Google wrote, “In November 2024, the Google Ads Circumventing Systems policy will be updated.”
“Advertisers with the Gambling and games certification must recertify or stop relying on the certification to advertise products in scope of the Gambling and games policy if a material change has occurred since the certification application was submitted,” Google added.
If you do not comply, Google said, they “will suspend your Google Ads accounts upon detection and without prior warning.” Google added “and you will not be allowed to advertise with us again.”
