Advertising And Featured Listings Policy

How promotional visibility works on Splash Pad Atlas, how sponsored placements are labeled, and what payment does not influence.

Promotional Visibility

Featured or sponsored placements can increase visibility, but they do not override editorial standards, inclusion criteria, or accuracy notes.

Where Ads Should Not Appear

Ads should not be placed on search results, underdeveloped pages, or navigation-only hubs when the page does not yet provide enough standalone editorial value.

Separation From Editorial Coverage

Payment can affect labeled promotional visibility, but it does not decide whether a place is included, whether a profile is indexed, or how practical notes are written.
