Critical Compliance Risks
Subscription Transparency Issues
Failure to clearly disclose recurring billing terms or using 'hidden' cancellation paths leads to high churn and platform penalties. Similar rules apply to e-commerce subscription models.
Misleading Speed/Performance Claims
Claiming 'X% increase in ROI' or 'Instant results' without small-print disclaimers triggers automated accuracy bots. These are flagged as unsubstantiated claims.
Data Privacy & GDPR Signals
Implying you have access to sensitive user data or failing to link to a compliant privacy policy kills ad account authority. Review EU DSA compliance requirements.
Inaccurate Pricing Comparisons
Misrepresenting competitor pricing or features without recent, verifiable data can lead to legal 'Unfair Competition' flags. Use the keyword risk checker to spot risky comparison language.
Free Trial Dark Patterns
Auto-enrollment into paid plans after trial expiration without clear notice violates FTC and DSA transparency requirements. Cancellation flow must be as easy as sign-up.
AI Feature Overstatement
Claiming AI capabilities that don't exist or overstating automation accuracy triggers misleading content flags. All AI feature claims require substantiation.
Platform Specific Restrictions
Meta Guidelines
"Focus on 'Case Studies'. Meta values verifiable business results over generic hype for software products. See Meta ad policies."
TikTok Guidelines
"Show the tool in action. 'Screen-record' style UGC content converts best and has the lowest rejection rate for apps. Review TikTok community guidelines."
LinkedIn Guidelines
"Account quality score is driven by CTR and professional relevance. Irrelevant B2B spam leads to rapid ad throttling. See LinkedIn advertising policies."
Google Guidelines
"Google Ads requires transparent pricing for subscription software. Landing pages must clearly show recurring costs, cancellation process, and refund policy. Check Google Ads policy guide."
