The Services, including all software, algorithms, designs, text, graphics, logos, and other content, are owned by AdBid or our licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. You may not use our intellectual property without our written permission.

6.2 Your Content

You retain ownership of any content you upload to the Services ("Your Content"). By uploading Your Content, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, and display Your Content solely for the purpose of providing the Services.

6.3 Feedback

Any feedback, suggestions, or ideas you provide about the Services become our property and may be used without compensation to you.

7. Third-Party Services

7.1 Integrations

The Services integrate with third-party advertising platforms (Meta, Google, TikTok, etc.). Your use of these integrations is subject to the terms and policies of those third parties.

7.2 Third-Party Terms

You are responsible for complying with all third-party terms and policies when using our Services. We are not responsible for any third-party services or their actions.

7.3 Data Sharing

By connecting third-party accounts, you authorize us to access and use data from those accounts as necessary to provide the Services.

7.4 Google Ads

When you connect Google Ads, you authorize AdBid, through Google OAuth using the Google Ads API scope (https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwords), to access and — where you use such features — to create and manage advertising entities in the Google Ads accounts you connect, on your behalf and at your direction. You represent that you are authorized to grant this access for those accounts.

• You remain solely responsible for your Google Ads accounts, campaigns, budgets, and ad spend, and for compliance with the Google Ads policies and the Google Ads API Terms of Service
• AdBid's access and any campaign actions are limited to what is necessary to provide the features you use
• You may revoke AdBid's access at any time by disconnecting Google Ads in AdBid or via your Google Account permissions; revocation stops further access and deletes the imported Google Ads data for that connection
• AdBid's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements, as described in our Privacy Policy

7.5 Authorization and Sign-In

You may authenticate to AdBid using third-party sign-in (including Sign in with Google), which provides basic identity information (such as your name and email) solely to create and access your account; it does not, by itself, grant access to your advertising accounts. Connecting an advertising account (such as Google Ads, Meta, or TikTok) is a separate authorization that you grant explicitly and may revoke at any time. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activity under your account.
