And if you'd receive 10 valid requests, would we increase the amount of
advertisements on our website again? And for how long do we state that the
advertisements last? 

You mentioned possible randomizing the position; do you also mean mixing
(like only showing a few of all available ones) or do we have a promise that
the ad is always visible)?

I can understand that, for continuous support, an advertisement stays until
the support is over. What about one-time (but quite large) donations? Or
is that not a possible target?
