[/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”General Guidelines” tab_id=”1488397443693-e064ec0d-6d22″]
  • Ads cannot be designed to blend into page content. A 1px border is required or the ad must be clearly defined within the allowable ad space.
  • Ads may not blink, shake, flicker or flash in a disruptive manner. The look and feel of ads cannot match the MS Windows Alert scheme or misrepresent a user’s prompts as an ad. False functionality (a.k.a. fake buttons) is not allowed.
  • The action of clicking on ads must not initiate an application download, and all clicks must open a new browser window.
[/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Audio Guidelines” tab_id=”1488397550754-3574a82b-d7ea”]
  • All audio must be initiated by mouse-hover or user-initiated clicks, with an area of the ad clearly labeled with “hover for sound,” “sound on” or appropriate icons, such as a G clef or speaker. Once initiated, there must be a clear way to turn off the sound with an area of the ad labeled with “mouse over to turn off audio,” “sound off” or an appropriate icon.
  • All ads are subject to review.
[/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Deceptive Functionality” tab_id=”1488397597979-9a479549-503d”]
  • All functionality visually indicated within ads must be working and not designed to deceive.
  • Non-functioning drop-down menus, radio buttons and text boxes will not be accepted.

  • All click interactions that initiate the load of a new Web page must open that Web page in a new browser window.
  • A click-thrugh can launch only one new browser window.
  • Any click-thrugh included with an ad must take users to the website of the advertiser who purchased the ad space unless the advertiser has provided written permission from the site allowing the link to be used.
  • Mouse-over interaction cannot link a user to a new website.
