Overview

Tomksoft operates PopAds, a pop-up and popunder advertising network. Its scripts trigger pop-up and popunder windows on publisher sites and track impression and click events within the PopAds network.

What This Script Does

  • Triggers pop-up or popunder browser windows containing advertisements when users interact with the page
  • Sets cookies for frequency capping to limit how often pop-ups appear to the same visitor
  • Tracks impression and click events for advertiser campaign reporting
  • Makes network requests to PopAds servers to fetch ad creative for pop-up windows
  • May use aggressive triggering mechanisms tied to user clicks or page interactions

Consent & Compliance

  • Category: Marketing
  • GDPR: Requires consent. Pop-up advertising scripts track users and set cookies for ad targeting and frequency management.
  • CCPA: Qualifies as a sale/share of personal information. User interaction data is used for advertising purposes.
  • ePrivacy: Requires consent for cookies used for ad targeting and for the intrusive nature of pop-up advertising delivery.

Should You Block This Without Consent?

Yes. PopAds scripts deliver intrusive pop-up and popunder advertisements that track user interactions. They provide no site functionality and should be blocked until the user consents to marketing cookies.

Is Tomksoft GDPR compliant?

Tomksoft 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 Tomksoft 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 Tomksoft, not on Tomksoft itself.
