Clicking on own alternate ads

Is there a problem with clicking on our own alternate ads (our OWN banners being served in the absence of Adsense ads)? I just did this twice to see if the alternate was working - without even thinking. The link did not work, and the words "privacy report" flashed at the bottom of my screen, for whatever reason. And then I realized hey, wait, this is Google so maybe I wasn't supposed to click.

This wasn't even posted on my site yet, I was just looking at it in my HTML editing program. Any chance Google's going to boot me out for this?

I clicked on my own ads when I first got it and they didn't do nothing to me. Just don't do it again or they might kick you out.

Your own alternate ads have nothing to do with google. They could care less if you spend your entire day clicking them.
