Summary

Bright Data outlines its expectations for SDK partners, emphasizing the importance of delivering high-quality applications that comply with security standards, including user opt-out options, zero-malicious advertising policies, and verified digital signatures. When partners fail to meet these standards, as demonstrated by a file-sharing application that refused to sign its software and a media editing app that used risky ad networks, Bright Data terminates the partnership to maintain cybersecurity integrity. Despite the potential impact on revenue, this commitment ensures the safety and compliance of Bright Data's network, supported by third-party certifications such as AppEsteem's endorsement of its EarnApp for meeting rigorous security and compliance standards. Major antivirus companies recognize the Bright Data SDK as non-threatening when installed appropriately, and the company continues to prioritize real-time monitoring and addressing false positive detections. Bright Data's Director of Security Partnerships, Ofir Meir, highlights the company's dedication to forming secure, mutually beneficial partnerships that enable passive revenue generation while maintaining a safe environment for users.
