Introduction

Sublime Ads is a service provided by Vincent Ritter (“Vincent Ritter Consulting”). As I am an independent developer and don’t have a big budget to create a new company, Sublime Ads will be operated by Vincent Ritter Consulting until such time where Sublime Ads is profitable and warrants another company. Sublime Ads is a product owned by Vincent Ritter (“Vincent Ritter Consulting”).

Sublime Ads is a paid service. Your average paid service usually means that we use your data and sell it to shady middlemen to try and make profit. THIS IS NOT THE CASE WITH Sublime Ads. We will never share your data with third parties, except where debugging of errors is required. The only thing we collect is your user ID when errors are thrown within the web application.

We respect your privacy and respect you as a human being.

Snark

I am human, and don't like corporate bullshit wording. So instead, Sublime Ads will be a bit snarky. Love it or hate it. It's actually part of my personality. Some people might find this offensive. You've been warned. If you don't like it, don't use this service.

Spelling mistakes

My laptop keyboard is shit because "only at Apple" will they release a stupid fucking keyboard. So you'll find spelling mistakes... which sometimes I find and correct. Use your common sense, if there is such a thing (snark intended here), to read the right thing. If you're going to have a problem with that or can't use your brain matter, don't use this service. But please tell me when you find that spelling mistake and you think to yourself "what a fucking idiot this guy is".
