Google publisher restrictions

Google helps to enable a free and open Internet by providing the ability for publishers to monetise their content and for advertisers to reach prospective customers with useful, relevant products and services.

Publisher restrictions identify content that's restricted from receiving certain sources of advertising. By content, we mean anything present on your page or app – including other advertisements and links to other sites or apps. If your content is labelled with an inventory restriction, fewer advertising sources will be eligible to bid on it. In some cases, this will mean that no advertising sources are bidding on your inventory and no ads will appear on your content. Please note that Google Ads (formerly AdWords) advertisements won't serve on content labelled with these restrictions. Therefore, while you can choose to monetise content covered by these Google Publisher Restrictions, this content will likely receive less advertising than other, nonrestricted content.

These restrictions apply in addition to any other policies governing your use of Google publisher products.
