Web: "Not Secure" website when an ad plays.

Hello! Whenever a Pandora ad plays, usually for a few minutes of free music streaming, Pandora goes from a perfectly secure site to a "Not Secure" site. I'll try and attach a screenshot if I get a reply.

Hi @GreatSmokiesTN

Welcome to community!

Happy to take a look. Feel free to share a screenshot directly here on community. This is best done through a web or mobile browser. You won't be able to share a screenshot through the email notification you may receive.

When visiting Pandora on web browser, you'll want to be sure you're visiting https://www.pandora.com/.

Have you noticed if it's the same ad, or different ads. If it's the same ad, could you tell me more about it, is it for a product or service?

It seems to be the ad that plays whenever you want to play music for free for a while, the "Pandora Premium" one. The not secure notification normally happens midway through the ad.Both of these screenshots show Pandora but one is before the ad and one is after.
