Upon acceptance by Company of a properly completed Insertion Order, Company will place Advertiser’s Creative(s) on the Network platform for use by its Publishers to promote Advertiser’s Offers through each Campaign.
The Parties will execute a separate Insertion Order for each Campaign. Each Insertion Order will set forth, at a minimum, the Campaign start dates and times, any budget for the Campaign, a clear definition of the Action and any exemptions therefrom (for example, if a lead must meet certain criteria, such criteria must be expressly set forth), and the fees to be paid by Advertiser to Company.

Company’s sole obligation to Advertiser under this Agreement with respect to Ad(s) will be to place such Ad(s) on the internet, including placement of Ad(s) through the use of its Network. Accordingly, placement of Ad(s) will be in the discretion of Company and subject to the right of Company and/or any Publisher to reject any Advertisement. The Advertiser acknowledges that Company nor its Publishers are not responsible for the Creative content of the Ad(s) and/or any promises contained in the Ad(s).
This Agreement does not require Company to provide graphic or other advertising design services, or any other services relating to the content and appearance of Creative. This Agreement is instead designed and limited in scope and intended only to cover the placement, transmission, and promotion of electronic Ad(s) provided by Advertiser rather than the design or creation of such Advertisements. This Agreement likewise does not cover website development services, programming, or any other related service.
Advertiser acknowledges and agrees that Company is merely an exchange which facilitates relationships between Advertiser and Publishers. Company does not pre-screen Advertisements for inclusion on the Company Network and shall not be responsible for policing, monitoring, or editing any Creative or Advertisement for legal compliance, inappropriate content, or otherwise. Advertiser bears sole responsibility for all Creative provided by or approved by Advertiser.
Company shall use reasonably commercial efforts to make the Company Website available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, except for (a) planned downtime or (b) downtime caused by circumstances beyond Company’s reasonable control.

Advertiser agrees that it does not have, nor will it claim, any right, title, or interest in the Network, the associated tracking platform and any data, reports, information, or analyses arising out of such use (the “Network Data”), the Network Data, or any underlying technology, software, applications, data, methods of doing business, or any elements thereof, or any content provided on Company’s Website. Advertiser may only access the Company Website via web browser, email, or in a manner approved by Company. Advertiser shall not attempt in any way to alter, modify, eliminate, conceal, or otherwise render inoperable or ineffective the Company Website tags, source codes, links, pixels, modules, or other data provided by or obtained from Company that allows Company to measure Campaign performance and provide the Network. In addition, Advertiser acknowledges that all Network Data, including but not limited to non-public information, data, and reports received by Advertiser from Company as part of the Networks are proprietary to and owned by Company, even if Advertiser’s advertising activity contributed in some part to the Network Data. If instructed to do so by Company, Advertiser will immediately destroy and discontinue the use of any such Network Data and any other material owned by Company or its third-party Advertisers.

