Thanks for the update on the Triple Jangro. I've long been concerned with the ability of CJ employees, and Advertisers to reverse engineer my campaigns and websites. It has prompted me to go the extra mile to conceal referrer data, and other data that would reveal my campaign strategies.

For example, I never stuff the keyword into my landing page url's. Instead I use a number, set a cookie, and then redirect the user to a generic looking url.

Secondly, I only list a handful of my websites in the CJ Account manager. Advertisers can see this information, so it's important not to show all the cards in your deck. Instead I add a site id variable to the SID field, which then tells me which site the commission came from.

It's not that I don't trust CJ, or the advertisers I work with, it's just good business.
