The display ads on CGDirecor occupy their own space, detached from any influence on our editorial direction and content. There are no advertisements that are not identified as such and G100 is not willing to permanently sacrifice the long-term credibility of its content for ads disguised as content.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, it is impossible to do entirely without advertisements because running this site costs a lot of money.<\/p>\n<p>Concerning content, the editorial team acts completely independently of any advertising customers and advertising bookings on G100. The editors are not salespeople and are in no way involved in selling advertising banners on G100.<\/p>\n<p>This content independence is the elementary basis for a high level of credibility among the readers and the community. The focus of reporting is exclusively catered to their interests - and not to the interests of advertising partners.<\/p>\n<p>The following paragraphs disclose in detail which advertisements are used on G100. Transparency is intended to create understanding and ultimately promote the acceptance of advertising on G100.<\/p>\n<p>Only those who do not block the ads contribute to ensuring content independence.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pop-upslayersinterstitials\"><\/span>Pop-ups\/layers\/interstitials<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In contrast to many other websites, G100 has no advertising formats such as pop-ups, layers, and interstitials that overlay the website's content.<\/p>\n<p>If a layer is nevertheless visible, please reach out to us (info@g100.us) with a screenshot of the banner in question to help fix it straight away. Problems and errors with advertising banners are taken seriously and are actively investigated to eliminate them as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Banners_display_ads\"><\/span>Banners &amp; display ads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>G100 relies on advertising banners for financing. Ads on the subject of eroticism and &#8220;subscription traps&#8221; are excluded, and editorial content and contributions from the community always have priority. Banners and display ads are also clearly recognizable as such.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sponsored_articles\"><\/span>Sponsored articles<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Articles usually published on G100 (news, notes, tests, reports, ...) are written by an independent editor and aim to provide objective information. In addition, sponsored articles may appear at irregular intervals that are not written by an independent editor and contain advertising messages from an advertising client. We always clearly mark such sponsored articles with the word &#8220;[Sponsored]&#8221; both at the top of the article and in any article list.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Affiliate_links\"><\/span>Affiliate links<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In addition to advertising banners, G100 uses affiliate links. Some online stores (e.g. Amazon) offer partner programs that enable the partner to receive a share of the revenue from purchases. To do this, they must include their partner ID in links to the store and then hope that purchases will be made in the store due to clicking on this link.<\/p>\n<p>The insertion of the G100 partner ID in store links is not carried out by an external service provider, but by G100 itself, so that an external service provider cannot execute JavaScript code on G100 every time a page is called up (security, data protection, loading time, ...). Intermediate insertions such as &#8220;You are now leaving our domain&#8221; can also be prevented in this way.<\/p>\n<p>The links are not rewritten when the page is loaded, but only when a link is clicked, because this works more reliably when the page content changes dynamically and because you can find out the final link destination via mouse hover before clicking instead of only seeing the domain of an affiliate network at first glance in some cases.<\/p>\n<p>The linked products do not become more expensive as a result of the affiliate links.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Deactivate_AdBlock\"><\/span>Deactivate AdBlock!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To be able to report independently and offer G100 and its connected forum in the future, the entire G100 team would like to ask you to <a href=\"https:\/\/help.adblockplus.org\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/1500002778481-Turn-ABP-on-off-manually\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">deactivate your AdBlocker<\/a> on G100.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What G100 stands for G100 reports independently.
