Webkinz Adds New Feature to MY PETS.
Look on the Things to Do List for the new ME AND MY PETS button. Webkinz has added a new TAB called OPTIONS. Check it out. You can now turn off all ads that don’t have to do with Ganz. They will remain turned off for 30 days. Parents have the option of turning off all ads other than Ganz/Webkinz related ads. By clicking on the Orange square you will shut off unwanted third-party ads.
Ganz Ad Policy:
We at Ganz fully understand your concerns about advertising. Ganz is committed to being highly responsible in our approach to advertising and the advertisers we allow on the site. Our approach is the following:
1) All advertisers must pass our standards for quality, family-friendly products. We will only allow “mom-approved” brands and products - such as milk, soup, toothpaste, healthy snacks - and wholesome family entertainment, such as kids’ movies. We will not allow junk food, products that are violent nor brands and/or products that are not age-appropriate.
2) All advertising content must be approved by Ganz before appearing on Webkinz. We do not use a second-party advertising distributor, so no inappropriate ad will ever “slip by”.
3) We currently do not allow linking off of Webkinz.com Members must choose to type any third-party URL on their own.
4) Prizes that can be won from advertising initiatives will not be branded. Brands will not enter into your child’s pet’s world.
5) We will limit the amount of third-party advertising that appears on our site. The majority of advertising space will remain dedicated to Webkinz products and features and positive life style messaging.
Ganz is committed to maintaining and following these policies, and hope that we have alleviated any concerns you may have.
