What are “product shots”? • Real photos of products in real situaKons (e.g., the can of Red Bull on the dashboard)
• Images of product shots created in a studio or superimposed on alternate backgrounds (e.g., the three cans of Red Bull with the white background)
• Photo of a product where the image is zoomed in just to promote the logo or brand or is not a clear product shot must meet the 20% rule

How are we enforcing? • We have created a new grid-‐based text detecKon tool that
is the standard for determining the percentage of text that appears in any image. This tool should ensure consistent and objecKve enforcement of the policy.
• The tool is a 5x5 grid with a total of 25 boxes (see below). To meet the 20% test, text may appear in a maximum of five boxes (5/25 = 20%). If the image has text in six or more boxes, it is not eligible for an ad in News Feed.
• In the following image examples with text, we’ve included a screenshot of the tool with the appropriate number of boxes selected to help you gauge our review system.
