Goggle adds appropriate content by calendar type
The google adds are oftentimes inappropriate for our calendar. I know we don't have a premium but we are using our calendar
'just for kids' and the adds google imbeds are not appropriate for that catagory. Your note said they would filter. Could you make them control their adds better
thank

Re: Goggle adds appropriate content by calendar type
When a member notifies us of inappropriate ad content (and we need the url of the ad, too) we immediately remove it from Google (it takes their system about 2 hours to process this)

Google ads are *supposed* to be "family friendly", but they do not always have the quality control process we would like. For example, we recently removed all ads from the Hooters restaurant chain, and also from a dating site.

Re: Goggle adds appropriate content by calendar type
Sorry not good enough for us. An after the fact fix is too late when a family starts seeing adds they should have not seen. Not on our site.

Please remove us from your site. Too bad, we recommeded you calendar to a lot of our friends but you are not keeping with your 'adds apropriate for catagory statement.

Thanks

Re: Goggle adds appropriate content by calendar type
Unfortunately, that is the best recourse we can offer to non-subscribers at this time.

We have researched this issue and found no company has a perfect record in this area. It is unfortunate that Google, with all the resources at its disposal, isn't a more effective monitor of its own content.