Advertiser Creative; Advertiser Website

License. Advertiser hereby grants to Company a worldwide, assignable, nonexclusive, and revocable, as stated herein, license to use, reproduce, publicly and digitally display, and perform, transmit, and broadcast Advertiser’s name, logos, trademarks, trade names, service marks, copyrights, URLs, slogans, and all other intellectual property rights in order to display, market, promote, and publicize all Ads and Campaigns, including all Creative. Such license shall terminate immediately upon termination of all IOs then in effect.
Creative. At least forty-eight (48) hours prior to a Campaign start date, Advertiser shall provide Creative materials for such Ad and/or Campaign, including without limitation product or service descriptions, graphics, images, logos, and text. Advertiser shall submit changes to or cancellations of Creative materials at least ten (10) days prior to the requested change or cancellation date.
Email Creative. With respect to any email Campaigns (and to the extent requirements are not addressed in the relevant IO), Advertiser will provide to Company, as part of the Creative, a list of acceptable subject lines and “friendly from” names that are in compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 (“CAN-SPAM”), California’s Anti-Spam Act, Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code §§ 17529 et seq. (“California’s Anti-Spam Act”), and any other applicable anti-spam laws.
Advertiser Website. Advertiser shall use best efforts to make the Advertiser Website(s) available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to ensure that User Actions are processed on a timely basis. Advertiser shall notify Company at least one (1) week prior to any scheduled maintenance or downtime so that Company has adequate time to notify Publishers who are running the applicable Ads and/or Campaigns.
Affiliate Terms on Advertiser Website Not Binding. IN THE EVENT THAT COMPANY IS REQUIRED TO AGREE TO ADDITIONAL TERMS WHEN USING ADVERTISER’S WEBSITE, THE PARTIES HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT SUCH AGREEMENT IS INCONSEQUENTIAL AND IN NO WAY BINDING AND THAT IT IS A RESULT OF A TECHNICAL REQUIREMENT (THAT CANNOT BE ALTERED) TO VIEW STATISTICS/RECORDS OR ACCESS CREATIVE MATERIALS. THEREFORE, ANY SUCH TERMS THAT APPEAR ON ADVERTISER’S WEBSITE ARE TO BE DISREGARDED AND DEEMED NON-EFFECTIVE AND SHALL BE EXPLICITLY SUPERSEDED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

Advertising Restrictions and Conditions

Company expressly reserves the right to:

refuse any advertising request or cancel any Ad that does not completely conform to every material detail, instruction, method, and guideline set forth in the Insertion Order;
refuse any Ad that does not arrive 48 hours prior to the Campaign start date;
refuse or cancel the use of any Ad that it deems, in its sole and absolute discretion, inappropriate for any reason or no reason;
refuse at any time to market, display, perform, copy, or transmit and promote the Ad(s) that Company believes, in its sole and absolute discretion is an invasion of privacy, is degrading, libelous, unlawful, profane, obscene, pornographic, tends to ridicule or embarrass, is in bad taste, or which in its reasonable discretion is an infringement on a trademark, trade name, or copyright belonging to others;
refuse any Ad request or cancel any Ad that is or can be hosted by any directly or indirectly competitive network;
refuse or cancel any Ad which redirects traffic to a website other than the Advertiser Website specifically identified in the Insertion Order; and
refuse or cancel any Ad which on its face asks Users to take advantage of other or additional offers or Ads not specifically identified in the Insertion Order.

Any Ad rejected by Company may be replaced by Advertiser subject to the reservation of right of Section 4(a); provided that any such replacement material must be in writing and accompanied by appropriate material identifying the Ad that it is to replace. Company will notify Advertiser of the rejection of any Ad and will have no liability to Advertiser for any such rejection. Further, Company will have no liability to Advertiser for failure to place any Ad on any particular portion of the Company Network.
Advertiser agrees to pursue any claims against Publishers for violation of Company’s CAN-SPAM compliance policies against such Publishers directly and not against Company. Advertiser will timely notify Company of any such claim so that Company may terminate the breaching Publisher.

