Reporting

In order to preserve user experience, full page iPad ads are preloaded in the device’s memory prior to being displayed. As such, Fairfax reported impressions are only counted when the ad is brought into 100% view by the user. As a result, Fairfax reported impression counts are likely to be lower than those recorded by advertisers’ 3rd party ad servers – this is normal behaviour and in no way impacts the delivery or performance of full page ads. Therefore 3rd party impression tracking is supported but not recommended. 3rd party click tracking is supported.
