After Conversion Experience (ACE) is the user experience that begins once a transaction for goods (either physical or virtual), services, or interactions is initiated on our platform.
At Bloc, we are committed to safeguarding personal data, e-commerce transactions, and maintaining the integrity of our platform.

We reserve the right to take a variety of actions, such as the rejection of ads or suspension of ad accounts, depending on the severity of the violation and circumstances. For more information, see our Bloc Ad After Conversion Experience Management Guideline