Auditing and Tracking of Campaigns

Tracking by Company. Advertiser acknowledges that Company’s tracking system will serve as the verifiable log of responses from computing billing amounts. Advertiser will provide Company with any Advertiser ID, Order ID, URL, and Origin ID necessary for Company to track all Actions and determine the amounts owed by Advertiser to Company under this Agreement.
No Offsets. Unless otherwise provided in the Insertion Order, no offsets or chargebacks may be taken for any non-viable or duplicate leads or other Actions. Absent specific criteria in the Insertion Order, Company will determine in its reasonable discretion what constitutes a non-viable lead or other Action. Without limiting the breadth of the foregoing, non-viable leads will include, but not be limited to, leads with incomplete or fraudulent contact information (i.e., a lead which does not include an e-mail address, phone number, or physical address). Specific fields required by the Advertiser must be detailed on the Insertion Order.
Payment Calculations. Advertiser acknowledges that Company will have sole and absolute responsibility for calculation of the Units that comply with the terms of the Insertion Order. In the event that Advertiser disagrees with any such determination, it must send Company a written request for review by Advertiser within seven (7) days of billing. Company will then provide Advertiser with a reviewed audit of the numbers. In the event that Advertiser further disagrees with the reviewed audit numbers, Advertiser has the right, at its expense and for the sole purpose of ensuring compliance with the Agreement, to conduct its own reasonable audit of Company’s records of Units delivered. Any such audit may be conducted upon seven (7) business days prior written notice, provided that such audits will not be made more frequently than once every six months. Company will maintain commercially reasonable records of Units delivered during the term of the Agreement and for one (1) year following termination of the Agreement.
Access to Offer Tracking. Advertiser will allow Company online access to live, real- time statistics regarding performance of the Campaign and Offer and will provide access to records as they become available that will allow Company to monitor the volume of Actions it has generated. Advertiser agrees to keep its Advertiser Website running and functional, allowing for Actions to be processed. All such records provided by Advertiser will be the sole property of Advertiser.
Tracking Lock; Disputes. The number of Actions accrued during a given calendar month will be locked ten (10) days after the close of said month (the “Tracking Lock Date”). Accordingly, all requests for reversals/refunds must be accompanied by a lead detail report containing no less than the Publisher ID, IP, time stamp and reasons for return and submitted to Company prior to the Tracking Lock Date. No refunds shall be granted thereafter unless mutually agreed-upon by the Parties.
Overages. Unless otherwise provided in the Insertion Order, Advertiser agrees to pay for any over delivery of Actions ordered under the terms of this Agreement of an amount no greater than a ten percent (10%) over delivery.

Deposit; Payments

Payment Schedule. Unless otherwise stated in the Insertion Order, Advertiser will pay Company for Actions delivered within fifteen (15) days of the date Advertiser receives an invoice or tracking statement from Company. Payment shall be made in U.S. Dollars ($US). If Company does not receive a written notification of a disputed bill, with rationale and support specifically set forth therein, within seven (7) days from the date the invoice was sent to Advertiser, the invoice will be deemed valid and payable and may not thereafter be disputed. Advertiser agrees that this provision is reasonable, and that Company will rely upon Advertiser’s agreement to this provision in making payments to Publishers in connection with the Advertiser’s Campaigns.
Payment Objections. NOT WITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, ONCE THE SEVENTY-TWO (72) HOUR PERIOD TO DISPUTE A PAYMENT OBLIGATION HAS EXPIRED, ADVERTISER MAY NOT WITHHOLD MONTHLY PAYMENT OR ANY OTHER AMOUNT DUE TO COMPANY BY REASON OF FRAUD OR OTHER ALLEGED WRONGDOING, TRAFFIC QUALITY, NON-VIABLE LEADS OR OTHER ACTIONS, LATE PAYMENTS, CREDIT CARD REFUSALS, EXPIRATIONS, CHARGEBACKS, AND ANY AND ALL OTHER DISPUTES IN CONNECTION WITH USER ACTIONS. IN NO EVENT SHALL COMPANY BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUES, OR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO ANY CREDIT CARD REFUNDS, PENALTIES, FEES, CHARGEBACK COSTS, OR THE LIKE.
Penalty for Nonpayment. In the event Advertiser fails to pay the full amount of an invoice within fifteen (15) days after payment is due, Company, in its sole discretion, may remove the Advertisement or Creative from the internet and/or terminate this Agreement without notice to the Advertiser. In such instance, all outstanding charges shall bear interest at a rate of 1.5% per month or the maximum interest rate permitted under applicable law, whichever is less. Advertiser agrees that if Advertiser does not pay within fifteen (15) days after payment is due, Company, or its Publishers, may seek to satisfy Advertiser’s Payment Obligation and to collect such payment. Advertiser further agrees to pay all costs of collection (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Company, or its Publishers, in connection with its enforcement of any Insertion Order.

