About Meta's Non-Discrimination Policy
Meta prohibits using their ad platform to discriminate against individuals or groups. Discriminatory ads unlawfully deny opportunities based on personal attributes such as:
-
Race or ethnicity
-
National origin
-
Religion
-
Age
-
Sex or sexual orientation
-
Gender identity
-
Family/marital status
-
Disability
-
Medical or genetic condition
This certification is particularly important for advertisers in housing, employment, or financial services, where opportunities must be inclusive to all groups regardless of protected characteristics.
Your ads will be rejected if you don't complete this certification process. Only users with Full control Business portfolio permissions can certify compliance on behalf of system users.
