Disabling Ads in the Widget for Sensitive Content

If you do not want the |related| widget to display ads on certain articles, a dedicated control is available for this purpose.

This can be indicated on the given page using a meta tag. If this meta information is present in the page source, the widget will not return ads and will also not display its own sponsored articles among the recommendations.

The meta tag to use is:

<meta name="relatedwidget" content="noads">

It is recommended to place this meta tag in the HTML code of the given article, within the section.

If you use a different, site-specific technical signal for this purpose, please contact us about it, and we will consider supporting it on a case-by-case basis. In the long term, however, we recommend using the explicit meta tag above in all cases, as it provides a more stable and transparent form of control.
