Advertising Policy — The Empire Times

Editorial & Commercial Separation

The Empire Times maintains a strict separation between advertising and editorial operations. Advertisers have no influence over our news coverage, story selection, or editorial positions.

Advertising We Accept

Display advertising from recognised brands and businesses
Programmatic advertising through vetted networks
Clearly labelled sponsored content and native advertising
Newsletter sponsorships with full disclosure

Advertising We Do Not Accept

Ads for illegal products or services
Misleading, deceptive, or fraudulent advertising
Content that promotes hate speech or discrimination
Political campaign advertising
Ads that interfere with the user experience or editorial content

Labelling of Paid Content

All paid placements — including sponsored articles and native advertising — are clearly labelled as "Sponsored," "Advertisement," or "Paid Partnership" so readers can always distinguish commercial content from editorial content.
