PUBLISHER Online Standard Terms and Conditions

Introduction. This agreement ("Agreement") between You and BizCentral Inc. ("BizCentral") consists of these BizCentral Advertisingz Online Program (the "Program") Standard Terms and Conditions ("Terms and Conditions"). A description of the Program, as generally offered by BizCentral, is available at the Program Frequently Asked Questions ("FAQ") URL, located at http://www.advertisingz.com/publisherfaq.htm, or such other URL as BizCentral may provide from time to time. "You" or "Publisher" means any entity identified in an enrollment form submitted by the same or affiliated persons, and/or any agency or network acting on its (or their) behalf, which shall also be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

  1. Program Participation. Participation in the Program is subject to BizCentral prior approval and Your continued compliance with the Program Policies ("Program Policies"), located at http://www.advertisingz.com/qualification.htm, or such other URL as BizCentral may provide from time to time. BizCentral reserves the right to refuse participation to any applicant or participant at any time in its sole discretion. By enrolling in the Program, You represent that You are at least 18 years of age and agree that BizCentral may serve third party and/or BizCentral provided advertisements (collectively, "Ads") in connection with the Web site(s) that You designate (each a "Site") using BizCentral's advertising serving technology. Multiple accounts held by the same individual or entity are subject to immediate termination unless expressly authorized in writing by BizCentral (including by electronic mail).
  2. Implementation and Operation of Ads. You agree to comply with the specifications provided by BizCentral to enable proper delivery, display, tracking, and reporting of Ads, and BizCentral Brand Features (as defined in Section 12 below) in connection with Your Site(s), including without limitation by not modifying the JavaScript or other programming provided to You by BizCentral in any way, unless expressly authorized in writing by BizCentral (including by electronic mail). Certain BizCentral services available as part of the Program may contain filtering capability, such as FamilySafe, that you may access through Your account. However, if You elect to enable any such filters, You acknowledge and agree that: (i) it is Your responsibility to enable such features in accordance with the specifications provided by BizCentral, and (ii) BizCentral does not and cannot commit that all ads will be limited to such filter(s). BizCentral may also include in certain services features which are unsupported under BizCentral's then current technical documentation. Such features are provided "as is" and Your use of them shall be undertaken solely at Your own risk.
  3. Communications Solely With BizCentral. You agree to direct to BizCentral, and not to any advertiser, any communication regarding any Ad(s) displayed in connection with Your Site(s).
  4. Parties' Responsibilities. You are solely responsible for the Site(s), including all content and materials, maintenance and operation thereof, the proper implementation of BizCentral's specifications, and adherence to the terms of this Agreement, including compliance with the Program Policies. BizCentral reserves the right to investigate, at its own discretion, any activity that may violate this Agreement, including but not limited to any use of a software application to access Ads, or any engagement in any activity prohibited by this Agreement. BizCentral is not responsible for anything related to Your Site(s) or the transmission of data between Your Site(s) and BizCentral. In addition, BizCentral shall not be obligated to provide notice to You in the event that Ads are not being displayed properly to end users of the Site(s).
  5. Prohibited Uses. You shall not, and shall not authorize or encourage any third party to: (i) directly or indirectly generate impressions of or clicks on any Ad(s) through any automated, deceptive, disingenuous or fraudulent means, including but not limited to through repeated manual clicks, the use of robots or other automated tools and/or computer generated requests, and/or the fraudulent use of other software; (ii) edit, modify, filter or change the order of the information contained in any Ad or Ad Unit, or remove, obscure or minimize any Ad or Ad Unit in any way; (iii) frame any Web page accessed by an end user after clicking on any part of a Ad ("Advertiser Page") or any BizCentral-hosted Web page that contains Ads; (iv) redirect an end user away from any Advertiser Page or provide a version of the Advertiser Page that is different from the page an end user would access by going directly to the Advertiser Page or the applicable Pop-Undered Page, intersperse any content between the Ad and the Advertiser Page or otherwise provide anything other than a direct link from an Ad to an Advertiser Page; (v) display any Ad(s) on any error page, registration or "thank you" page (e.g., a page that thanks a user after he/she has registered with the applicable Web site), or in any email, or on any Web page or any Web site that contains any hate-related or violent content; (vi) directly or indirectly access, launch and/or activate Ads or Pop Unders through or from, or otherwise incorporate the Ads or Pop Unders in, any software application, Web site or other means other than Your Site(s), and then only to the extent expressly permitted by this Agreement (e.g., while Pop Unders may be indirectly accessed from Your Site(s), they may only be displayed on the appropriate BizCentral-hosted Web page); (vii) "crawl", "spider", index or in any non-transitory manner store or cache information obtained from any Pop Unders and/or Ad(s) or any part, copy or derivative thereof, or (viii) act in any way that violates any Program Policies posted on the BizCentral Web Site, as may be revised from time to time. You acknowledge that any attempted participation or violation of any of the foregoing is a material breach of this Agreement and that we may pursue any and all applicable legal and equitable remedies against You, including an immediate suspension of Your account or termination of this Agreement, and the pursuit of all available civil or criminal remedies relating to fraud and other legal claims.

In addition, BizCentral reserves the right to terminate without notice any account that has not generated a sufficient number of valid Ads (as measured by BizCentral) for a period of two (2) months or more.

In addition, if You are past due on any payment to BizCentral in connection with any BizCentral program (including without limitation BizCentral advertising services), BizCentral reserves the right to withhold payment until all outstanding payments have been made or to offset amounts owed to You in connection with the Program by amounts owed by You to BizCentral.

Payment shall be calculated solely based on records maintained by BizCentral. No other measurements or statistics of any kind shall be accepted by BizCentral or have any effect under this Agreement. The payments made under this Agreement are for use by You only and may not be transferred or in any manner passed on to any third party (i.e., distributed to Sites managed by You that require separate payments) unless expressly authorized in writing by BizCentral (including by electronic mail).
  12. Publicity. You agree that BizCentral may use Your name and logo in presentations, marketing materials, customer lists, financial reports and Web site listings of customers.

Any modifications to this Agreement must be made in a writing executed by both parties, by Your online acceptance of updated terms, or after Your continued participation in the Program after such terms have been updated by BizCentral. The failure to require performance of any provision shall not affect a party's right to require performance at any time thereafter, nor shall a waiver of any breach or default of this Agreement constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. If any provision herein is held unenforceable, then such provision will be modified to reflect the parties' intention, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. You may not resell, assign, or transfer any of Your rights hereunder. Any such attempt may result in termination of this Agreement, without liability to BizCentral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BizCentral may assign this Agreement to any affiliate at any time without notice. The relationship between BizCentral and You is not one of a legal partnership relationship, but is one of independent contractors.
