We’ve found some policy violations on site AdSense approval

[brad18]

Hi, can you please help me. when trying to get AdSense approval I get this message “We’ve found some policy violations on your site which means that your site isn’t ready to show ads” I wanted to know which policy I’m violating when I go to sites and see the details.. it says the same thing. It doesn’t specify what I’m violating. Thanks

Have you visited the AdSense Policy pages to review their policies? Have you added your ads.txt file to your site(s)? Google started implementing policy changes several weeks ago and they may have changed since you last reviewed the policies.

There are some discussions here that may help: [webmasterworld.com...] and [webmasterworld.com...] for a few examples.

Hi thanks for replying, I've checked my website and it complies with AdSense policy I think the mistake was privacy policy page I've changed it with cookies option and sent for approval again. Hopefully I get approved..and one more thing but aren't we supposed to add ads.txt after getting approved. I mean how can I even add it I don't know what's inside the ads.txt file. Thanks

If you are not clear about the ads.txt file, go to the search feature here in the upper right and look for info on ads.txt, there are many discussions and examples. It is a very simple tiny file and it is supposed to assist in the Media-partners google bot for AdSense in sorting out ads for your sites.

Hello, I've added ads.txt thanks to you. Just to be clear, I don't have an approved account. I'm trying to get AdSense approval. It's ok to to add this file before approval right?

Unless you have a valid code from which ever ad provider you are using it is meaningless.

Figure out why you are not being approved and go from there.
