BidStream Filters
High quality traffic is one of the guarantees of the Aidem DSP. To reach this goal Aidem filters the incoming impressions and tags them appropriately in order to avoid bidding on fraudolent traffic.
Fraudolent traffic is tagged through Segments, which are then excluded through Line Item targeting. This is visible in the User section of Line Items' targeting.
A number of Segments are activated by default in every single Line Item to filter out fraudolent traffic. The segments used to filter out fraudolent traffic can be deactivated only through formal request.
You can read more about Segments in Line Item Targeting.
