Gambling Policy

Gambling is susceptible to many definitions throughout the world, and generally refers to risking something of value upon an uncertain outcome in the hopes of receiving something of value beyond the amount placed at risk. It usually, but not always, involves at least some element of chance.

Gambling may include activities commonly referred to as gaming, wagering, betting, and bookmaking. It also may include activities involving casinos, games of chance, lotteries, raffles, sweepstakes, and penny auctions.

Xandr does not apply a singular definition to gambling. Rather, as explained below, gambling may include any number of activities promoted in ads. Xandr reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to amend or expand the activities that it deems to be gambling.

For purposes of this policy, “gambling ad” means the following:

• Any type of advertisement that promotes, directly or indirectly, online (internet and mobile) and offline (land-based or “bricks and mortar” casinos, betting shops, card rooms or other gambling establishments) gambling, gaming, betting or wagering of any kind, whether for cash prizes or other things of value, including but not limited to casino games, poker, sports betting (whether individual or parlay wagering), pari-mutuel wagering or “betting pools” (including horse racing, dog racing, and jai alai), lotteries, raffles, sweepstakes, penny auctions, and fantasy sports.

• Any type of advertisement that otherwise relates in any way to the foregoing activities, including advertisements for promotional products, services or materials, including education, “learn to play,” “practice” and other free simulation sites affiliated with online or offline gambling or wagering sites or facilities.

Prohibited Countries

Notwithstanding any other provision in this policy, Xandr prohibits gambling ads of any kind targeted to serve in the following countries through the Xandr platform:

• China

• Egypt

• Hong Kong

• India

• Indonesia

• Russia

• Singapore

• Taiwan

• Thailand

• United Arab Emirates

Restrictions on Gambling Ads

Subject to the preceding prohibitions, Xandr generally permits gambling ads to be targeted to serve in jurisdictions where such ads are not prohibited so long as Xandr clients, on behalf of themselves and the advertisers whose ads they are trafficking, comply with the following requirements:

• The ad complies with all applicable laws, rules and regulations in any jurisdiction where the client’s ad targets to serve. 

• The buyer and the advertiser currently hold all required licenses, permits, registrations, waivers, consents or other governmental approvals (collectively, “licenses”) to operate in the jurisdictions in which the ad is served and in any other jurisdictions in which you and the advertiser operate.

• The buyer and the advertiser are in compliance and agree to remain in compliance with all applicable laws and the terms of all applicable licenses.

• The buyer and the advertiser agree not to serve gambling ads targeted to serve in any jurisdiction specifically prohibited by this policy, as such may be updated from time to time.

• The buyer is approved by Xandr to serve gambling ads.

• The buyer acknowledges that approval does not guarantee that ads can be served. Xandr reserves the right to conduct appropriate due diligence on the buyer and/or the advertiser and, in its sole and absolute discretion, may prohibit any ad from serving for any reason whatsoever.

To “target ads to serve in a country” or “jurisdiction” means to target advertising based on the geographic location of an Internet user (according to the IP address associated with the requesting browser, as determined by Xandr).

Government-Sponsored Lotteries

Advertising for government-sponsored lotteries is permitted, so long as the ads comply with the following requirements:

• The advertiser is a government entity or agency, such as a state, provincial or national lottery commission or authority, or a licensee or agent contractually authorized to operate or advertise lottery games on behalf of a government entity.

• The lottery ads must only target the jurisdiction that controls the lottery commission or authority, or in which the government-sponsored lottery is authorized.

• The lottery ads otherwise comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations.

Xandr may change this policy from time to time, including by revising the list of Prohibited Countries above, as well as the types of ads subject to this policy. For additional information please contact info@adpersonam.io
