Advertising Policies
Parsafy AI is a free-speech-focused platform dedicated to authentic self-expression, meaningful connection, and creative exploration. We believe in providing an open environment where creators and communities can share their voices freely.
At the same time, we hold our advertisers to high standards of transparency, accuracy, and respect for our community. These Advertising Policies apply to all paid promotions and sponsored content on Parsafy, and must be read alongside our Terms of Service and Community Guidelines. Our policies are subject to periodic updates — advertisers are responsible for staying informed and compliant.
Every advertisement on Parsafy goes through a review process before going live. We reserve the right to reject, remove, or request modifications to any ad that violates these policies, including ads flagged by our user community. We may request fact-checking, proof of authorization, or licensing documentation for certain categories of claims.
Parsafy may publish information related to ads — including creative content, targeting details, and advertiser contact information — to provide transparency to our users. This information may also be shared with third parties where required by law or platform policy.
All advertising inquiries, pre-authorization requests, and policy questions should be directed to [email protected].
Political Advertising Is Not Permitted on Parsafy
Parsafy does not accept political advertisements of any kind. This prohibition applies regardless of the advertiser's political affiliation, the jurisdiction targeted, or whether the ad concerns a candidate, ballot measure, political party, political action committee (PAC), or any issue-based campaign intended to influence public opinion on political matters.
This ban covers, but is not limited to:
Ads for or against political candidates or officeholders · Ads for or against political parties · Ballot measure and referendum campaigns · Issue advocacy ads on politically contested topics · Ads funded by PACs, super PACs, or government-affiliated political entities · Ads promoting or opposing legislation or regulatory action
This policy is absolute and non-negotiable. No exceptions will be made regardless of political viewpoint, geography, or budget. For questions, contact [email protected].
🎯 Targeting & Compliance
Age Targeting
Parsafy is an 18+ platform. All users are adults by design, which means all ads on Parsafy are inherently adult-targeted. However, advertisers must still apply appropriate age targeting where the nature of the product or applicable law requires it — for example, alcohol, gambling, adult content, and financial products that carry specific age restrictions.
Ads must not be designed to appeal primarily to individuals under 18, even though such individuals are not permitted on the platform. Where Parsafy has reason to believe an ad is designed to circumvent age verification or reach minors through external channels linked from Parsafy, the ad will be rejected.
Legal Compliance
All advertisements must fully comply with all applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, industry standards, regulations, and cultural sensitivities in each geographic area where they are displayed. This includes:
- Prohibition on discriminatory targeting based on gender, age, race, ethnicity, religion, national origin, disability, sexual orientation, or other protected characteristics, except where audience targeting is expressly required by the nature of the product and permitted by law.
- Compliance with language-specific disclosure requirements in applicable jurisdictions.
- Compliance with the FTC's Endorsement Guides and any equivalent regulations in the jurisdiction targeted.
Sanctions Compliance
As a company headquartered in the United States, Parsafy cannot accept ads that are targeted to, funded by, or that promote entities in countries subject to U.S. trade sanctions or specific U.S. export control laws, including but not limited to entities on OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals list. This includes Russian state-owned entities and entities from any country under active U.S. Treasury sanctions.
Disclosures
All mandatory disclosures, disclaimers, and warnings within advertisements must be prominently displayed and easy to notice. Advertisers must be clearly and accurately identified within every ad. Undisclosed or unauthorized sponsored content is strictly prohibited.
🔒 Privacy & Data Collection
Advertisements displayed on Parsafy are prohibited from collecting sensitive information or special category data. This includes information related to:
- Alleged or actual commission of a crime.
- Health or medical information.
- Users' financial status or credit history.
- Racial or ethnic origin.
- Religious beliefs or preferences.
- Sex life or sexual preferences.
- Political opinions.
- Trade union membership.
- Biometric or genetic data.
Health-related surveys are permitted only when conducted by accredited research institutions or recognized public health organizations, and only with explicit user consent.
The advertiser's privacy policy must be easily accessible wherever personal information is collected. Personal information must be collected and processed securely. Ads must not deceive users into providing personal information under false pretenses, and must not claim or imply knowledge of a user's personal data, sensitive information, online activity, or precise location.
©️ Intellectual Property
Rights Clearance Required
Advertisements must not infringe upon the intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other legal rights of any person or entity. Advertisers must hold all necessary rights and permissions for all elements of their ads, including images, music, video clips, fonts, software, and any identifiable individuals featured. This includes securing explicit consent before featuring any person's name, likeness, voice, or other identifying features in an ad.
Prohibited Ad Content
- Ads for products or services primarily intended to infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others, including tools designed to bypass copyright or DRM protection mechanisms.
- Ads for products or services focused on selling counterfeit goods — see our Prohibited & Restricted Content policy.
- Ads employing false celebrity testimonials, fake endorsements, or fabricated user reviews.
- AI-generated ads that falsely depict real individuals endorsing a product or making statements they did not make.

References to Parsafy
Advertisements must not suggest any affiliation with, sponsorship by, or endorsement from Parsafy AI Inc. or its products.

Ads must not use altered or confusingly similar variations of any Parsafy-owned trademark.
✅ Ad Quality & Landing Pages
Creative Standards
All ads must adhere to high editorial and technical quality standards. Ad creatives that do not meet Parsafy's specifications will be rejected. For technical and creative specifications for each ad format, contact [email protected].
Landing Page Requirements
Our review process extends beyond the ad creative to the associated landing page and destination URL. We do not accept ads with landing pages that are:
- Low quality: Dead links, pages that do not load correctly, or pages not formatted for mobile devices.
- Disruptive: Pages delivering unexpected user experiences, sudden loud audio, aggressive flashing, or autoplaying media with sound.
- Irrelevant: Pages that do not align with the product or service advertised, or that unnecessarily route users through additional steps to expose them to more ads.
- Unsafe: Pages that attempt to automatically download files, engage in phishing, harvest user credentials, or install software without consent.
- Deceptive: Pages using cloaking, URL masking, or content that changes after submission to evade review.
Promotions
Promotions and contests conducted through Parsafy advertising must comply with our Promotions Rules in addition to these Advertising Policies.
