1. Acceptance of Terms

MyClickShield is a click fraud protection service operated by VELJASMELE LTD, a company registered in England and Wales with its registered office at 128 City Road, London EC1V 2NX, United Kingdom. In these Terms of Service, "we", "our", "us" and "MyClickShield" refer to VELJASMELE LTD. By accessing or using our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use our service.

In plain English

By using MyClickShield, you accept these terms. If you don't, don't use it. We're the UK-registered company you're contracting with.

2. Description of Service

MyClickShield provides click fraud protection services for digital advertising campaigns. Our service:

  • Detects and filters invalid traffic on your advertisements using advanced detection algorithms
  • Integrates with Google Ads, Meta Ads, and Microsoft Ads via their official APIs
  • Automatically adds flagged IP addresses to your campaign exclusion lists (user-configurable)
  • Generates reports and analytics on detected invalid traffic for your review
  • Allows you to review, modify, or disable every automated action from your dashboard

We use the Google Ads API, Meta Marketing API, and Microsoft Advertising API solely to access campaign and traffic data for the purpose of detecting invalid clicks and providing analytics to you, the authenticated advertiser. We do not sell or share this data with third parties. All automated actions taken on your advertising accounts (including IP exclusions and conversion adjustments) are fully configurable and reversible from within the MyClickShield dashboard, and you may revoke API access at any time.

3. Account Registration

To use our service, you must:

  • Create an account with accurate and complete information
  • Be at least 18 years old or the age of majority in your jurisdiction
  • Maintain the confidentiality of your account credentials
  • Notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to your account
  • Accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account

4. Advertising Platform Connections

4.1 Authorization

By connecting your advertising accounts (Google Ads, Meta Ads, Microsoft Ads), you:

  • Authorize MyClickShield to access your advertising accounts via OAuth
  • Grant permission to add IP addresses to your exclusion lists
  • Grant permission to report invalid clicks on your behalf
  • Confirm you have authority to connect these accounts

4.2 Platform Compliance

You acknowledge that:

  • You must comply with Google Ads Terms of Service when using Google Ads integration

  • MyClickShield is not responsible for any violations of third-party platform terms

4.3 Disconnection

You may disconnect your advertising accounts at any time through your dashboard. Upon disconnection, we will stop accessing your ad accounts but may retain historical data as described in our Privacy Policy.

In plain English

You decide which ad accounts MCS can touch and you can revoke access any time. You're still responsible for following each ad platform's own ToS — we don't shield you from that.

5. Subscription and Billing

  • All plans include a 7-day free trial
  • When you start your free trial, we place a $1.00 authorization charge and issue an immediate refund for the same amount to verify that your card is valid and has available funds. The net amount retained by MyClickShield is zero. Depending on your bank, both the charge and the matching refund may appear separately on your statement, and the refund may take up to 10 business days to settle.
  • Subscriptions are billed monthly or annually in advance after the trial period
  • Payment is processed securely via Stripe
  • Prices are subject to change with 30 days notice
  • You may cancel your subscription at any time; access continues until the end of the billing period
  • Refunds are available within 30 days of initial paid subscription
  • Failed payments may result in service suspension
💸

Refund policy

30 days from your first paid month. No-questions-asked. Refunds go back to the original payment method within 5–10 business days.

FAQ on common questions

The questions our support team gets most often about these terms.

You keep full access until the end of your current billing period — we don't cut you off the moment you click cancel. We don't pro-rate refunds for the unused portion of a paid month, but the time you've paid for is yours.
Yes, within 30 days of your first paid charge, no questions asked. Email [email protected] and we'll process it back to your original payment method within 5–10 business days. After the 30-day window, refunds become discretionary and are reviewed case-by-case.
When the 7-day trial starts, we issue a $1.00 authorization to verify your card is valid and has available funds, then immediately refund the same $1.00. Some banks display these as separate line items even though the net is zero. The refund clears within 10 business days.
Reverse-engineering our detection algorithms, sharing your account with unauthorized parties, reselling MCS without a partner agreement, attacking our infrastructure, or using MCS to perform click fraud (rather than block it). Anything in section 7 of the terms. We enforce these — material violations result in account termination without refund.
