Badge & Risk Assessment
- Badge: ⚠️ Caution
- Red Flags:
- RF1 — Own advertising / cross-service profiling
- RF2 — High-risk third-country exposure without meaningful mitigation
- Risk Indicators:
- Cross-publisher ad profiling; high-risk international transfers
Reasoning & Sources
Key Facts: Index Exchange is an SSP that processes cross-publisher audience signals for programmatic advertising. Canadian company; data processed in North America (RF2). Index Exchange Europe entity; SCCs.
Framework Note (v2.2): FRAMEWORK NOTE (v2.2): RF2 (high-risk third-country exposure) is recorded here as a significant risk factor and lowers the domain E score. Under the revised framework, RF2 alone does not trigger Caution — the Caution badge for this service is driven by RF1 / RF3 / RF4 (as noted above). The US transfer risk (where applicable) is covered by DPF participation and/or SCCs, which GDPR treats as a compliant transfer mechanism.
