Ads Online Platform Privacy Policy

Ads Online LLC (“Ads Online,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) operates the platform available at adsonline.app (the “Platform”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use and share it, and the choices you have. By using the Platform, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

This section serves as our formal Notice at Collection under US state privacy frameworks.

Depending on your use of the Platform, we collect information in the following ways:

• Information you or other users provide. Account and contact details (name, email, password, phone number), profile information, billing details, content and ad creatives, executed agreements, and platform messages.
• Sensitive Personal Information (SPI). Bank account routing numbers, tax documents, credit card configurations, cryptocurrency wallet addresses, and cryptographic transaction logs.
• Information from connected services. Channel statistics, audience demographics, and content metadata pulled automatically when you link another social media or broadcast channel, such as linking a YouTube channel via Google OAuth or a Rumble channel via a platform API.
• Information collected automatically. Device and browser data, IP addresses, usage metrics, approximate location data, and tracking metadata captured via cookies.
• Information from partners. Data from integrated financial networks, tracking or analytics networks, verification networks, and authorized agencies acting on your behalf.
• Third-Party Onboarding and Verification Data. Raw identity and verification materials (such as government-issued IDs or tax documents) are collected directly by our integrated Third-Party Payment Processors and are subject to their privacy policies. We do not ingest or store these raw documents on our local infrastructure, though we may receive an automated verification confirmation token that links to your account.

2. Google and Rumble User Data

When you connect a third-party account (such as a YouTube or Rumble channel), the Platform requests only the specific read-only scopes (e.g., youtube.readonly) or API streams required to verify your channel availability, target metrics, and audience statistics.

Our use of information received from Google APIs strictly adheres to the Google API Platforms User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements. We do not use Google or Rumble data to serve independent ads, do not transfer it to third parties except to maintain or improve the platform, and restrict human access to it unless explicitly authorized by you for a security investigation or to comply with applicable law. You can revoke access to these services at any time via your Google or Rumble account security portals.

3. Cookies, Analytics, and Opt-Outs

We utilize cookies and persistent tracking technologies to maintain your secure active sessions, remember your preferences, defend against platform abuse, and compile performance metrics. These include strictly necessary security cookies and secondary analytics cookies managed by independent service providers.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you have the right to accept or decline non-essential tracking cookies via our interactive banner mechanism. The platform natively recognizes and honors automated Global Privacy Control (GPC) opt-out signals broadcast by browser software.

4. How We Use Information

We utilize collected data to:

• Provide, maintain, secure, and monitor the core technology infrastructure of the Platform;
• Manage your user profile, facilitate verified login sessions, and track campaign milestones;
• Facilitate communications, coordination, and Bookings between Platform Advertisers and Platform Influencers, including generating and processing agreements, payments, and payouts;
• Route payments, execute automated billing commands, and distribute vendor payouts based on your active operational track (Basic vs. Premium);
• Index and display creator statistics, reach, and demographics to authorized marketplace buyers;
• Screen campaign briefs for policy infractions via automated detection tools and manual human reviews;
• Detect, investigate, and prevent credit card chargebacks, off-platform circumvention, and fraudulent activity;
• Communicate with you about your account, transactions, and updates;
• Comply with state and federal tax reporting requirements and enforce our baseline Platform Terms.

5. Automated Screening and Commercial Profiling

• Ad Content Compliance: Ad copy or media assets submitted to the platform are scanned by automated filtering software alongside human reviews to look for illegal disclosures or banned products. This tool does not make automated decisions carrying a legal or significant effect on your user status without human intervention.
• Commercial Marketplace Profiling: The Platform uses algorithmic logic to sort, rank, categorize, and filter creator channel statistics for platform advertisers seeking specific campaign criteria. You have the explicit right to opt out of automated commercial profiling used for targeted marketplace matching by adjusting your account preference settings or submitting an intake request (see Section 10).

6. Track Roles and How We Share Information

We share personal data exclusively under the following frameworks:

• Track-Specific Data Roles:
  • Premium Track: For managed accounts where Ads Online is the Merchant of Record, Ads Online acts as a primary Data Controller for your transaction and profile data.
  • Basic Track: For automated self-service bookings, Ads Online acts strictly as a passive technology pipeline. The transacting Platform Advertiser and Platform Influencer operate as direct independent Data Controllers for any campaign records or Received Personal Information handled under their P2P Agreement.
• Platform Counterparties: Platform Advertisers can view creator metadata and channel metrics, and Platform Influencers can view advertiser details once an automated Booking is structurally confirmed. Managed agencies can view data belonging to the accounts they legally represent.
• Infrastructure Platform Providers: Data is shared with contractually bound contractors who provide cloud server hosting, third-party card and crypto processing, automated media screening, digital signature execution, and support ticketing.
• Legal: We may share data if required by law, subpoena, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Ads Online, our users, or the public.
• Corporate Transfers: Data may be disclosed in connection with a corporate merger, asset sale, or bankruptcy proceeding, in which case we will notify you of any change in ownership or use of your information.

