Ad copy in digital marketing often involves collecting and processing user data to personalize messaging and optimize campaign performance. Privacy Shield, as a data transfer framework between the EU and the US (though invalidated and replaced by other mechanisms like the EU-US Data Privacy Framework), historically governed how companies legally transferred personal data across borders. For marketers creating ad copy targeting EU citizens but operating with US-based platforms or data processors, compliance with Privacy Shield principles ensured that user data used to tailor ad copy was handled in a privacy-compliant manner. This compliance impacts how marketers segment audiences, personalize ad content, and manage consent mechanisms embedded within ad copy strategies. Therefore, Privacy Shield (or its successors) directly influences the legal boundaries and operational practices around data-driven ad copy creation and deployment in cross-border digital marketing campaigns, ensuring that personalized ad copy respects privacy regulations and avoids legal risks.
