Advertising policy

At SOMTECH MEDIA, we believe in providing valuable, relevant, and high-quality content to our users. In order to support our platform and continue offering educational resources, we display ads through Google AdSense and other advertising networks. This Advertising Policy outlines how we use ads, the types of ads you may encounter on our site, and your rights regarding those ads.

1. Use of Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to serve advertisements on our website. Google AdSense is an advertising network that helps us display relevant ads based on your interests and browsing history. These ads are delivered by Google, and Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website and other sites across the internet.

Google AdSense uses the DoubleClick cookie to serve ads based on your visit to our site and other websites on the internet. This enables Google to serve you ads that are tailored to your interests.

2. Types of Ads

The ads displayed on SOMTECH MEDIA may include:

Display Ads: Visual advertisements that can appear in various forms, including banners, text ads, and image ads.
Text Ads: Ads composed of text that may be placed within content or as standalone units.
Video Ads: Video advertisements that may appear before, during, or after content on our platform.
Affiliate Ads: Ads promoting third-party products or services that are relevant to our content and user interests.

These ads are provided by Google AdSense and other third-party networks.

3. Ad Targeting

Google AdSense uses a feature called Interest-Based Advertising to show ads that are more relevant to you based on your interests. This means that ads you see on SOMTECH MEDIA may be related to your past interactions with our website or other websites you have visited. The purpose is to provide a better user experience and serve ads that are more aligned with your preferences.

Google also provides an option to opt out of personalized ads through the Google Ad Settings page. You can manage your ad settings and control the types of ads that are shown to you. For more details on how to manage your ad preferences, please visit Google Ad Settings.

SOMTECH MEDIA and Google AdSense collect certain information when you interact with ads. This may include:

Cookies: These are small text files placed on your device to track your interaction with ads and personalize the ad experience.
Web Beacons: These are small, invisible images that help track the effectiveness of ads and gather data for advertising purposes.
Usage Data: Information about how you interact with ads, pages you visit, and other user activities.

We do not share your personal information with third-party advertisers. However, Google may use this data to provide more targeted advertising. Please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy for more information on how your data is used.

Your privacy is important to us, and we ensure that all advertising practices comply with applicable privacy laws and regulations.

5. No Endorsement of Advertisers

The appearance of advertisements on SOMTECH MEDIA does not imply endorsement, approval, or recommendation of the advertised products, services, or companies. We do not have control over the content of the ads, and we do not endorse any third-party advertiser or their content unless explicitly stated.

6. Prohibited Content in Ads

We adhere to the Google AdSense Program Policies and do not allow the display of ads promoting:
