Its advertisement campaign claims that the program can show products with lower prices in different stores, or similar products with supposedly great deals. However, the developers deceive users into thinking that this program is somehow affiliated with major retailers. Our research has shown that that is not true. Indeed the program does not have access to product data bases, and merely displays random advertisements.

You ought to remove PriceZilla, because the advertisements it promotes come from various third parties. Sure, its website states that potential clients must undergo a scrupulous selection process for their ads to be advertized by PriceZilla. However, this is not entirely true, because the company grants its clients full control over their advertisements and allows the clients to modify them.
