Privacy is a feature, not a limitation
PRX is a mission-driven and privacy-first technology organization, with data privacy built into everything we create. Nothing is more valuable than the trust of our listeners, supporters, and users.
We built Dovetail to uphold the highest standards of privacy in how we serve shows and sponsorship to listeners while still implementing complex, dynamic, and programmatic ad tech.
Even as they grow and strengthen, we will remain ahead of privacy laws and regulations around the world, leading rather than implementing the bare minimum.
