and/or "Publisher") shall agree to the following
terms and conditions for the receipt of advertising materials
("Creative") from
Advertisers and for display of same on Publisher websites
("Zones"). This includes the serving, tracking
and reporting of each Campaign made on the AdJungle Network
(the "Network")
to Publisher Websites ("Websites").
- USE POLICY
a) Membership: Membership
in the AdJungle Network is subject to approval of
AdJungle. AdJungle reserves the right to refuse
service to any new or existing Publisher, in its sole discretion,
with or without cause. AdJungle reserves
the right to withhold approval of membership in the AdJungle
Network based on Website primary language. AdJungle
reserves the right, in its sole discretion and without liability,
to reject, omit or exclude any Member or
Website for any reason at any time, with or without notice
to the Member and regardless of whether such Member
or Website was previously accepted.
b) Representation: Member
represents and warrants that: (1) it is the owner or is licensed
to use the entire contents and subject matter contained in
the Website or Creative; (2) the Website or Creative is free
of any "worm", "virus" or
other device that could impair or injure any person or entity;
(3) the Website or Creative does not violate any law or regulation
governing false or deceptive advertising, sweepstakes, gambling,
comparative advertising, or trade disparagement; (4) the
Website or Creative does not contain any misrepresentation,
or content that is defamatory or violates any rights of privacy
or publicity; (5) Member is generally familiar with the nature
of the Internet and will comply with all laws and regulations
that may apply; and (6) the Website or Creative does not
and will not infringe any copyright, trademark, patent or
other proprietary right. Member grants AdJungle the right
and license to transmit the Creative to the Network and the
Website.
c) Termination: AdJungle
reserves the right to terminate any Member's relationship
with the AdJungle Network at any time, with or without
cause. Termination notice may be provided via email or any
other public means and will be effective immediately. Upon
receipt of such termination notice, Member agrees to immediately
remove from his/her website AdJungle's HTML code for serving
Creative from AdJungle. Publisher will be paid, in the
next scheduled payment cycle, all legitimate earnings due
up to the time of termination. Upon termination, and in the
event that blatant fraudulent activities have been documented
in the AdJungle server logs, all ties to referrals will be
permanently severed and Publisher will not receive fraudulently
obtained earnings.
d) Content: AdJungle
reserves the absolute right to refuse to affiliate with any
Member. AdJungle does not
accept Websites that engage in, promote or facilitate illegal
or legally questionable activities such as pirating and hacking.
This Agreement is voidable by AdJungle immediately
if Member fails to disclose, conceals or misrepresents
itself in any way. In addition, AdJungle may in its complete
discretion refuse to serve any Website that it deems appropriate.
e) Traffic: AdJungle
may not allow direct sales of advertising on Publisher's
Zone should
the number of Impressions delivered by Publisher total less
than 700 for any seven (7) consecutive calendar day period.
AdJungle reserves the right to change the minimum traffic
levels at any time in response to market pressures.
f) Defaults: A Zone may
not be 100% sold with direct placement ads through a Publisher's
Ad Card. AdJungle provides free Publisher-defined default
ads expressly for this reason. Publisher-defined default
ads must adhere to the content guidelines outlined for all
AdJungle Advertisers. Publishers found using default ads
that violate the content restrictions of this agreement will
be removed from the network. Publishers are able to fill
eight (8) of ten (10) slots in each Zone with Publisher-defined
ads. If Publisher chooses not to specify a Publisher-defined
default ad in any slot, AdJungle will display AdJungle Default
ads on Publisher's website when paid advertising is unavailable
for that slot. AdJungle may display AdJungle Default ads
on any Publisher's website when technical difficulties require
it. AdJungle Default ads may not be paid advertising. AdJungle
will attempt to fill AdJungle Default ads with revenue generating
advertising in order to maximize earnings from AdJungle Default
ads. Under no circumstances does AdJungle guarantee to provide
any percent fill of paid advertising to a website.
g) Placement: No member
will place ads on blank pages, on pages with no content,
on top of one another, on non-approved Websites, on pages
that automatically refresh, or in such a fashion that may
be deceptive to the visitor. Creative cannot be placed in
email messages. All Creative must be placed in such a manner
that a majority of visitors will notice the Creative.
