Ad Destinations Policy Violation
Last Updated on: October 16, 2025
An ad destinations policy violation happens when Google determines that the landing page or destination URL linked to your ad violates their content policies or user experience standards. This includes destinations with malware, deceptive content, or non-functional pages. The violation can result in ad disapproval or account-level suspension depending on the severity and repeat offenses.
Example: An ad links to a landing page that automatically downloads software without the user’s consent, which triggers an ad destinations policy violation.
