ADVERTISING

Useful contacts come first.

The directory and appeal template are free to use. Advertising helps support their maintenance.

Current status

Google AdSense is integrated on eligible information pages. Ads can appear only after Google approves the site and account, and delivery also depends on available demand and visitor consent. A blank ad area or no visible ad is not evidence of a successful approval.

How placements work

Advertising is clearly labeled and visually separate from vendor appeal buttons and contact details. Payment will not buy a favorable detection claim, a “verified” label, priority in the alphabetical directory, or a promise of blacklist removal.

Official vendor contacts remain directly accessible. No advertisement should impersonate a security vendor, look like an appeal submission button, or suggest that payment is required to reach a published free channel.

Your choices

Advertising is not loaded on the appeal generator or privacy page. Where Google displays a consent message, you can choose whether to consent and revisit your choice through its privacy settings link. Analytics uses a separate optional choice. Read our privacy information.
