The challenge

Koriderm's Google Ads account was suspended due to policy violations originating from their Merchant Center feed. The suspension cited "misleading claims" and "prohibited content" but didn't specify which products or pages. With 214 SKUs across multiple skincare categories, manually auditing every product page for policy compliance would take weeks. Their $18,500/month in Google Ads revenue was frozen.

The solution

The audit flagged 6 product pages that contained before/after photos (prohibited in healthcare/beauty ads), 11 pages with unsubstantiated claims like "clinically proven" without citation, and 3 pages referencing public figures endorsing the products without proper authorization. FeedShield's policy checker mapped each violation to the specific Google Ads policy section, giving the team a clear fix list ordered by severity.

The results

Koriderm removed the prohibited content, replaced unsubstantiated claims with factual descriptions, and removed unauthorized endorsements. The Ads suspension was lifted after the second review cycle. All 214 products are now approved with ongoing monitoring catching policy-sensitive language before it goes live.
