Advertising Policy

Last Updated: 2026-01-10

At Dutch Highlights, our mission is to provide football fans worldwide with high-quality news, match highlights, and analysis for free. To support our professional editorial team and maintain our technical infrastructure, we display advertisements and use affiliate links.

This Advertising Policy outlines our standards for the ads you see on our site and how we maintain our editorial independence.

1. Editorial Independence

The most important rule at Dutch Highlights is that advertisements do not influence our editorial content.

  • Our journalists and analysts write based on facts and sporting merit, not the interests of advertisers.

  • We maintain a strict "editorial wall" between our business team and our content creators.

  • No advertiser can influence our match reports, player ratings, or transfer rumors.

2. Types of Advertising We Use

To provide a diverse experience, we utilize several forms of digital advertising:

  • Display Ads: We use automated networks like Google AdSense to show banners and video ads. These are clearly distinguishable from our news articles.

  • Affiliate Links: We may participate in affiliate marketing programs. If you purchase a product (such as a football jersey or a streaming subscription) through a link on our site, we may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.

  • Sponsored Content: On rare occasions, we may publish content funded by a partner. Any such content will be clearly labeled as "Sponsored," "Partner Content," or "Promoted" so you can easily distinguish it from our independent journalism.

3. Prohibited Content

We strive to ensure that all ads on Dutch Highlights are appropriate for a global sports audience. We do not knowingly allow ads that contain:

  • Deceptive, false, or misleading claims.

  • Hate speech, violence, or illegal activities.

  • Adult content or offensive material.

  • Malware or any software that could harm your device.

4. Third-Party Responsibility

While we partner with reputable advertising networks, Dutch Highlights does not officially endorse the products or services featured in third-party ads. If you click on an ad and leave our website, you are subject to the terms and privacy policies of that third-party advertiser.

5. Transparency and User Experience

We are committed to a positive user experience. We aim to:

  • Ensure that ads do not obstruct your ability to read our football news.

  • Limit the number of pop-ups or intrusive ad formats.

  • Provide a secure environment for all football fans.

6. Your Choices

You have the right to control how you interact with ads. As mentioned in our Privacy Settings, you can manage your cookie preferences or use browser settings to block certain types of tracking and personalized advertising.
