Information Collection and Use

We collect several different types of information for various purposes to provide and improve our Service to you.

Types of Data Collected

Personal Data

While using our Service, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you ("Personal Data"). Personally identifiable information may include, but is not limited to:

  • Email address
  • First name and last name
  • Phone number
  • Address, State, Province, ZIP/Postal code, City
  • Cookies and Usage Data

We may use your Personal Data to contact you with email newsletters, email marketing or promotional emailed materials and other information that may be of interest to you. You may opt out of receiving any, or all, of these communications from us by following the unsubscribe link or instructions provided in any email we send or by contacting us.


Usage Data

We may also collect information how the Service is accessed and used ("Usage Data"). This Usage Data may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol address (e.g. IP address), browser type, browser version, the pages of our Service that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, unique device identifiers and other diagnostic data.


Tracking & Cookies Data

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track the activity on our Service and hold certain information.

Cookies are files with small amount of data which may include an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies are sent to your browser from a website and stored on your device. Tracking technologies also used are beacons, tags, and scripts to collect and track information and to improve and analyze our Service.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Service.

Examples of Cookies we use:

  • Session Cookies. We use Session Cookies to operate our Service.
  • Preference Cookies. We use Preference Cookies to remember your preferences and various settings.
  • Security Cookies. We use Security Cookies for security purposes.
  • Tracking Cookies. We use Tracking Cookies for advertising purposes as well as our affiliate program.

The AdFoc.us App

This section is about the AdFoc.us app for Android and iPhone (the "App"). The App is another way to use your AdFoc.us account, and the rest of this Privacy Policy applies to it too.

What the App sends us. When you sign in, and while you stay signed in, the App sends us:

  • The make and model of your phone, the version of its operating system and the version of the App
  • A random number made when the App is installed, which tells one install from another. It is not your phone's advertising ID or serial number, and it is new each time the App is installed
  • Your IP address and your time zone
  • How you signed in (password, Google, Discord or Apple)

We use these to keep your account safe, to show you the phones that are signed in to your account so you can sign any of them out, and to send alerts at a sensible hour.

Alerts. If you turn alerts on, your phone gets an alert address from Google (Firebase Cloud Messaging) or Apple (Apple Push Notification service) and the App sends it to us. We use it only to send the alerts you chose, such as a payment sent or a new sign-in. Google or Apple carry each alert to your phone. We remove the alert address when you turn alerts off, log out, or your sign-in ends.

What stays on your phone. Your sign-in is kept in your phone's secure storage. Recent pages, such as today's earnings, are kept on your phone for up to 30 days so the App can open with something when there is no connection. Your tax form and your account details are never kept. Logging out removes all of it, and none of it is copied into a cloud backup. If you lock the App with your fingerprint, your face or your screen lock, your phone does the check. We never receive your fingerprint or your face.

What the App does not do. The App has no advertising and no analytics software in it. It does not ask for your contacts, your location, your camera, your microphone or your photo library. A file or a picture reaches us only when you pick it yourself, for a support ticket or a logo. A link you share to the App is sent to us only when you choose to shorten it.

Others who handle data for the App.

  • Google and Apple, to carry alerts to your phone
  • Cloudflare, to check that a sign-in or a sign-up comes from a person
  • Google, Discord or Apple, when you choose to sign in with one of them. They tell us your name, your email address and the number of your account with them
  • Stripe, when an advertiser adds money by card. The card is typed on Stripe's own page. It never reaches the App or us

Closing your account. You can close your account in the App (Account, then Close account) or on the website.


Use of Data

AdFoc.us LLC uses the collected data for various purposes:

  • To provide and maintain our Service
  • To notify you about changes to our Service
  • To allow you to participate in interactive features of our Service when you choose to do so

  • To gather analysis or valuable information so that we can improve our Service
  • To monitor the usage of our Service
  • To detect, prevent and address technical issues
  • To provide you with news, special offers and general information about other goods, services and events which we offer that are similar to those that you have already purchased or enquired about unless you have opted not to receive such information

Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data Under General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

If you are from the European Economic Area (EEA), AdFoc.us LLC legal basis for collecting and using the personal information described in this Privacy Policy depends on the Personal Data we collect and the specific context in which we collect it.

  • We need to perform a contract with you
  • You have given us permission to do so
  • The processing is in our legitimate interests and it's not overridden by your rights
  • For payment processing purposes
  • To comply with the law

Retention of Data

Transfer of Data

Your information, including Personal Data, may be transferred to, and maintained on, computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ than those from your jurisdiction.

If you are located outside United States and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer the data, including Personal Data, to United States and process it there.

Your consent to this Privacy Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to that transfer.

AdFoc.us LLC will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and no transfer of your Personal Data will take place to an organization or a country unless there are adequate controls in place including the security of your data and other personal information.


Disclosure of Data

Business Transaction

If AdFoc.us LLC is involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, your Personal Data may be transferred. We will provide notice before your Personal Data is transferred and becomes subject to a different Privacy Policy.


