Have you experienced an unauthorized access issue with your AdSense Account?

Unfortunately, even for AdSense publishers, there’s always the risk of an unauthorized source compromising your secure login credentials. In these instances, you might be locked out of your AdSense account. Here’s what you can do to recover your account and avoid the same issue in the future:

For starters, these triggers can help you identify if your account has been compromised.  
  • You’ve noticed suspicious account activity (for example: there are new users that you haven’t granted access to; the payment details have changed without your permission; your security settings have been updated; and your email notification settings have changed).
  • You cannot login to your AdSense account.
 If you’ve found that your account has been compromised, follow these steps to resolve the issue:
  1. Run a malware scan on your devices
  2. Visit our Login Troubleshooter. If you’re locked out of your account, the troubleshooter will help you recover your Google Account. Once you’ve recovered your Google Account: 
  3. Then, the troubleshooter will take you to the Account login issues form, which will direct you to an AdSense account issues specialists.  
    • The specialist will start an investigation and communicate next steps (including the investigation report and reimbursement options). 
    • For a speedy resolution, be sure to include the following with the form as accurately as possible: 
      • Proof of your identity and address using acceptable documents.
      • Proof of a recent AdSense payment, such as a copy of a check, Western Union receipt or bank statement clearly showing a recent AdSense EFT deposit.
      • The URL of a test page of your website. This is to prove that you own and manage the domain listed in your account.
It’s important to note that the Account login issues form cannot be used to report disputes between authorized users. The administrator of the account is responsible for all user permissions. In general, it’s a best practice to remove former employees and inactive users from your account to help prevent unauthorized changes.  

Unfortunately, in some cases with ongoing security concerns, account reinstatement may not be possible. The AdSense specialist team will let you know if this is the case. 

We understand that compromised login credentials may be a huge problem for you and your business. Bookmark these valuable help resources to help retrieve a hijacked account:

Introducing a new user consent policy

Today we’re launching a new  user consent policy . This policy requires publishers with site visitors from the European Union to ask their permission for using their data. Why are we doing this? European Union data protection authorities requested some changes to current practices for obtaining end user consents. It has always been Google’s policy to comply with privacy laws, so we’ve agreed to make certain changes affecting our own products and partners using Google products. What do you need to do? If your websites are getting visitors from  any of the countries in the European Union , you must comply with t he EU user consent policy . We recommend you start working on a policy-compliant user consent mechanism today. There’s guidance from data protection authorities and IABs across Europe on what is required to comply with relevant laws; the IAB's IAB Europe Guidance: Five Practical Steps to help companies comply with the E-Privacy Directive is a good place to start.

Demystifying AdSense policies with John Brown: What to do if you receive a warning message (Part 4)

Editor’s note: John Brown, the Head of Publisher Policy Communications, is explaining what to do if you receive a policy warning message. In this post, I’d like to talk about policy warning messages and what steps you should take if you receive one. I’ll also answer some of the most common questions around warning messages. What is a warning message? We send out warning messages to our publishers if their site, or a page of their site, violates our AdSense policies. For minor policy violations that can be fixed fairly easily, our first step is to issue a warning. Where can I see my warning message? Warning messages are sent to the email address associated with your AdSense account. You can manage your contact email address under Personal Settings in your account. You can also check out outstanding policy violations by visiting the Status page in your AdSense account. What do I do if I get a warning? If you receive a warning message, follow these steps to fix the violation as quickly...
