The Brand Covenant
Brands on Orbit are channels, not ads.
Orbit has no advertising. That does not change. Here is exactly how brands work here, in plain language:
- You choose them. They never choose you.A brand only reaches you if you subscribe to its channel. There is no other way.
- Your feed is yours.Brand content never appears in your feed, your orbits, or your pulses unless you subscribed to that brand. No sponsored posts, no suggested content, no "you might like."
- Discovery is a shelf, not a megaphone.Brands appear in one place: the Discover page, in their own clearly labeled section. Browsing it is voluntary. Skipping it costs you nothing.
- Unsubscribe means gone.One tap. No wind-down period, no "are you sure," no residue.
- Brands see numbers, never people.A brand knows how many people subscribe. It cannot see who you are, what orbits you belong to, who your people are, or anything about your activity. We do not sell, share, or provide member data to brands. Ever.
- Brands pay us. You are still not the product.Brands pay a flat fee to operate a channel, the same way they would pay for a website. They are not buying access to you. They are buying a place on the shelf.
If we ever break any line above, hold us to it: support@social-orbit.app
