Prior approval of an ad does not guarantee its continued acceptance; advertisers face the risk that a previously approved ad may be rejected at a later stage.
Interpretive note: The excerpt is a section heading only — 'Why some ads are rejected after they're approved' — with no substantive clause text provided.
