This Privacy Policy explains how TPMGE (“TPMGE”, “we”, “us”, “our”), operating the website https://tpmge.com, collects, uses, stores, protects, and shares information about visitors, prospects, clients, and the advertising accounts we manage on behalf of our clients.

2.3 Advertising data we process on behalf of our clients
When a client engages us to manage their Google Ads (or other advertising) account, we access that client’s advertising data through official APIs, including the Google Ads API, under a Google Ads Manager Account (MCC) invitation accepted by the client. This data may include:
- Campaign, ad group, ad, keyword, and audience configurations.
- Performance metrics (impressions, clicks, cost, conversions, conversion value).
- Conversion tracking configuration and aggregated conversion data.
- Account structure metadata (customer IDs, currency, time zone, linked accounts).
In this context, the client is the data controller of their advertising account and TPMGE acts as a data processor under a written Data Processing Agreement (DPA). We process this data exclusively to deliver the contracted services (reporting, audits, campaign operations).

- We do not collect special categories of personal data (health, religion, political opinions, etc.).
- We do not knowingly collect data from children under 16.
