1. What’s Allowed – and What’s Not

Ads are reviewed—automatically and manually—to ensure compliance. Violating policies leads to rejection or removal 

Common Violations:

• Misleading or deceptive content
  
• Ads referencing personal attributes such as race, religion, or health
  
• Targeting minors with adult content or weight loss ads intended for users under 18
  

2. Sensitive Content Restrictions

Specific types of content must meet stricter guidelines:

• Personal Attributes: Ads must not imply users’ sensitive data like medical conditions, financial status, or identity 
• Health & Weight-Loss: Should only target adults (18+) and avoid misleading claims or stunt visuals.
  
• Adult Content: Anything sexual or explicit is not allowed.
  

3. Content Always Prohibited

Some types of content are completely disallowed:

• Illegal products (e.g., drugs, weapons)
  
• Scammy or exploitative financial offers
  
• Hate speech, harassment, or discrimination
  

4. Permitted with Special Conditions

Certain content is allowed, but only under strict conditions:

• Alcohol: Must comply with age restrictions and local laws
  
• Gambling & Politics: Require special authorization and target specific audiences
  
• Political or Social Issues: Must include “Paid for by” disclosures and meet local legal standards
  

5. How Meta Enforces These Rules

Meta uses a layered approach:

1. Remove content that violates policies
   
2. Reduce the visibility of borderline ads
   
3. Inform the advertiser about any issues
   

Advertisers can request a review if they believe their ad was unfairly disapproved.

Why Compliance Matters

• User protection from scams and harmful content
  
• Brand reputation remains intact and professional
  
• Avoid penalties, such as account restrictions or ad rejection
  
• Ensure ad effectiveness by maintaining visibility and credibility
