“Data Clean Rooms have become a staple across industries in the face of third-party cookie deprecation and Snowflake is uniquely positioned to help marketers across the ecosystem realize the benefits of secure, cloud-agnostic data collaboration,” said Kamakshi Sivaramakrishnan, Samooha Co-Founder and Snowflake Data Clean Rooms Director of Product Management. “Snowflake Data Clean Rooms allow customers to unlock high value business outcomes with their data, all while ensuring data stays private and secure.” Data clean rooms have been initially adopted by media and entertainment companies as a way to provide personalized experiences and services for their customers especially given the evolving technology and regulatory privacy context. The technology continues to gain traction in other highly regulated industries like financial services and healthcare for secure collaboration on highly sensitive data. Customers across industries are already using Snowflake’s platform for secure data collaboration and, with the introduction of Snowflake Data Clean Rooms, will now have access to additional privacy and governance capabilities.
