Privacy notice

Last updated 1 August 2026

Two separate things happen here: you send us an application, and our tag serves ads on your site. This page covers both, in that order.

1. When you apply

The application form collects only what's needed to quote a rate:

  • Site URL, traffic volume, desktop share, site type and country mix
  • Your current network and eCPM, if you choose to share them
  • Your Telegram handle and, optionally, an email address
  • Preferred payment method and deal type
  • Anything you write in the notes field

This is used to price your inventory and to contact you about it. It is not sold, not shared with advertising networks, and not used to build any profile of you. Applications that don't lead to a deal are deleted within 12 months.

2. When you become a publisher

We additionally hold your payment details — wallet address or bank details — your agreed rates and caps, and a record of every payment made to you. Payment records are kept for as long as we're required to keep accounting records.

3. What the ad tag collects

When our tag requests a decision for a visitor to your site, we process the following for that request:

  • Approximate country, device type, operating system and browser
  • The referring domain, to confirm the request came from your verified site
  • A one-way hash of the IP address and user agent, used only to enforce the frequency cap so the same visitor isn't shown a second pop inside the capped window
  • Signals used to identify automated traffic, including the network a request originates from
  • A random click identifier, used to connect an impression to a conversion

Raw IP addresses are not stored. The hashes cannot be reversed to recover an address and are not used to identify or track individuals across sites. Event-level records are kept for up to 90 days for billing and dispute resolution; after that only aggregated daily totals remain.

4. Cookies

This website sets no cookies and runs no analytics or third-party scripts. The ad tag does not rely on cookies for frequency capping.

5. Who else sees the data

Infrastructure providers process data on our behalf in order to run the service — hosting, edge delivery and storage. Where a campaign sends a visitor to an advertiser landing page, that destination operates under its own privacy notice, outside our control. We do not sell data to anyone.

6. Your choices

You can ask what we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted — other than records we're legally required to keep, such as payment history. Write to us and we'll handle it. No formal process required.
