What should you do if your ad is disapproved for using a trademark in a restricted way?

• A. Remove the trademark from your ad so it can be re-reviewed and start running
• B. Increase your bid to bypass review
• C. Clone the ad into another campaign
• D. Continue running and wait for automatic re-approval

Answer: (A)

When a trademark is disapproved due to restricted use, the correct move is to edit the ad to remove the trademark and resubmit for review. This addresses the policy issue directly and lets Google re-check the ad quickly. Increasing bids, cloning the ad into another campaign, or waiting for automatic re-approval don’t change the disapproval status or policy compliance, so they won’t resolve the issue. If you do have permission to use the trademark, you can rephrase or provide evidence during the review, but the immediate, reliable fix is removing the trademark and submitting for re-review.
