Tobacco, nicotine and vapes on other AI channels
The same category is treated differently on each channel. A rule on one channel doesn’t apply to the others.
| Channel | Treatment | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| ChatGPT | Not allowed | Not allowed.[2] |
| Google AI (this page) | Not allowed | Not allowed.[1] |
| Gravity | Allowed with conditions | Explicit Gravity authorization.[3] |
“No category rule” means the provider has no rule for this category; its general policies still apply.
How Admux screens it
Admux screens each campaign against the rules of every channel you select, before anything is submitted. Each channel is checked on its own, so a rule on one channel never blocks the others.
For Google AI, a tobacco, nicotine and vape products campaign isn’t submitted. You can still run it on Gravity, where tobacco, nicotine and vape products is allowed with conditions.
