 Please Note: It is the policy of SWNA not to accept any classified ad where the only contact information is an account hosted by webmail providers like hotmail, yahoo, or gmail, as it is impossible to prove the authenticity and origin point of the email. Detailed company information must be provided either in the classified ad or to SWNA head office so that we have proof the person contacting us is legitimate, and the business in question is also legitimate. This policy is in effect to protect the readers of Saskatchewan Weekly Newspapers from the possibility of fraudulent claims and identity theft.

4. The Association expressly reserves the right to edit, categorize, classify, revise, reject, omit, discontinue or to decline any advertisement in the sole discretion of the Association. The intent of the Association is to uphold the highest standards of accuracy, clarity and legality, and therefore the Association may, in its sole discretion, contact the advertiser for clarification of any advertisement that compromises this intent.

5. The Association, and any participating member newspapers, expressly reserves the right to reject any advertisement which does not comply with advertising standards, which are set in the sole discretion of the Association and the participating member newspapers, and may be amended from time to time without notice. Failure to comply with advertising standards may include, without limitation, the following:

1. Any advertisement that requests money prior to delivery of a product or service.

2. Any advertisement that requests money in exchange for information about a product or service.
