Appeal policy decision
If you've fixed your ad/destination or believe that we've made an error, appeal the policy decision directly from your Google Ads account to request a review. After we confirm that the ads and the destination to which the ads direct is compliant, we can approve your ads. If you aren't able to fix these violations or choose not to, remove your ad to help prevent your account from becoming suspended in the future for repeated policy violations.
