Important things to know about the Ad review center

  • You can find it on the Brand safety page in your AdSense, Ad Manager, or AdMob account.
  • It supports ads of all targeting types (contextual, personalized, and placement).
  • You can use its filter and search functions to help you find ads to review and block.
  • It doesn't support all AdSense products.
  • You can only block ads at the product level, not on a site-by-site basis.
Ad blocking should be used sparingly. Allowing all ads creates the most competitive atmosphere in the ad auction, with the largest number of ads possible competing for an impression.
