Our Services
These terms of use set out the legally binding terms and conditions for your use of the Gener8 Browser and all related services, including, gener8ads.com or any successor or replacement URL (the "Website") and any other websites, content, features or applications offered from time to time by Gener8 in connection therewith (together, the "Services").
We have developed the web browser (the "Gener8 Browser") which can be downloaded for free via the Website. The Gener8 Browser aims to give you more control over your data and your advertising experience by giving you the choice between "Privacy Mode" and "Rewards Mode".
If you opt to use the Gener8 Browser in "Privacy Mode", we prevent your browser from sending out sensitive data to thousands of third-party tracking and advertising companies. We remove (almost) all of the advertising you would normally see online for a cleaner, faster browsing experience. Our filter lists contain blocking rules for tens of thousands of websites and are updated daily.
If you opt to use the Gener8 Browser in "Rewards Mode", we create value from your data, through advertising, surveys and smart tracking. We share that back with you by rewarding you with Gener8 Points which you can redeem in return for products, vouchers/exclusive offers, gift cards or donate to charity using the Gener8 Marketplace (the "Marketplace") in accordance with the Marketplace Terms. We anonymise your personal data and browsing history with a randomly generated alphanumeric identifier.
You can only earn Gener8 Points and redeem them for items in the Marketplace if you opt to use the Gener8 Browser in "Rewards Mode".
Referrals: you may also earn Gener8 Points by referring friends to us by using the referral link in your Gener8 account/profile. The friend(s) you refer may also receive Gener8 Points for using your link too. Your friend(s) must activate their Gener8 account and be an active user for you (and your friend(s)) to receive the Gener8 Points. The number of Gener8 Points available for referrals may vary from time to time.
