Direct definitionSecond recovery, third recovery, green status, and active ads are market shorthand for lifted restrictions, appeal history, or current advertising-permission status. They are not official Meta trust grades.
What this term usually means
- Second/third recovery usually means a seller claims two or three restriction removals or appeal recoveries.
- Green status/ads active usually describes a currently visible quality-page state or advertising capability.
- When these terms are screening inputs, return to the current page state and timestamp.
What this term cannot establish
- They cannot establish future survival or permanent ability to advertise.
- The same term can be defined differently by different sites.
- A seller claim cannot be treated directly as a verified fact.
How to verify it in practice
Industry shorthand can speed up discussion, but final decisions must return to the current page, actual relationship and explicit delivery scope.
- Check the account’s current page status
- Record the verification time
- Keep seller descriptions separate from current results
Why separate verification matters
Supplier names often compress the object, state, use, quality claim and support terms into one label. Checking each part reduces conflicting expectations.
