How we explain advertising.

Who is responsible

Luis Vega is AdCheckMe’s founder and publisher. Our focus is consumer education: understanding the reasons an ad platform discloses, learning common advertising mechanisms, and finding available controls. AdCheckMe does not operate an ad-profile detection service.

Sources and original explanations

We prioritize official help pages, platform announcements, and other primary sources for product behavior. Guides provide claim-specific links so you can read the source and check whether it applies to your account or region. A platform’s description explains its stated behavior; it is not an independent audit.

Our contribution is the explanation around those sources: practical steps, comparisons, limitations, and fictional examples. We do not treat a relevant-looking ad as evidence of a particular targeting method. Where the evidence is incomplete, we say what remains unknown.

AI assistance and review status

AI tools have assisted with this site’s research, drafting, editing, and development. The guides in this redesign were assembled with AI assistance and checked against the linked source material during preparation. That process is not the same as an independent human editorial review.

We only attribute a human review when it has actually taken place. A guide must receive that review before it becomes eligible to carry advertisements. A publication or source-check date alone is not a claim of expert review, professional credentials, or personal testing of every platform setting.

Dates and changing interfaces

Dates describe a page’s publication or a substantive content check or revision. We do not advance them simply because the site was rebuilt. Platform menus, regional availability, and product rollouts can change after a check, so instructions include alternatives where the screen may differ.

We do not promise a fixed publishing schedule. The site has been refocused on consumer guides; older publisher-focused articles, news roundups, and the annual report have been retired or replaced.

Corrections

Send the page address, the passage in question, and supporting information to adcheck.me.team@gmail.com. Avoid sending personal ad-profile information. When a material factual correction is made, we add a correction note and update the page’s revision date. Typographical fixes do not imply a new source review.

Advertising and independence

Paid placements, when enabled, are labeled “Advertisements.” Fictional teaching examples are labeled separately and are not live ads. We do not ask readers to click advertisements to support the site or to discover how targeting works.

Ad revenue does not determine editorial conclusions. We do not sell favorable coverage, and advertising is not an endorsement of an advertiser or product. The guided explainer does not share its selections with advertising systems.
