Are you interested in shaping and governing online advertising standards?

The Acceptable Ads Committee is looking for digital rights organizations to become part of setting and maintaining the standards for nonintrusive, exceptionally-researched online advertising formats.

By joining the Acceptable Ads Committee, you will represent the users’ voice and contribute to finding a good balance between respecting the user experience and delivering real value to content publishers and online advertisers.

The Acceptable Ads Committee is the body that establishes the criteria for what types of advertisements are acceptable, and we’d like you to become an important part of it.

We’re searching for global representatives from digital rights organizations or individuals who have documented experience in representing the interests of the civil society. Apply now: https://www.acceptableadscommittee.org/join/

About the Acceptable Ads Committee

The independent Acceptable Ads Committee (AAC) determines the criteria that define which ads are acceptable. It also governs the Acceptable Ads Standard. Established in 2017, the AAC creates nonintrusive, exceptionally-researched ad standards that respect user experience while delivering real value to content publishers and online advertisers.
