By default, when viewers click a text or image overlay in an ad, a webpage opens. You can remove the interactivity from elements in your ad if you do not want viewers to interact with that content.

A non-interactive overlay functions as dead space on your ad. Any clicks on the overlay are not recorded and do not appear in reporting.
