# Ethical Ads
A lot of Sphinx documentation is hosted on [ReadTheDocs], who provide free docs
hosting for open source projects. [Ethical Ads] is a privacy-respecting ad
network built by ReadTheDocs, and is one of the contributors to their
sustainability.
Adding this component to your page in the correct places, helps you make sure
that when ReadTheDocs tries to show ethical ads in documentation built with your
theme, they are well integrated with it and show up where you expect them to be
visible.
## Usage
```jinja
{% include "components/ethical-ads.html" %}
```
This will add an empty `div` tag, which would be populated by ReadTheDocs.
It is also expected that the page will [manually load ads]. This is done for
pages hosted by ReadTheDocs automatically.
## Configurability
There are 3 values that can be provided via the html-context, which correspond
to the following configuration attributes on the ethical ad `div`:
- `ethical_ad_class`: maps to `class`
- `ethical_ad_type`: maps to `data-ea-type`
- `ethical_ad_publisher`: maps to `data-ea-publisher`
If these values are not set, they will take reasonable values for
ReadTheDocs-based documentation.
The `div` for the ad is only included on the page if the documentation is being
built on ReadTheDocs or `ethical_ad_publisher` is set.
```{tip}
If you need additional control/configuration, it is recommended to
include the this component as shown here, and to override the
`components/ethical-ads.html` file in your theme.
