Looks like they

collect "depersonalized" data
they use hidden pixels for tracking
allow advertisers to gather info such as your IP address

That's a major red flag for a VPN

So they share "depersonalized" data with advertisers.

They user hidden pixels to track you on their website.

And they allow advertisers to collect your IP address to send you personalized ads.
