Amped is a US-based interactive content platform that enables marketers to create shoppable images, interactive landing pages, stories, and AMP-powered content experiences. It collects visitor interaction data and sets cookies for analytics and personalisation. Prior consent is required before Amped scripts load on European websites, and all data is processed in the US via Standard Contractual Clauses.
Amped is an interactive content creation platform that enables brands and publishers to build engaging digital experiences including shoppable images, interactive stories, quizzes, polls, and AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) content. It is used by media companies, retailers, and marketing teams to create content that drives higher engagement and conversion rates. When embedded on websites, Amped loads scripts that collect visitor interaction data and set cookies.
Amped collects visitor IP addresses, device and browser information, interaction events (clicks, scroll depth, time on content), conversion events, and session identifiers. For shoppable content, it may also track product views and purchase intent signals. All interaction data is linked to anonymous visitor identifiers and used for analytics and content performance reporting.
The ePrivacy Directive requires consent before non-essential Amped scripts load. The cookies Amped sets for analytics and engagement tracking are non-essential and require prior consent. The US data transfer requires Standard Contractual Clauses. Interaction data collected within Amped content experiences constitutes personal data when linked to identifiable visitor profiles.
