Safety and Security: Sale of free items and official services

Google provides translated versions of our Help Center, though they are not meant to change the content of our policies. The English version is the official language we use to enforce our policies. To view this article in a different language, use the language dropdown at the bottom of the page.

The Google Ads policy on the sale of free items and official services will change around April 19, 2013. The policy is changing to prohibit services that deceive users with the sale of free items and government services. The change will affect all countries. We made this decision to protect users from the deceptive sale of free items and government services.

See a preview of the updated version of the "Sale of free items and official services" policy, which will replace the current policy on April 19.
