To run ads on secure (HTTPS) sites, your creatives must be HTTPS compatible. You can mark them as secure or not. Only secure creatives can access secure (HTTPS) inventory. Be careful not to label a creative as secure unless it's verified, or your ad may not display on certain sites.
Creative Types
Image & Video Creatives | Image and Video creatives uploaded via Drag & Drop or 'Select File' will automatically be hosted in an https-compatible environment and set as secure |
HTML5 Creatives | HTML5-creatives uploaded and hosted on BidTheatre's servers may need to be manually set as secure. For a HTML5 creative to be secure, each of the assets hosted in the creative need to be secure |
Third Party Tags | Third party tags may need to be manually set as secure. Please consult your third party vendor about https compatibility of tags. |
Native Ads | Native ads need to be manually set as secure |
Note: All types of creatives created via the 'New ad' button must be manually set as secure.
