# Is Google Ad Library / Ad Transparency data legal to use?

Ad Transparency exists so the public can inspect ads that ran on Google surfaces. Social Fetch returns that publicly visible research data. You are still responsible for how you use it under Google's terms, applicable law, and your own compliance review. We do not give legal advice.
