-# Collective Sync Architecture

-Trusted Server supports cross-publisher data sharing through a **Collective Sync** model. Publishers who share the same EC secret key can synchronize user data across their properties, enabling privacy-preserving audience insights without third-party cookies.
+Trusted Server supports ID syncing. Publishers who have engaged in an agreement with identity partners can use our sync endpoints found below.