Term, Termination, Payment of Minimum Contract Price

Term; Automatic Renewal. This Agreement shall begin on the execution date of the first Insertion Order and shall remain in effect until the expiration or termination of all Insertion Orders hereunder.
Either Party may terminate the Terms, any Insertion Order, or both, at any time, for no reason or for any reason, upon seven (7) days written notice to the other Party. Company reserves the right to terminate this Agreement immediately, in its sole discretion, in the event of nonpayment by Advertiser or if Company determines that the Campaign is not generating sufficient response to continue to offer it to the Network. Further, either party may terminate the Terms, any Insertion Order or both, immediately by delivering written notice to the other Party upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) any material breach occurs and is not cured within seven (7) days of receipt of notice of the breach; (ii) a receiver is appointed for either Party or its property; (iii) either Party makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (iv) either Party commences, or has commenced against it, proceedings under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or debtor’s relief law, if such proceedings are not dismissed within 60 days; or (v) either Party is liquidating, dissolving, or ceasing to do business in the ordinary course.
Effect of Termination; Survival. Any termination of this Agreement automatically terminates all rights and licenses granted to Advertiser under this Agreement, including all rights to use the Company Site and Service. Subsequent to termination, Company reserves the right to exercise whatever means it deems necessary to prevent Advertiser’s unauthorized use of the Company Site and Service, including without limitation technological barriers such as IP blocking and direct contact with Advertiser’s internet Service Provider. Upon termination, all rights and obligations under this Agreement will terminate, except that Sections 3(e), 6, 7(c), 8(b), and 9-17, together with any Payment Obligations incurred prior to the effective date of termination, shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Suppression Lists. Advertiser represents and warrants that it is familiar with CAN-SPAM, California’s Anti-Spam Act, and the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, 47 U.S.C. §§ 227 et seq. (“TCPA”), as amended from time to time, and acknowledges that it is the Advertiser’s sole responsibility to ensure that it is operating pursuant to the CAN-SPAM Act, the California Anti-Spam Act, the TCPA, and all related legislation. To the extent that Advertiser (or, as applicable, Advertiser’s client) receives via email, website, text message, or other means, including directly from Company, an “unsubscribe” or “opt-out” request regarding any Ad and/or Campaign, Advertiser shall provide Company a list of such “unsubscribe” and “opt-out” (hereinafter, the “Suppression List”), which will be passed on to Publishers who participate in the Campaign.

The Suppression List must be updated every seven (7) days or sooner; and
Advertiser must respond to all suppression abuse claims within forty-eight (48) hours, including holidays and weekends;

If the above requirements are not met, Company will:

notify Publisher to suspend traffic to the campaign; and
invoice Advertiser for average estimated User revenues (based on the previous thirty-six (36) hours) lost for campaign downtime.
Company reserves the right to terminate this Agreement and its relationship with Advertiser if Advertiser fails to meet Suppression List requirements and/or CAN-SPAM and/or California Anti-Spam Act and/or TCPA compliance.
COMPANY DISCLAIMS, AND ADVERTISER AGREES TO ASSUME, ALL RESPONSIBILITY AND LIABILITY FOR: (A) ADVERTISER’S FAILURE TO TIMELY PROVIDE COMPANY WITH A SUPPRESSION LIST; (B) ANY INACCURATE OR INCOMPLETE SUPPRESSION LIST PROVIDED BY ADVERTISER; (C) ANY FAILURE ON BEHALF OF A PUBLISHER TO SCRUB ITS DATABASE AGAINST ADVERTISER’S SUPPRESSION LIST; OR (D) ANY VIOLATIONS OF ADVERTISER’S PRIVACY POLICY AS A RESULT OF COMPANY’S DELIVERY OF THE SUPPRESSION LIST TO PUBLISHERS.
