Google Ads account suspension is one of the most painful situations for any advertiser, especially when the suspension reason is Circumventing Systems.
For those who don’t know, Circumventing Systems is one of the toughest and most serious Google Ads suspension errors. In many cases, advertisers do not even understand why their account was suspended, and they keep submitting basic appeals without properly reviewing the real issue.
In this case study, I’m going to share how we helped a client from the travel industry recover their Google Ads account after it was suspended for Circumventing Systems.
What Is Circumventing Systems in Google Ads?
Circumventing Systems is a Google Ads policy violation where Google believes that an advertiser is trying to bypass or interfere with Google’s advertising systems, policies, or review process.
This can happen due to several reasons, such as:
- Using multiple suspended Google Ads accounts
- Creating new accounts after previous suspensions
- Website compliance issues
- Misleading business information
- Policy violations on landing pages
- Cloaking, redirects, or suspicious technical behavior
- Incomplete business verification
- Repeated policy violations
- Google algorithm or human review errors
The difficult part is that sometimes advertisers believe they are doing everything correctly, but their website or account still does not meet Google’s policy requirements.
Client Background: Travel Industry Google Ads Suspension
In this case, the client was from the travel industry.
When the case came to us, the Google Ads account was already suspended for Circumventing Systems. The client wanted to run ads, but due to the suspension, their campaigns were stopped.
Travel is already a sensitive industry in Google Ads because advertisers may need proper disclaimers, transparent business information, clear policies, and strong website compliance.
So, the first step was not to submit a quick appeal. The first step was to investigate the full account and website.
Our 160+ Step Google Ads Suspension Checklist
At our company, we have developed a 160+ step Google Ads suspension checklist over time.
This checklist helps us review different areas of a suspended account, including:
- Google Ads account history
- Previous suspensions
- Billing profile issues
- Website compliance
- Business information
- Contact details
- Privacy policy
- Terms and conditions
- Refund or cancellation policy
- Disclaimers
- Landing page transparency
- Competitor compliance
- Google Ads policy clauses
- Industry-specific requirements
Many advertisers make the mistake of submitting an appeal without fixing the website or without understanding the policy violation. This is one of the reasons why their appeals keep getting rejected.
Why Google Ads Accounts Get Suspended
There can be multiple reasons behind a Google Ads suspension.
Sometimes the advertiser has used multiple suspended accounts in the past. Sometimes the payment profile has issues. Sometimes the website does not comply with Google policies. And sometimes, Google’s automated system may mistakenly suspend an account.
Yes, Google’s algorithm can make mistakes.
But when that happens, you still need to prepare a strong appeal with proper explanation, evidence, and policy references.
Competitor and Policy Analysis
One important part of our process is competitor analysis.
We reviewed competitors in the same industry and studied:
- What type of disclaimers they were using
- How their privacy policy was written
- What terms of service they had
- What business information they displayed
- What landing page structure they followed
- What policy clauses allowed them to run ads
After reviewing the competitors, we matched the client’s website against Google’s policy requirements and industry standards.
This is where most people fail. They only say, “My website is fine,” but they do not explain to Google why the website is compliant.
Submitting a Detailed Google Ads Appeal
After completing the review and making the required checks, we submitted a detailed appeal.
This was not a simple one-line appeal.
Our appeal included:
- Account review details
- Website compliance explanation
- Competitor comparison
- Policy clause references
- Business transparency points
- Explanation for the review team
- Clarification on why the account should be reinstated
A strong Google Ads suspension appeal should educate the review team and clearly explain why the account complies with Google policies.
The Result: Circumventing Systems Appeal Successful
After submitting the appeal, Google reviewed the account.
The result was successful.
Google confirmed that the appeal was approved and the account was unsuspended. As long as there were no other existing violations, the ads could resume.
This was another successful Google Ads suspension recovery case study where a Circumventing Systems suspension was fixed.
Account Unsuspended but Verification Still Required
After the account was unsuspended, the advertiser still had to complete advertiser verification.
This is important to understand.
Sometimes, even after a suspension is removed, Google may still require:
- Advertiser verification
- Business operation verification
- Billing verification
- Identity verification
- Documentation
- Additional compliance checks
In this case, the account also had a daily spending limit. Google often applies daily spending limits, especially to new advertisers or accounts under review. In some cases, the limit can be very low in the beginning.
This is part of Google’s quality control and advertiser verification process.
Why You Should Not Submit Random Appeals
If your Google Ads account is suspended, do not keep submitting random appeals.
Every rejected appeal can make the case more complicated.
Before submitting an appeal, you should review:
- Your website
- Your Google Ads account
- Your billing profile
- Your business model
- Your previous account history
- Your landing pages
- Your policies and disclaimers
- Google’s exact suspension reason
A proper appeal should be submitted only after checking and fixing the possible compliance issues.
