The technology possessed by Tyroo Media will convert a static banner ad into a live banner ad.
Tyroo Media, the digital ad network of Yahoo! and Smile Interactive Technologies, will offer dynamic re-targeting options for banner advertising to advertisers.
Speaking to afaqs!, Nitin Chowdhary, business head, Tyroo Media, India, explains, "In the dynamic re-targeting facility, we will track the internet user's behaviour on a particular website -- part of Tyroo Media ad network -- or ad unit, and based on the interaction of the user with the site or ad unit, we will serve the banner ad, whenever the user returns to the site again."

He emphasises that the privacy of the user will not be intruded upon, and personal details like e-mail addresses will not be tracked by the agency. Dynamic re-targeting capable banner ads will be sold on performance-based model, and will be priced higher than plan banner ads.
