Can I place AdMob banner in a recycler view?. My application is all about listing news from various sources under different category(Say Politics, sports, movies..etc), I have designed app using ViewPager for the category and recycler view for listing the news, I have placed AdMob banner ads inside the recyclerview in a periodical index for example at 5,10,15,20... positions of a recycler view (I have referred https://github.com/googlesamples/android-ads/tree/master/advanced/BannerRecyclerViewExample/app/src/main/java/com/google/android/gms/example/bannerrecyclerviewexample) . Also, I am pausing the ads if the fragment (NewsListingFragment of a News Category) is invisible and resuming if the fragment is visible

@Override
public void setUserVisibleHint(boolean isVisibleToUser) {
    super.setUserVisibleHint(isVisibleToUser);
    boolean isAdapterNull=mAdapter==null|| (mAdapter != null && mAdapter.getItemCount() <= 0);

    if (isVisibleToUser && isAdded()&&isAdapterNull ) {
        fetchNews(0);
    }
    if(mAdapter!=null) {
        if (isVisibleToUser) {
            resumeAds(mAdapter.getItemWithAds());
        } else {
            pauseAds(mAdapter.getItemWithAds());
        }
    }
}

Does It violate any program policy?
