Some Program features are identified as “Beta,” “Ad Experiment,” or as otherwise unsupported or confidential (collectively, “Beta Features”). Customer may not disclose any information from Beta Features or the terms or existence of any non-public Beta Features.
- Policies. Customer is solely responsible for its use of the Programs (e.g., access to and use of Program accounts and safeguarding usernames and passwords) (“Use”). Program Use is subject to applicable Infolinks policies and all applicable Partner policies made available by Infolinks to Customer (in each case, as modified from time to time, “Policies”). In connection with the Program, Infolinks will comply with the Infolinks Privacy Policy. Customer authorizes Infolinks to modify Ads as described in Policies. Customer will not, and will not authorize any third party to, (i) generate automated, fraudulent or otherwise invalid impressions, inquiries, clicks or conversions, (ii) conceal conversions for Programs where they are required to be disclosed or (iii) use any automated means or form of scraping or data extraction to access, query or otherwise collect Infolinks advertising related information from any Property except as expressly permitted by Infolinks. Customer will direct communications regarding Ads on Partner Properties under these Terms only to Infolinks.
- Ad Serving. (a) Customer will not provide Ads containing spyware, adult, obscene, pornographic, defamatory, libelous, infringing, abusive, misleading, deceptive or illegal content, that promotes hate or discrimination, facilitates the sale of firearms or illegal drugs, or that participates or encourages participation in illegal activities, “scareware” misleading users to believe they have problems with their computer, malware or any other malicious code or knowingly breach or circumvent any Program security measure. (b) Customer may utilize an Ad server solely for serving or tracking Ads under Programs that permit third party Ad serving and only if the Ad server has been authorized by Infolinks to participate in the Program, and in any event billing will be done based on Infolinks records.
- Online Gambling. Infolinks restricts the promotion of the following gambling-related content:
- Offline and online gambling
- Online gambling-related information
- Online games played for money or prizes
- Online casino-based games, regardless of whether money is exchangedWhen promoting gambling-related content, you need to do the following:
- Comply with applicable laws and industry standards for any location that your campaign targets.
- Meet local licensing requirements for all gambling-related products and services that you’re promoting.
- Clearly display information on your landing page about responsible gambling.
- Ensure that you don’t target minors.Additionally, you must receive pre-authorization from Infolinks before promoting any online gambling/gaming-related content. If the country you’d like to target is not listed in Infolinks’ country restrictions list, AdShop can’t promote restricted gambling content there.
- Ad Cancellation. Unless a Policy, the Program user interface or an agreement referencing these Terms (an “IO”) provides otherwise, either party may cancel any Ad at any time before the earlier of Ad auction or placement, but if Customer cancels an Ad after a commitment date provided by Infolinks (e.g., a reservation-based campaign), then Customer is responsible for any cancellation fees communicated by Infolinks to Customer (if any) and the Ad may still be published. Customer remains obligated to pay all charges resulting from served Ads (e.g., fees based on conversion). Customer must effect cancellation of Ads (i) online through Customer’s account if the functionality is available, (ii) if this functionality is not available, with notice to Infolinks via email to Customer’s account representative or (iii) if Customer does not have an account representative, with notice to Infolinks via email to adshop.support@infolinks.com (collectively, the “Ad Cancellation Process”). Customer will not be relieved of any payment obligations for Creative not submitted or submitted by Customer after the due date provided by Infolinks. Infolinks will not be bound by a Customer provided IO.
- Warranty and Rights. Customer warrants that (a) it holds, and hereby grants Infolinks, its affiliates and Partners, the rights in Creative, Destinations and Targets for Infolinks, its affiliates and Partners to operate the Programs and (b) all information and authorizations provided by Customer are complete, correct and current. Customer authorizes Infolinks and its affiliates to automate retrieval and analysis of Destinations for the purposes of the Programs. Customer warrants that it is authorized to act on behalf of, and has bound to these Terms, third parties, if any, for which Customer advertises in connection with these Terms (“Advertiser”). If for any reason Customer has not bound an Advertiser to these Terms, Customer will be liable for performing any obligation that the Advertiser would have if it had been bound to these Terms. Customer will provide Advertiser with reporting data as frequently as existing reporting from Customer to Advertiser, but no less than on a monthly basis, that discloses absolute dollars spent on Infolinks and performance (at a minimum cost, clicks and impressions of users on the account of that Advertiser) in a reasonably prominent location. Infolinks may, upon request of an Advertiser, share Advertiser-specific information with Advertiser. If Customer is using a Program on its own behalf to advertise and not on behalf of an Advertiser, for that use Customer will be deemed to be both Customer and Advertiser.
- Make Goods. For reservation-based Display Ads, Infolinks will deliver any agreed upon aggregate number of Display Ads by the end of the campaign, provided that if Infolinks fails to do so, then Customer’s sole remedy is to make a claim within three (3) months after the end date of the campaign (“Claim Period”). If Infolinks confirms the accuracy of the claim, then Infolinks will not charge Customer for the undelivered Display Ads or, if Customer has already paid, at Infolinks’s reasonable discretion, Infolinks will provide for (i) advertising credits, which must be used within six (6) months from the date which they were approved (“Use By Date”), (ii) later placement of the Display Ads in a position Infolinks deems comparable or (iii) an extension of the term of the campaign. Infolinks cannot assure that any auction-based Ads will be delivered and therefore make-goods do not apply to auction-based Ads.
- Payment. Customer will pay all charges incurred in connection with the Program, using pre-paid amounts via credit card or paypal, in increments as determined by Infolinks, or as otherwise approved by Infolinks, within a commercially reasonable time period specified by Infolinks (e.g., in the Program user interface or IO). Late payments bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less). Charges are exclusive of taxes. Customer will pay (i) all taxes and other government charges and (ii) reasonable expenses and attorneys’ fees Infolinks incurs in collecting late payments. Charges are solely based on Infolinks’s measurements for the Programs and the applicable billing metrics (e.g., clicks or impressions). No party may offset any payment due under these Terms against any other payment to be made under these Terms. Infolinks may, in its sole discretion, extend, revise or revoke credit at any time. Infolinks is not obligated to deliver any Ads in excess of any credit limit. If Infolinks does not deliver Ads to the selected Targets, then Customer’s sole remedy is to make a claim for advertising credits within the Claim Period, after which Infolinks will issue the credits following claim validation which must be used by the Use By Date. Customer understands that third parties may generate impressions or clicks on Customer’s Ads for prohibited or improper purposes and that its sole remedy is to make a claim for advertising credits within the Claim Period, after which Infolinks will issue the credits following claim validation which must be used by the Use By Date. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, (A) ADVERTISER AND CUSTOMER WAIVE ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO ANY PROGRAM CHARGES UNLESS A CLAIM IS MADE WITHIN THE CLAIM PERIOD AND (B) THE ISSUANCE OF ADVERTISING CREDITS (IF ANY) IS AT INFOLINKS’S REASONABLE DISCRETION AND IF ISSUED, MUST BE USED BY THE USE BY DATE.

- Indemnification. Customer will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Infolinks, its Partners, agents, affiliates, and licensors from any third party claim or liability arising out of or related to Targets, Creative, Destinations, Services, Use and breach of these Terms by Customer. Partners are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section.
