Ketch and Snapchat

Match a person across whichever identifier Snapchat happens to have for them, and keep their opt-out and deletion status current either way.

About Snapchat

Snapchat advertising runs immersive, full-screen ad formats matched to audiences built from email, phone, or mobile advertiser identifiers, in either raw or hashed form. That variety in identifier types is exactly where consent and deletion enforcement usually breaks down: a mechanism built for only one identifier format misses everyone matched through another.

Ketch connects to Snapchat to handle both consent and deletion across the full range of identifier types Snapchat supports.

Capabilities

How Ketch works with Snapchat

The Ketch Snapchat integration covers Consent Orchestration and Rights Orchestration (Right to Delete).One Snapchat-specific mechanic worth knowing: opt-out audience segments Ketch creates only become available for ad targeting once they reach a minimum threshold of 1,000 customer email address matches with Snapchat's audience pool. Below that threshold, the segment exists but isn't yet usable for exclusion in campaigns.

Consent Orchestration

Syncs consent choices into Snapchat through the same workflow used for every other connected system.

Rights Orchestration

Fulfills Right to Delete against Snapchat through the same workflow used for every other connected system. It supports six identifier types: email (raw or MD5, with Ketch hashing raw emails on your behalf for added security), email (SHA256), phone number (raw or SHA256), and Mobile Advertiser ID (raw or SHA256). Whichever identifier format a person is matched on, both consent and deletion enforcement apply.

With Ketch, teams can

  • Enforce consent and deletion across six different identifier types Snapchat supports, rather than a single format that misses some matches
  • Automatically build opt-out audience segments ready to exclude from campaign targeting once they clear Snapchat's own matching threshold
  • Route Snapchat rights and consent requests through the same workflows used for every other connected system

The gap

The problem this integration solves

Snapchat's identifier flexibility is useful for matching, but it creates real complexity for consistent enforcement:

01. A consent or deletion mechanism built around only one identifier type (say, plain email) misses anyone matched through a hashed identifier or a mobile advertiser ID instead

02. Snapchat's own matching threshold means a freshly created opt-out segment isn't immediately usable for targeting, which is easy to misunderstand as a broken integration rather than a platform-side minimum

03. Manually tracking which of six possible identifier formats applies to a given person doesn't scale

Ketch resolves this by supporting all six identifier types Snapchat recognizes from one connection, and by being upfront about the 1,000-match threshold so teams don't mistake platform behavior for a failure.

Why Ketch

Why teams choose Ketch for Snapchat privacy compliance

Permissioning infrastructure that governs Snapchat the same way it governs every other system in your stack — not a one-off connector bolted onto a banner.

  • Covers every identifier format Snapchat supports

    Six distinct identifier types, raw and hashed, mean consent and deletion enforcement don't depend on which specific identifier happens to be available for a given person.

  • Honest about platform-side thresholds

    The 1,000-match requirement for audience targeting is stated plainly rather than left for a team to discover on their own and mistake for a setup error.

  • Backed by enforcement precedent

    The California Privacy Protection Agency fined Honda $632,000 over improperly configured data sharing with ad-tech partners, a reminder that immersive, high-engagement ad formats carry the same underlying consent obligations as any other targeted advertising.
