§ THE RULES
Plain rules, kept.
- 01
A person checks every ad.
Nothing runs until someone on the Knect desk has looked at it, usually within a day. If something needs a change, you get a note and can send it back.
- 02
No political or issue ads.
Candidates, parties, ballot measures and issue campaigns are not sold, and city districts can never be used to aim an ad.
- 03
Some things need a rating.
Alcohol, cannabis, gambling, dating and the like are 21+ or 18+ only. You tell us the category; we make sure only adults see it.
- 04
Kids and teens are protected.
Knect Family and Knect Faith only carry family-safe spots. Teen members never get ads aimed at them by interest, and never see adult categories.
- 05
Creators have a say.
A creator can block categories from running on their work. Your ad simply skips those places.
- 06
Honest pictures, honest words.
No bait, no fake buttons, no claims you cannot back up. An ad that misleads is taken down and the unspent money comes back.
- 07
Your data stays yours.
We never share who saw your ad. You get counts, never names, and audience numbers under ten are hidden.
- 08
Showings are what you pay for.
A showing counts when the ad is drawn on the page, including just below the edge of the screen. You pay per thousand at the rate you were quoted. We also report how many were really seen, so you can judge the quality. A bot is never billed.
