## [Trademark Policy for Lead Generators: Google's New Rules](https://www.brandverity.com/blog/trademark-policy-for-lead-generators-googles-new-rules)

Recently, Google updated their [trademark guidelines](https://support.google.com/adwordspolicy/answer/186124) to restrict the use of trademarks by lead generators.

That’s why I always try to jot down some notes at the end of each day—just to keep reminders about what I learned and what happened over the course of the day.
