Compliance

How we approach compliance across the network

Compliance runs through traffic review, campaign monitoring, and data-handling practices — for both publishers and advertisers.

Traffic-source review

Traffic sources are reviewed before approval and periodically afterward, against each campaign's specific requirements.

Campaign-specific promotion rules

Each campaign defines its own permitted promotional methods, claims, and disclosures, which publishers must follow.

Fraud-prevention practices

We apply monitoring practices intended to identify suspicious activity and reduce fraudulent traffic across campaigns.

Lead-quality monitoring

Incoming leads and conversions are reviewed on an ongoing basis, not only at the point of campaign launch.

Data privacy

Personal data collected through campaigns is handled according to our Privacy Policy and applicable data-protection law.

Consent requirements

Where consent is required for data collection or marketing outreach, it must be obtained and documented as specified by the applicable campaign and law.

Email marketing requirements

Email campaigns must comply with applicable anti-spam law, including sender identification and opt-out handling.

SMS & telephone marketing requirements

SMS and telemarketing activity must comply with applicable consent and do-not-call requirements, including TCPA where relevant.

Brand & trademark restrictions

Use of advertiser or third-party brand names and trademarks is restricted to what each campaign explicitly permits.

Prohibited traffic & practices

Incentivized traffic, misrepresentation, and other prohibited practices are not permitted unless a campaign explicitly allows them.

Publisher monitoring

Publisher activity is monitored for adherence to campaign terms, with corrective action taken where issues are found.

Complaint handling & enforcement

Compliance complaints are reviewed by our team, and policy violations may result in warnings, campaign removal, or account suspension.
