Yeah OFF is a good position for Google's version of hybrid CPM. Excuse the silly question but why would anyone want to put ads on a privacy page?

Ah...it uses the same template header.inc for all pages therefore I can switch all ads on or off if required with one file upload. The same applies to the lhs navigation as well with its AdLinks block, one file and all are replaced sitewide. A lot easier than find and replace:-)

Does one still have to write to Google to switch these off? Checked the entire AdSense site, nothing, then the search here at WebmasterWorld and can't find any other answer but to write in. Correct?

Sadly, yes.
But if Al Gore was running Google, it would be a switch we could click on/off.
Think of the energy saved.

me too! I use the same as huskypup, an included header and footer but I add pages to be excluded like this if ($adsense == "on")# switch is in my config file
{
if(!strstr($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], "sitemap.php") &&
!strstr($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], "policy.php"))
{
$ads = 'insert ad code here';
}
else
{
$ads = "";
}
}
else
{
#do nothing
}
print "$ads"; works perfect for me

I'm not sure if they have changed their policy however when I implemented this at the very start of AdSense I requested permission and received it.

Why not, it is allowed to put ads on 404 error pages (as long as it has 'content'), serious brand damage.