Within the preceding twelve (12) months, Ads Online has disclosed identifiers, commercial transaction metrics, and internet/electronic network activity (captured via analytics and tracking pixels) to contractually bound infrastructure providers and third-party advertising networks. This disclosure is classified as “sharing” or “processing for targeted advertising” under applicable US state frameworks. Ads Online has not sold consumer personal data for monetary compensation within the preceding twelve (12) months.

7. Data Retention and SPI Protections

We determine the retention period for each category of personal data based on the operational needs of your account and our underlying legal duties. Standard account identifiers, contact data, and platform messages are retained for as long as your account remains actively open, or as necessary to fulfill the commercial transactions secured through the Service and resolve outstanding billing or chargeback disputes. You may request deletion of your account at any time pursuant to Section 10.

SPI Retention Framework: Sensitive Personal Information identified above is sequestered within high-security storage tiers. These records are retained as long as necessary to satisfy IRS guidelines and federal anti-money laundering frameworks.

8. International Data Transfers

Our primary computing servers are situated in the United States. If you access the Platform from outside the United States, your personal data will be transferred to and processed inside the United States. By using the Service, you acknowledge that your information may be subject to access by US regulatory, judicial, or law enforcement authorities under local United States laws, which may differ from your local or domestic privacy frameworks.

9. Security Safeguards

We utilize industry-standard administrative, technical, and physical safeguards (such as encryption, access controls, and secure authentication protocols) designed to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure.

10. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your state or country of residence, you may possess the following rights:

• The right to access, download, correct, or delete your personal data;
• The right to restrict, stop, or object to the processing of your data;
• The right to opt out of the commercial sale, sharing, or tracking of data for behavioral or targeted ad networks;
• The right to opt out of automated commercial marketplace profiling and ranking logic;
• The right to non-discrimination: we will not discriminate, retaliate, or deny you equal service or tier access if you choose to exercise any of your statutory privacy rights.

Procedural Intake and Verification Mechanics

• Verification Process: To exercise a right to access, correct, download, or delete your personal data, you must submit an intake request to legal@adsonline.agency. To prevent data fraud, we will verify your identity before releasing records by requiring you to log into your authenticated account dashboard or match three distinct account identifiers. Authorized agents may file requests if they present formal written power of attorney or validation required by local statutes.
• Statutory Response Window: We will acknowledge your request within ten (10) business days and provide a substantive response within forty-five (45) calendar days of receipt. If an extension is necessary due to complex data structures, we will notify you within the initial window and may extend our timeline by an additional 45 days as permitted by law. Requests to opt out of data selling, sharing, or targeted advertising submitted via email will be processed and enacted within fifteen (15) business days of receipt by us, as required by law.
• Right to Appeal: If we decline to take action on a deletion or opt-out request, we will explain our legal rationale. You have an explicit right to appeal our decision within thirty (30) days of receiving our denial by emailing our team with the subject line “Privacy Appeal.” If your appeal is denied, you may contact your state Attorney General or regional data protection authority.

Automated Choice Mechanisms

You do not need to submit an email verification request to stop targeted advertising, data sharing, or commercial marketplace profiling. You can instantly execute these choices at any time through the following automated methods:

• Account-Level Profiling: To stop your platform data and metrics from being indexed for commercial marketplace matching, log into your account, navigate to Settings > Privacy, and disable the “Opt-Out of Selling & Sharing” toggle.
• Browser-Level Tracking: Click the “Your Privacy Choices” link located in our platform footer to manage local analytics and advertising cookies.

If your browser software transmits a valid GPC signal, the Platform will automatically process the opt-out of ad networks for that session and display a visible “Opt-Out Request Honored” confirmation status inside your account dashboard.

11. Children’s Privacy

The Platform is built exclusively for commercial, professional use by users who are at least 18 years old. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 18, and minors are contractually banned from registering an account on the platform. If you suspect an individual under 18 has established an account, notify us at legal@adsonline.agency so we can purge the files.

12. Third-Party Links and Integrations

The Platform contains active programmatic integrations with independent external platforms (such as Google API nodes, Rumble broadcasting endpoints, and Third-Party Payment Processors). We exercise no control over the individual privacy policies or processing terms used by these independent networks, and we encourage you to inspect their documents directly.

13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to alter this document prospectively. If we make material shifts to how we manage your data, we will distribute a notice via your platform dashboard or email before the changes take effect. Continued use of the platform after the updated effective date represents your formal acceptance of the modified terms.
