Content Acceptability Policy
Introduction
The Place Exchange Content Acceptability Policy sets out the restrictions related to advertising or other content that may be delivered via the Place Exchange platform. Do not use Place Exchange if you do not agree to this Policy. This Policy has examples of restricted content, but does not attempt to list all restricted content. Ultimately, Place Exchange will decide whether content violates this Policy and we retain the right to reject any arrangements that we believe pose reputational risk to Place Exchange, regardless of content.
Each Publisher/media company with Inventory available via the Place Exchange services will have different advertising acceptability guidelines which will govern the display of advertisements or other content on their displays. Content may be in compliance with this Policy but still unacceptable for display by a Publisher pursuant to their requirements.