Disclosure for Law Enforcement

Under certain circumstances, AdFoc.us LLC may be required to disclose your Personal Data if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g. a court or a government agency).


Legal Requirements

AdFoc.us LLC may disclose your Personal Data in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to:

  • To comply with a legal obligation
  • To protect and defend the rights or property of AdFoc.us LLC
  • To prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Service
  • To protect the personal safety of users of the Service or the public
  • To protect against legal liability

Security of Data

The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.


"Do Not Track" Signals

We do not support Do Not Track ("DNT"). Do Not Track is a preference you can set in your web browser to inform websites that you do not want to be tracked.

You can enable or disable Do Not Track by visiting the Preferences or Settings page of your web browser.


Your Data Protection Rights Under General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

If you wish to be informed what Personal Data we hold about you and if you want it to be removed from our systems, please contact us.

In certain circumstances, you have the following data protection rights:

  • The right to access, update or to delete the information we have on you. Whenever made possible, you can access, update or request deletion of your Personal Data directly within your account settings section. If you are unable to perform these actions yourself, please contact us to assist you.

Please note that we may ask you to verify your identity before responding to such requests.

You have the right to complain to a Data Protection Authority about our collection and use of your Personal Data. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority in the European Economic Area (EEA).


Service Providers

We may employ third party companies and individuals to facilitate our Service ("Service Providers"), to provide the Service on our behalf, to perform Service-related services or to assist us in analyzing how our Service is used.

These third parties have access to your Personal Data only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.


Analytics

We may use third-party Service Providers to monitor and analyze the use of our Service.

We do not use Google Analytics on our own pages. A creator can add their own Google Analytics ID to their account. It then counts visits to that creator's ad page in their own Google Analytics, under Google's Privacy Policy.


Signing In

You can choose to sign up and log in with Google or Discord. If you do, they send us your name, email address and account number on that service, and nothing else.

  • Google

    Their Privacy Policy can be viewed at https://policies.google.com/privacy

  • Discord

    Their Privacy Policy can be viewed at https://discord.com/privacy


Human Check

Cloudflare's human check (Turnstile) makes sure a person, not a program, is signing up, logging in, resetting a password or opening a support ticket. To do that, Cloudflare receives your IP address and details of your browser.

  • Cloudflare

    Their Privacy Policy can be viewed at https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/


Patreon

A creator can connect their Patreon to their download page. We keep their Patreon campaign's number and name, nothing else. A visitor who presses "I'm a patron" logs in on Patreon, and Patreon tells us whether they support that creator. We keep that answer in a cookie on their browser for 3 days, and we keep nothing else from Patreon.

  • Patreon

    Their Privacy Policy can be viewed at https://www.patreon.com/policy/privacy


Email

We send account, payment, support and news emails through Mandrill, part of Mailchimp. Mandrill receives your email address and the message. News and offers emails count opens and link clicks. You can turn them off in your account settings or with the unsubscribe link in any of them.

  • Mandrill

    Their Privacy Policy can be viewed at https://www.intuit.com/privacy/statement/


Review Invitations

After we pay a publisher, we may ask Trustpilot to invite them to review us. Trustpilot receives their name and email address for that.

  • Trustpilot

    Their Privacy Policy can be viewed at https://legal.trustpilot.com/for-reviewers/end-user-privacy-terms


Our Post on X

The footer of our pages shows a post from our X account, loaded from X only when you scroll down to it. X then receives your IP address and details of your browser, and we ask X not to use your visit for personalized ads.

  • X

    Their Privacy Policy can be viewed at https://x.com/en/privacy


Counting Sales for Advertisers

When a visitor clicks an ad, we add a click code to the address of the advertiser's page. That page may keep the code in the visitor's browser for up to 30 days, so the advertiser can tell us about a sale and its value. The code holds the campaign, the time of the click and a random number. It does not hold the visitor's name or email address.


Payments

We may provide paid products and/or services within the Service. In that case, we use third-party services for payment processing (e.g. payment processors).

We will not store or collect your payment card details. That information is provided directly to our third-party payment processors whose use of your personal information is governed by their Privacy Policy. These payment processors adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of payment information.

The payment processors we work with are:

  • Bitcoin

    Their Privacy Policy can be viewed at https://bitcoin.org/en/privacy

  • Stripe

    Advertisers pay by card through Stripe. Their Privacy Policy can be viewed at https://stripe.com/privacy

  • PayPal

    Their Privacy Policy can be viewed at https://www.paypal.com/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full


Links to Other Sites

Our Service may contain links to other sites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third party link, you will be directed to that third party's site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit.

We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third party sites or services.


Children's Privacy

Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 18 ("Children").

We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 18. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your Children has provided us with Personal Data, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.


Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.

We will let you know via email and/or a prominent notice on our Service, prior to the change becoming effective and update the "effective date" at the top of this Privacy Policy.
