Advertising & Sponsored Content Policy

1. Sponsored and featured placements

HabeshaReach may offer sponsored listings, featured placement, display advertising, or other promoted visibility. Paid placement must be distinguishable from ordinary editorial or directory results through an appropriate label such as “Sponsored”, “Featured”, or “Advertisement”.

2. Advertiser responsibilities

Advertisers are responsible for the truth, legality, permissions, substantiation, targeting, landing pages, offers, prices, images, and claims in their advertisements. Advertisers must identify themselves accurately and comply with applicable consumer, advertising, privacy, sector, and local laws.

3. Prohibited advertisements

• Illegal, fraudulent, counterfeit, exploitative, unsafe, or discriminatory products, services, or schemes.
• Scams, phishing, malware, deceptive subscriptions, pyramid schemes, or unrealistic financial claims.
• Hate, harassment, sexual exploitation, graphic violence, or content targeting vulnerable people unfairly.
• Infringing content or unauthorized use of names, images, logos, testimonials, or personal information.
• Unlawful or unsubstantiated medical, legal, financial, qualification, or guaranteed-result claims.

4. Misleading advertising

Advertisements must not conceal material conditions, use fake urgency, impersonate other providers, manipulate reviews, misrepresent prices, or create a false impression of scarcity, approval, popularity, results, or official status.

5. Review, rejection, and removal

HabeshaReach may request evidence, reject an advertisement before publication, pause it, remove it, or restrict the advertiser when content violates policy, creates legal or safety risk, receives credible complaints, or could damage platform trust. Commercial acceptance does not prevent later moderation.

6. Advertising, ranking, and verification

Payment may influence placement only where disclosed. Advertising does not grant verification, and verification does not guarantee advertising approval or organic ranking. Neither advertising nor verification means HabeshaReach endorses, recommends, guarantees, or certifies the advertiser.

7. Enquiries

Until a dedicated advertising submission or checkout exists, prospective advertisers can review this policy and contact HabeshaReach. An enquiry does not guarantee acceptance, placement, audience size, performance, or availability.
