There are communities on the internet that are specifically for these issues. Light advertisement with the consent of various moderators would not be bad idea. /r/NoFap comes to mind specifically, but also various religious communities where the desire for NoFap extends more from religious obligations would still find this interesting, I imagine.

that's true. a few of our competitors are quite strong in religious channels to promote their products. this is definitely an interesting channel to explore. as to /r/nofap - for some reason this channel doesn't show in the sub reddits where ads can be shown. it could be due to adult words used in the forum (just a guess, not sure what the reason is).

I was thinking more organic sort of marketing in /r/nofap. Not actually placing ads but rather actually interacting with the members, and seeing if they'd be interested in such a tool. More work, but also more viable to get customers that are die-hard fans sort of thing.
