Deployed how? Why are they hiding main information?

Good question. According to Venture Beat they have their SDK installed in top 100 apps in 2018.

So then through app publishers, either intentionally or through an SDK dependency that they are unaware of. I wonder how app revenue sources is evolving over time. Could it be that "data monetization" is one the rise with the proliferation of startups like this one?
