User Safety Policy

Last Updated on: November 5, 2025

Google’s user safety policy protects users from malicious websites, phishing attempts, malware, and anything that could compromise their security or privacy through Google Ads. This is one of Google’s most strictly enforced policies. Violations typically result in immediate account suspension without warning because they pose direct harm to users. Even if your site was compromised accidentally (like through a hacked WordPress plugin), Google will suspend your account the moment their systems detect malicious activity. You’ll need to clean your site completely, prove it’s safe, and then appeal for reinstatement.

Example: A business’s website is compromised by hackers who inject code that redirects visitors to a phishing site, resulting in immediate Google Ads account suspension under the user safety policy.
