Inclusion List

Also: Allowlist; Whitelist

A list of sites, apps, or channels a campaign is permitted to run on, replacing the open web with a curated set. Inclusion lists are the strongest brand safety and quality control available in programmatic and the standard approach for premium buyers. The trade-off is reduced scale and higher CPMs.
