Privacy Policy

Effective Date: December 5, 2025

This Privacy Policy explains how ZeroAd Network ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you visit our website (https://zeroad.network) and use our services, including our browser extension for ad-free browsing. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handle data in compliance with applicable laws.

1. Information we collect

• Website Visitors: We do not collect personal information from casual visitors. No cookies or tracking technologies are used until you sign up or log in.
• Registered Users: When you sign up or log in, we collect necessary information such as your email address, payment details (processed via Stripe), and usage data from the browser extension.
• Extension Usage: For fully subscribed users only, the extension collects functional telemetry metadata, including hostname, total duration of time spent on all pages of each partnering publisher site as a whole, and view counts per partner site ID. This anonymized data is used solely to fairly distribute subscription revenue to content creators. Telemetry is sent periodically to us only when partnering sites are visited; no data is sent otherwise. No personal identifiers are tied to this data beyond what's needed for your account. We do not sell or share personal data with third parties for marketing.

2. Cookies and tracking technologies

• Our site does not use cookies for visitors browsing without an account.
• As our site is delivered through a Cloudflare infrastructure, Cloudflare sets security-related cookies to protect the service from attacks and ensure reliable performance.
• Upon signing up or logging in, we use a session cookie to maintain your authenticated session. This cookie expires after 7 days.
• During subscription purchases, our payment processor (Stripe) may add functional cookies to facilitate the transaction. These are essential for processing payments and are not used for tracking or advertising. For details on Stripe's practices, see their Privacy Policy.

3. How we use your information

• To provide and improve our services, including ad-free browsing and revenue sharing.
• To process payments and manage subscriptions.
• To communicate with you about your account or updates.
• For internal analytics and security purposes.

4. Sharing your information

• We share data only as necessary: with Stripe for payments, and aggregated usage stats with partner sites for revenue distribution.
• We do not sell your data to third parties. Disclosures may occur if required by law or to protect our rights.

5. Data security

We implement reasonable security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Your rights

• Access, update, or delete your personal information by contacting us.
• Opt out of communications or cancel your subscription at any time.
• Residents of certain regions (e.g., EU/UK under GDPR) have additional rights, such as data portability or objection to processing.

7. Children's privacy

Our services are not intended for children. You must be 18 years old or the legal age in your country. We do not knowingly collect data from minors.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy periodically. Changes will be posted here with the updated effective date. Continued use of our services constitutes acceptance.

9. Contact us
