Is this the typical "Just put this little javascript on your pages and we will display ads" thing?

What do you mean by that?

Do you ask publishers to put javascript on their site?

Yes, is there any other way?

Yes. Textlinks. Or image links where the images are hosted on the publishers website.

Sending 3rd-party content to my visitors is not non-intrusive. Especially if it is active content like javascript.

The site is pretty sparse on details. Does PurpleAds engage in user tracking or targeting?

We're working on improving it as we speak. For now we do not track users.

Our targeting is pretty basic: device (desktop, mobile), website categories and location.
