Audience membership duration
Membership duration is how long a delivered identifier remains active in the destination audience before the destination platform expires it. It is distinct from the dataset’s retention policy (which governs data stored in Narrative) and the interface’s refresh window (which governs how stale the source dataset may get).
Because the expiration is stamped on each delivered record, every delivery renews the clock: an identifier expires the configured duration after the last delivery that included it. To keep members from lapsing between deliveries, the connection’s refresh cadence should be shorter than the configured duration.
Opt-outs
Yahoo DSP supports opt-out processing. When users opt out through your data subject request workflow, those opt-outs can be propagated to Yahoo DSP.Related content
