become effective May 25th.

The GDPR legislation stops location based mobile advertising businesses from serving ads to users without their consent, which means from May 25th it will become more challenging to find the volume of inventory in the right locations for the ads and the buy rates will be significantly higher. “Our new patented technology allows Locomizer to provide a proven solution to media agencies and brands who still want to advertise directly to the right person in the right place and at the right time,” said Alexei Poliakov, Locomizer CEO and Co-Founder.

The cost for complying with the new privacy protection law combined with the diminishing sources of indirect location data has significantly impacted the marketplace of place profiling data suppliers.

“In addition to the highly publicised situation at Facebook, other US-based data providers have been forced to vacate the EU market, because they could no longer be legally compliant. By comparison, Locomizer’s algorithm extracts untapped insights from peoples’ locations, and all data collected and used is anonymised. This level of privacy protection is something our customers appreciate, particularly as privacy is built-in and we are GDPR compliant by design,” explained Poliakov.

Companies benefitting from Locomizer technology that increases campaign ROI range from Jameson Whiskey, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and GM to Clarins, McDonalds, Subway and Arla. It has also powered outdoor advertising agencies for global behemoths like Posterscope, Dentsu Aegis Network and Havas Media to media owners like JCDecaux, Clear Channel and Exterion Media.

A delighted Nick Halas, head of Innovation and Data at Posterscope says: “We’ve found our partnership with Locomizer incredibly valuable; using their platform we’ve opened up new levels of location targeting, which has allowed us to innovate faster and harder, and helped us win more business.”

“This award is the first in a series of global patent applications covering seven key markets including Europe and Asia. The US is central to our future success and this patent helps us to build further credibility for Locomizer’s Audience Discovery Platform that has created a completely new standard based on human interest rather than just physical locations,” said Poliakov.

Locomizer has been quick to recognise how the platform can be used across multiple market sectors and in various applications – from Smart Cities and Urban Planning to E-Commerce. Locomizer has also gained the trust of the commercial real estate market and now CBRE, the world’s largest commercial real estate firm, uses Locomizer’s platform to accurately match workforce requirements to places. This helps them and the organisations they serve to locate each work-place in the right location to attract and retain suitable talent.

Locomizer expands its geo-behavioural analytics to commercial real estate

/in /by

Locomizer today announces it has become a supplier to CBRE providing its location intelligence and audience insight services. Locomizer delivers unique geo-behavioural insight reports which give the ability for companies to identify and clarify which location will best serve their operational requirements, from both a consumer or workforce perspective.

The Locomizer platform is able to accurately match workforce requirements to a specified place and visa-versa, ensuring a business locates where it is most likely to be able to attract the talent necessary to provide a sustainable workforce. The application of the audience and site data allows commercial real estate companies to more effectively evaluate the advantages and suitability of one site to another.

“Our physical movement patterns reveal much about who we really are and by applying the Locomizer algorithm to historical geo-location and social media data, we are able to produce behavioural reports that are more powerful and meaningful for our clients ” said Locomizer co-founder Alexei Poliakov.

“Our starting point is in the understanding that each place has it’s own identity, which can change at different times of the day as people with specific interests come and go. Locomizer is able to profile both places and people then present these insights in an easily understood manor”.
