Adform prepares files approximately every 60 minutes.
-
File sizes vary based on client specifics and can range from a few kilobytes to over one gigabyte.
-
Adform stores these files for 7 days, but can store files for up to 2 months for an extra charge.
Note
Master data is available for an additional fee. For more information, please contact your Adform representative.
