Terms of service

These terms cover the Poseidon website at askposeidon.app, its API and its MCP server (together, "Poseidon"), run by Poseidon ("we"). By buying credits or using Poseidon, you agree to them.

What Poseidon is

Poseidon is a research service about e-commerce advertising in Europe. It reads the public Meta Ad Library and returns, for each ad, links to it, how long it has run, the reach Meta publishes (by country, age and gender), the structure of its script with short quotes, and the shop behind it. It also returns figures computed from those signals across many ads. Every figure shows the date it was read.

Poseidon gives information, not advice. We don't promise that any ad, format or product will work for you. Decisions you make with it are yours.

Your key and your credits

• When you buy credits, you get a key. Anyone with the key can spend its credits, so keep it private. If you lose it, or think someone else has it, write to contact@askposeidon.app and we'll replace it and move your remaining credits.
• Credits are prepaid. They never expire. They are not money: they can't be exchanged for cash, except under the refund policy, and they can't be moved to another person.
• What each question costs in credits is on the prices page. An answer with no result, or a refused call, costs nothing. If we change what a question costs, the new cost applies only to questions asked after the change, and we announce it on the prices page first.
• Payment is handled by Stripe. We never see or store your card number.

Fair use

You may use what Poseidon returns for your own work and your clients' work. You may not:

• resell or republish Poseidon's answers as a dataset or a competing service;
• use Poseidon to find, profile or contact private individuals;
• try to get around the rate limits, the credit meter or the key system, or disrupt the service.

If a key breaks these rules, we can suspend it. We will tell you why, and refund the unused credits.

Where the data comes from

Ads, reach and texts are Meta's, published in its Ad Library. The ads themselves belong to the advertisers. Poseidon links to ads and quotes short passages; it does not host their videos or images. If you are an advertiser and want an ad removed from Poseidon, write to contact@askposeidon.app.

Availability and errors

We work to keep Poseidon running and its figures right, but we can't guarantee it will always be available or free of errors. Meta's own figures can be inconsistent (for example a country total higher than the EU total), and we show them as Meta publishes them. If a technical fault on our side costs you credits, write to us and we'll restore them.

Liability

To the extent the law allows, our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. We are not liable for indirect losses, such as lost profit or advertising spend. Nothing here limits rights you have as a consumer that the law says can't be limited.

Changes and ending

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version, and changes don't affect credits you already bought. You can stop using Poseidon at any time. If we ever close Poseidon, we will refund unused credits.

Law

These terms are governed by French law. If you are a consumer in the EU, you also keep the protection of the law of your country.
