Advertisement Policy

Civil Insights (www.civilinsights.org) welcomes advertisements from reputable organizations and individuals that align with our values and interests. This advertisement policy outlines the guidelines and standards for advertising on our website.

Advertising Guidelines

1. Relevance: Advertisements must be relevant to our audience and align with the educational and informational nature of our website, particularly in the fields of UPSC Civil Services and State PCS examinations.
2. Accuracy: Advertisements must be truthful, accurate, and not misleading. They should not contain deceptive or fraudulent claims, false information, or exaggerated statements.
3. Ethical Standards: Advertisements must comply with ethical standards and industry best practices. They should not promote illegal activities, discrimination, hate speech, violence, or harmful products or services.
4. Non-Intrusiveness: Advertisements should be clearly distinguishable from editorial content and not interfere with the user experience. They should not mimic website features or deceive users into clicking on them.
5. Transparency: Advertisements should be clearly labeled as such, using phrases like “Advertisement,” “Sponsored Content,” or “Paid Promotion.” Users should be able to easily identify and differentiate between editorial content and advertisements.

Acceptance and Rejection

1. Approval Process: All advertisements are subject to review and approval by Civil Insights before being published on our website. We reserve the right to reject or remove any advertisement that does not meet our standards or violates our policies.
