How advertising works in DailyGeo.

DailyGeo keeps the current daily puzzles free to play. Advertising is one of the MVP revenue sources used to support hosting, curation, and ongoing product development.

Subscribers should not see standard ad placements while an active entitlement is in good standing.

The free tier may include banner ads, interstitial placements around puzzle sessions, and optional rewarded-video prompts tied to hint unlocks. Rewarded hints are opt-in and are not required to access the core daily puzzle loop.

Ad frequency is subject to internal caps intended to avoid overlap with the viewer, guess input, or solve flow.

Where required, DailyGeo requests consent before serving personalized advertising. If you decline personalized ads, the service should fall back to contextual or restricted ad treatment when the ad network supports it.

Consent decisions are stored so they can be respected across sessions and audited for compliance purposes.

DailyGeo measures ad requests, impressions, clicks, completions, failures, and related session metrics to understand monetization performance and enforce ad-frequency rules. The product also uses Google Analytics 4 for aggregate page-view and navigation reporting.

Google services may process data needed for consent management and ad delivery. Stripe processes subscription billing separately and is not used as an ad provider.

If DailyGeo runs sponsored daily puzzles, those puzzles must be clearly labeled as sponsored. Sponsorship must not hide the disclosure, and sponsored inventory is expected to go through manual review for brand-safety and product-fit checks.

Share cards and solve screens should avoid misleading users about whether a puzzle was sponsored.
