2. General Principles
- Transparency: All advertisements will be clearly distinguished from editorial content. Advertisements will be labeled with the word “Advertisement” to ensure our readers can easily distinguish between sponsored content and our own independent health information.
- Editorial Independence: Our editorial content is free from commercial influence. Advertisements and sponsored content do not influence our editorial decisions or the content we produce.
- User Experience: Advertisements should not disrupt the user experience or interfere with the user’s ability to access content. This includes limiting intrusive ad formats such as pop-ups, auto-playing videos with sound, and flashing banners.
3. Acceptable Advertising
- Relevance: Advertisements must be relevant to health, wellness, fitness, nutrition, or medicine, and should offer value to our readers.
- Compliance: All advertisements must comply with applicable laws, regulations, and industry standards, including those related to health and advertising.
- Safety and Truthfulness: Advertisements must not promote products or services that are known to be harmful or misleading. Claims made in advertisements must be substantiated.
4. Prohibited Advertising
- No Misleading Claims: Advertisements must not contain false, deceptive, or exaggerated claims about health benefits.
- No Sensitive Content: Advertisements must not promote alcohol, tobacco, firearms, or any products or services that are illegal or considered sensitive or controversial.
- No Discrimination: Advertisements must not discriminate or stereotype individuals based on race, gender, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age.
5. Review and Approval
- Pre-Approval: All advertisements and sponsored content must be reviewed and approved by UpCubeHealth.com’s advertising team prior to publication. This review process ensures compliance with our Advertising Policy.
- Right to Reject: UpCubeHealth.com reserves the right to reject, cancel, or remove any advertisement for any reason at any time without liability, even if the advertisement has already been accepted or published.
6. Sponsored Content
- Disclosure: Sponsored content will be clearly identified as such with disclosures that are easy for our readers to find and understand.
- Content Standards: Sponsored content must adhere to the same standards as our editorial content, providing accurate and useful information to our readers.
