Source and Methodology Policy

Last reviewed: August 4, 2026

Source hierarchy

SenseApproval prioritizes current Google AdSense Help, Google Publisher Policies, country-specific AdSense terms, Google Search Central, Google Analytics, Tag Manager, and Cloudflare documentation for platform-specific implementation facts.

Classification

Each requirement is classified as required, conditional, recommended, account-only, rendered-browser review, or human review. Optional SEO or security enhancements do not become AdSense failures merely because they are useful.

Scoring

Only observable evidence contributes directly to public-site quality. Unknown account, traffic, consent-runtime, ownership, and site-wide originality requirements remain unverified and limit the verified-readiness score.

Limitations

A public crawler cannot access private Google account data or conclusively judge ownership, originality, intent, or invalid traffic. Reports explain these limitations rather than treating unknowns as passes.
