Solution

Google penalizes intrusive interstitials that cover main content on mobile. Avoid: popups that cover the content immediately on page load, standalone interstitials before the main content, above-the-fold layouts that look like interstitials. Allowed: age verification, cookie consent (small), login walls for paywalled content.
