Advertising Policy.

Clear separation and labels

Advertising must be visually distinguishable from editorial content. We use labels such as Advertisement, Sponsored, Paid partnership or Presented by, placed near the relevant headline or placement. We do not use labels that make paid content look independent. Advertisers cannot control independent news, reviews or corrections.

Sponsored content

Sponsored work must identify the sponsor, show a visible sponsorship label near the headline, meet factual and safety standards, receive editorial review and avoid implying a false endorsement by TechView Africa. Sponsored content is not presented as an independent review.

Prohibited or restricted advertising

• Illegal products or services, fraud, malware, spyware or counterfeit products.
• Deceptive financial claims, fake investment opportunities or misleading job offers.
• Discriminatory, hateful, extremist, adult sexual, unlicensed medical or illegal-drug content.
• Weapons, gambling directed at minors and products designed to bypass security or identity controls.
• Ads that imitate system warnings, download buttons, editorial navigation, news alerts or security notifications.

Claims and placement

Advertisers must support objective claims. Ads must not obscure content, trigger accidental clicks, sit deceptively close to navigation, outnumber meaningful editorial content or encourage users to click merely to support the website. We may reject or remove a campaign that creates reader, security, legal or reputational risk.

Advertising complaints

Report a misleading, harmful or inappropriate advertisement with its URL or a description of where it appeared, the date and the concern. Do not submit payment credentials or identity documents. The advertising and editorial teams will assess the report and may pause or remove a placement while it is reviewed.
