Privacy & paid placements.

Basketball affiliate links

Clearly labelled affiliate links take you to an external merchant. HOOP. may receive a commission. Merchants apply their own privacy and purchase policies. HOOP. records aggregate outbound clicks and uses a first-party browser cookie lasting one day to limit duplicate counts. This does not change gameplay.

Spotlight

Your submitted message, public username, moderation history, payment references and publication dates are stored to provide the placement, process refunds and prevent duplicate charges. Only approved messages and usernames are shown publicly. Payment card details stay with Stripe. Payment and moderation records are restricted to you and the site owner.

Paid placements rotate for 24 hours beginning at publication. No impressions are guaranteed. Rejected or moderator-removed paid messages receive a full refund to the original payment method. Unpublished edits return to moderation. Avoid private information in your message.

Advertising

AdSense is inactive unless the owner configures an approved publisher, consent management and verified deployment. Where enabled, Google and its partners may process advertising identifiers and device information under the choices you make through the Google-certified consent manager. This site waits for an affirmative supported consent signal before requesting ads.
