Platform Policies & Resources

While we strive to ensure our members have the most up-to-date policy and product information from the major platforms, the best sources of truth will always be their respective business and consumer help centers. To make keeping apprised of updates easier, BSI has aggregated relevant platform policies and resources in one place for you.

For additional guidance on navigating brand safety & suitability on platforms, check out BSI’s recently published Marketer's Guide to Brand Safety & Suitability on Platforms.
