4. Affiliate Links and Tracking

6. Bot Protection and Security
We have implemented Google reCAPTCHA v3 on our Service to help prevent spam and abuse. This tool operates invisibly in the background to assess whether an interaction is originating from a human or a bot by analyzing various signals, such as hardware and software information. Data collected through reCAPTCHA is used for security purposes and providing the Service; it is not used for personalized advertising by Google.
Your use of reCAPTCHA v3 is subject to the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
