Yes. This is an advertising network that performs cross-site tracking and serves intrusive ad formats. Block until marketing consent is granted.
Is Propeller Ads GDPR compliant?
Propeller Ads typically loads marketing trackers, which are not strictly necessary for your site to work. Under the GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive, non-essential cookies and trackers must stay blocked until a visitor gives clear opt-in consent. So Propeller Ads can be fully GDPR compliant, but only if your site holds its scripts until consent is granted and lets visitors decline just as easily. Compliance depends on how your site loads Propeller Ads, not on Propeller Ads itself.
