In November 2025, two marketing-focused feature sets were delivered in the duckduckgo/privacy-configuration repository, delivering configurable promotions and targeted campaigns with platform-specific controls. The Black Friday Promotion Campaign for macOS and iOS targets the US locale, supports a configurable discount percentage, and can be toggled on/off. The US Win-back Campaign was enabled with activation controls and minimum OS version requirements, updating configuration to support activation. These changes improve marketing experimentation velocity, retention leverage, and platform-consistent behavior. No major bugs were fixed in this period; the work focused on feature delivery, configuration governance, and release readiness. Technologies demonstrated include cross-platform feature flags, locale-based targeting, and OS-version gating.
