Extending the asa’s digital media remit • Thursday 26 August 2010
Background On 1 September an announcement is to be made announcing an extension of the Advertising Standards Authority’s digital media remit. This extends the existing self-regulatory rules for digital marketing to cover: misleading claims within marketing communications on advertiser’s own websites. misleading claims within marketing communications in other non paid-for space online, such as in social media. The IAB supports the extension to update the self-regulatory rules and protect internet users, particularly children. The extended remit will go live on 1 March 2011.
Who will pay for this? The ASA is funded via a 0.1% levy on media spend – so advertisers pay for the self-regulatory system. The levy is collected quarterly at the agency level. To help pay for the extended remit the levy is to be applied to the following: PPC search marketing Mobile marketing The levy is to also be considered for affiliate marketing using the networks existing billing and admin resources. In practice this means that the agency will bill the levy to clients and send the aggregate to Asbof (the collecting body) on a quarterly basis. Thoughts on the practicalities, potential issues, definitions and next steps?
Clarification • The ASA is paid for by advertisers (merchants) • Agencies / intermediaries are not being asked to pay anything. • They are being asked to help administer and collect advertiser payments as part of the normal billing • Agencies / intermediaries are not being asked to enforce the self-regulatory rules. • The liability lies with advertisers and it is the ASA’s job to enforce the rules.
