Advertising Policy
graphGURU.ai currently shows no advertising at all — no sponsor placements, no affiliate or referral links, and no ad-network tags. The site is free and kept running by voluntary donations. This policy sets out the rules that will govern advertising if it is ever introduced, so you can judge in advance how it would be kept separate from the analysis.
1. Independence from analysis is non-negotiable
No advertiser can ever influence market data, model weights, confidence figures, AI review content, rankings, or any public analysis payload. Advertising, if it ever exists, is structurally separated from the analysis engine and is sold only as fixed-calendar, flat-fee placement — never as payment for editorial or model treatment.
2. The only permitted format: first-party static sponsors
Any placement must be a reviewed, fixed-calendar, flat-fee sponsor placement. It is not CPM, CPA, revenue share, referral, or affiliate compensation. A visible Advertisement label is always required.
Placements may appear only on separate public editorial documents: Methodology, Limitations,
About, and any future /learn/* document that has been separately approved. They never
appear in the application itself.
3. Places where advertising is always prohibited
No ad code, sponsor slot, tracking request, or advertiser creative may appear in the app analysis views, Review, Scanner, Backtest, Trade scenarios, probabilities, login, wallet, account, Monitor builder or history, payment/receipt flow, contact OTP, unsubscribe, maintenance/error states, or customer email.
4. Creative, privacy, and independence rules
- Only same-origin text or approved static image assets may be shown. No advertiser JavaScript, pixel, iframe, arbitrary HTML, cookie, or external tracking asset is accepted.
- Outbound links use
rel="sponsored noopener noreferrer"and editorial documents use a no-referrer policy. - Selection is server-side by approved route and fixed campaign dates. It does not use wallet, email, account, Monitor rule, threshold, cookie, behavior, or analysis output.
- Only aggregate campaign/route/day counts may be kept for operations. Those counts are not used to calculate advertiser compensation.
- No advertiser can influence market data, model weights, confidence, Review content, ranking, or any public analysis payload.
5. Categories we will not accept
We exclude crypto exchanges/brokers, derivatives/CFD/forex, token sales, lending/yield products, wallet-drainers/airdrops, gambling, binary options, trading bots, trading signals, investment advice, get-rich-quick claims, unlicensed finance, and loan lead generation.
6. Report and takedown
Each live direct placement will include a “Report this ad” control. Reports are queued for review and may lead to immediate pausing while the campaign is assessed. Do not click advertisements as a way to support graphGURU.ai — a donation is the direct way to do that.
7. Ad networks
Contextual or network advertising is disabled and is not part of the permitted format above. It would require separate provider approval, privacy and country controls, content-security and network-inventory review, category controls, and a written policy update on this page before any request is ever made.
8. Changes to this policy
If these rules ever change, the updated policy will be posted on this page with a new revision date before any placement relying on the change is shown.
