Privacy policy

Telegram Ads Spy indexes public ad creatives from Telegram channels and the Telegram Ads platform. We do not track individual Telegram users or ad viewers. For website visitors we keep a standard web log and count visits with Google Analytics 4 (see Analytics below). The only personal data we store is for people who explicitly sign in to our Telegram bot to manage alerts.

From public sources (no personal data)

• Ad creative text, metadata, CTA URL, preview image URL
• Public channel metadata (username, title, subscriber count, avatar URL)
• Advertiser information extracted from CTA URLs (domain or Telegram handle)

From bot users (only if you sign in)

• Telegram user ID, username, first/last name, language code
• Your alert subscriptions (keyword / channel / advertiser / niche)
• Last interaction timestamp

From website visitors

• Standard HTTP access logs (IP, user-agent, path, status) — 30-day retention
• Cookies: NEXT_LOCALE for remembering language preference; Google Analytics 4 cookies _ga and _ga_* (see Analytics)

To count visits and see which pages are useful, we use Google Analytics 4. It sets this site's own cookies _ga and _ga_* (kept for up to 2 years) and sends Google visit data without your name or contact details: the page, the referrer, the device type and an approximate country. Google signals and ad personalisation are turned off. You can opt out with a content blocker or the Google Analytics Opt-out browser add-on.

• We don't use ad trackers or session recording (no Facebook Pixel, no heatmaps); Google Analytics 4 only as described in Analytics, with Google signals and ad personalisation turned off
• We don't sell or share bot-user data with third parties
• We don't store media files — only hashes and public CDN URLs
• We don't track individual Telegram users seeing ads

Paid plans are paid in TON or USDT from your own wallet, connected with TON Connect. We never see your wallet's keys or recovery phrase. For each payment we keep your account ID, the plan and term, the price in USD and in coins, the exchange rate and its source, your wallet address and the transaction hash. Wallet addresses and transactions are public on the TON blockchain anyway.

• Serve the public archive pages and the API
• Deliver alert notifications to bot subscribers
• Check payments and grant the paid plan you bought
• Prevent abuse and rate-limit API requests
• Aggregate statistics (counts, trends) — never about individual users

• Delete your bot account: write /delete to @tgadsspybot and confirm with the button — your account, alerts and API keys are erased at once. Payment records are kept (see Payments); public scam reports and votes stay, no longer linked to you
• Remove an ad creative: file a DMCA / 152-ФЗ takedown via /dmca — valid requests mark the creative hidden (410 Gone)
• Export your data: ask via /feedback in @tgadsspybot for a machine-readable copy of everything we hold about you (usually minimal: tgUserId + alerts)
• Correct inaccurate data: contact us, we respond within 5 business days

• Web logs: 30 days
• Bot user records: until you delete your account
• Payment records: kept for accounting and disputes, also after account deletion
• Public ad creatives: indefinitely (archive is the point)
• Alert-match history (fired notifications): 90 days

We use Cloudflare (edge + DNS), Google (Google Analytics 4, visit statistics), a third-party Telegram data provider (data source), optionally tgme (future TON pipeline), PostgreSQL and Redis on our own infrastructure. Telegram Bot API is used only to deliver alerts you explicitly subscribed to.

Privacy questions, data requests, complaints: @tgadsspybot (or the contact email listed in the Serbian company register for G MEDIA PARTNERS EUROPE d.o.o.).
