Question 1

What is Permission.io?

Accepted Answer

Permission was created to put an end to the interruptive, exploitative advertising model that drives today’s web and to give individuals back ownership of their data. The company has developed the infrastructure for a Web3 advertising platform based on permission and value exchange.

Powered by the Permission Token (“ASK”), the platform enables individuals to securely grant permission and monetize their personal data across the digital ecosystem.

Permission’s vision is for ASK to be the most widely used digital reward throughout the advertising ecosystem, enabling users to earn from their data and advertisers to obtain permission, motivate action, and increase ROI.

Question 3

Can advertisers see my personal data?

Accepted Answer

Only if you want them to. We enable users to permission their data directly to brands that they wish to engage with. However, when users are targeted for advertisements through the Permission platform, all data, regardless of source, is de-identified and aggregated for targeting purposes. Permission will always know which data is tied to each person, for purposes of rewarding ASK Tokens and ensuring interactions are compensated.
