Background
We are seeking to represent businesses who used Google technology to purchase online ads. The investigation is likely to conclude in the commencement of a claim seeking that advertisers be repaid some of the fees they have paid to Google for the use of Google’s ad sale technology, which we will allege Google was only able to charge as high fees as it did, because of anti-competitive conduct.
Group members
Slater and Gordon wants to hear from businesses of any size that purchase online ad space using Google’s advertising technology – this includes both display advertising and online search advertising since May 2019. If you have used any of the following technology, you are encouraged to register your interest now:
- Google Ads/AdWords
- DV360
- AdX
You are invited to register even if your ads are purchased through an advertising agency, rather than purchased by you individually.
Registering your interest simply allows you to provide us with information to assist the investigation, and will not expose you to legal fees.

FAQs
A class action is a type of legal claim, where one person or business files a claim with the Court as the representative on behalf of people who have been affected or claims that arise out of the same, similar or related circumstances. It is a way of hearing related claims together that is efficient and cost-effective for all the affected parties and the Court, because of how similar those claims are.
If you have used any of Google’s technology to purchase online advertising space over the last six years, you are invited to register.
