Therefore, if you are receiving said advertisements from this webpage – it means that when it was accessed, permission for their delivery was granted by selecting "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

We advise denying notification delivery from such sites (i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignoring these requests altogether.

In case of continuous unprompted redirects to questionable websites, inspect the browser and system for installed advertising-supported software (adware). If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