h) Fraud and Deception: AdJungle
audits every Publisher's traffic on a daily basis. Publishers
that produce or commit fraudulent activities, including false
clicks, false impressions, and incentivised clicks, will
have their account permanently removed from our network
and will not be compensated for fraudulent traffic. Additionally,
AdJungle reserves the right to register fraudulent Publishers
in a global ad network fraud database, for usage by other
ad networks. We have several fraud mechanisms at our disposal
that will detect most forms within a few days of the initial
activity. All proceeds from accounts with fraudulent activity
will be refunded to Advertisers. Publishers agree to not
artificially inflate traffic counts using a program (including
scripts), device, or other means. Excessive page reloading
or any other abuse of our system could result in legal
action. No Publisher shall induce visitors to click on
Creatives based on incentives. The following methods of
generating visitor interest are unacceptable to AdJungle
and may be grounds for dismissal from the Network: use
of unsolicited email or inappropriate newsgroup postings
to promote your Website; auto-spawning of browsers; automatic
redirecting of users; clicking on your own banners; blind
text links; misleading links; or any other method that
may lead to artificially high numbers of impressions or
clicks.
i) Code: AdJungle ad
codes must be not be modified from original format without
consent from AdJungle. Publisher agrees to use the ad
code provided for displaying Creative not more than ONCE
per page view for any given Zone. Ad codes cannot be placed
in email messages. Publisher
can not alter, copy, modify, take, sell, reuse, or divulge
any AdJungle computer code, except as is necessary to partake
in the AdJungle Network.
j) Data Reporting (Stats): AdJungle
is the sole owner of all Website, Campaign, Slot, Zone, and
aggregate web user data collected by AdJungle. Member
only has access to data that is collected through
the use of their inventory and Creative. Publishers will
be able to review overall data for each Zone and Default
Campaigns. Advertisers will be able to review Campaign performance
data. However, Creatives which utilize rich media
HTML ads that are loaded from a different location will not
count towards any click tracking statistic or click based
payment.
k) Contact Information: To
insure timely payment, Publishers are responsible for maintaining
the correct contact and payment information associated with
their account. Payment Profile information
must be updated by the last day of the month to be reflected
in the next payment. This must be done online using
the Member's account. Any and all bank/service fees associated
with returned or cancelled payments due to any error in the
Member contact or payment information are Member's
responsibility, and will be deducted from re-payment.
- PAYMENT POLICY
a) Rate: Standard AdJungle
payment rate (Publisher earnings) is 60% of gross Zone revenue.
Actual campaign CPM (cost per thousand displays) rates are
determined by Publishers for each Zone. AdJungle reserves
the right to set and negotiate specific payment terms on
an individual basis.
b) Payment Frequency: Publishers
will typically be paid within twenty-five (25) business days
after the end-of-month. Do
not invoice AdJungle; all Publisher invoices are discarded. Publishers
will be paid at the account level. All accounts will

for any amounts less than $20. Payments for balances
of less than $20 will incur a service charge of $10.00.
All unpaid earnings
will rollover to the next pay period.
c) Inactive Accounts: Any
Publisher account that records zero impressions for six (6)
months becomes subject to an account maintenance fee of $5
per month. Accounts with less than $5 subject to this fee
will be set to a zero balance, and no account balance will
go negative due to this fee.
d) Taxes: Every US-based
Publisher account must have a unique taxpayer identification
number (TIN). All
payments are based on actuals as defined, accounted and
audited by AdJungle. In no event will payments be made
on accounts that have not provided proper tax identification
information.
e) Fraud: AdJungle, reserves
the absolute right not to pay any accounts or Publishers
that violate any of the terms and conditions set forth herein.
AdJungle will be responsible for determining, in its sole
and absolute discretion, what acts and omissions violate
this policy, and which acts include activity that is deceptive
or fraudulent in nature. Examples of such acts may include,
without limitation, clicks without referring URLs, extraordinary
high numbers of repeat clicks, and clicks from
non-approved root URLs.
f) Refunds: Advertiser
agrees that all orders are final, and it is at the sole
discretion of AdJungle to issue refunds. If no refund
is issued, the Advertiser will receive a credit for the amount
charged which can be used
to purchase advertising on any Zone in the Network. Refunds for credit balances
will incur a service charge of $10.00.
