1 Advertising Services.
Customer authorizes wavo.me and its affiliates to place Customer’s advertising materials, data, and technology (collectively, “Ads” or “Creative”) on any content or property (each a “Property”) provided by wavo.me or its affiliates on behalf of wavo.me or, as applicable, a third party (“Partner”). Customer is solely responsible for all: (i) Ads, (ii) Ads trafficking or targeting decisions (“Targets”), (iii) destinations to which Ads direct viewers (e.g., landing pages, mobile applications) along with the related URLs, waypoints, and redirects (“Destinations”), and (iv) services and products advertised on Destinations (collectively, “Services”). The Customer authorizes wavo.me and its affiliates to use automated tools to format Ads. Wavo.me and its affiliates may make available to Customer certain optional advertising services to assist Customer with the selection or generation of Targets, Ads, or Destinations. Customer is not required to authorize use of these optional services and, as applicable, may opt-in to or opt-out of usage of these services. However, if Customer uses these services, then Customer will be solely responsible for the Targets, Ads, and Destinations. wavo.me and its affiliates or Partners may reject or remove a specific Target, Ad, or Destination at any time for any or no reason. wavo.me and its affiliates may modify or cancel advertising services at any time.
2 Policies.
Customer is solely responsible for its use of the advertising platform and services (e.g., access to and use of advertising accounts and safeguarding usernames and passwords) (“Use”). advertising Use is subject to applicable wavo.me policies made available by wavo.me to Customer. Customer also authorizes wavo.me to modify Ads as described in Policies. In connection with the advertising, wavo.me will comply with the wavo.me Privacy Policy available at wavo.me/pages/privacy-policy (as modified from time to time).

3 Ad Serving.
(a) Customer will not provide Ads that contain or connect to malware, spyware, unwanted software or any other malicious code, or knowingly breach or circumvent any advertising security measure. (b) Customer may utilize an Ad server solely for serving or tracking Ads under advertising services that permit third-party Ad serving and only if the Ad server has been authorized by wavo.me. Wavo.me will implement Customer’s Ad server tags so that they are functional. (c) For online display Ad impressions billed on a CPM or vCPM basis (“Display Ads”), if wavo.me’s applicable impression count for an advertising campaign is higher than Customer’s third-party Ad server impression count by more than 10% over the invoice period, Customer will facilitate reconciliation efforts between wavo.me and the third-party ad server. If this discrepancy is not resolved, Customer’s sole remedy is to make a claim within 60 days after the invoice date (“Claim Period”). If wavo.me determines that the claim is valid, then wavo.me will issue to Customer advertising credits. Any advertising credits issued must be used by Customer within 60 days of issuance (“Use-By Date”) and wavo.me may suspend Customer’s permission to utilize that third-party ad server provider and may suspend. Metrics from the third-party whose Ad server tags are provided to wavo.me will be used in the above discrepancy resolution calculations. Wavo.me may require that discrepancy records be provided directly by the third-party ad server to wavo.me. Customer will not be credited for discrepancies caused by the third-party ad servers inability to serve Ads.
4 Testing.
Customer authorizes wavo.me and its affiliates to periodically conduct tests that may affect Customer’s Use of the advertising platform and services, including Ad formatting, Targets, Destinations, quality, ranking, performance, pricing, and auction-time bid adjustments. To ensure the timeliness and validity of test results, Customer authorizes wavo.me to conduct such tests without notice or compensation to Customer.
5 Ad Cancellation.
Unless a Policy, the advertising 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 wavo.me (e.g., a reservation-based campaign), then Customer is responsible for any cancellation fees communicated by wavo.me to Customer, and the Ad may still be published. Cancelled Ads will generally cease serving within 24 business hours or as described in a Policy or IO, and 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 wavo.me via email to Customer’s account representative, or (iii) if this functionality is not available and Customer does not have an account representative, with notice to wavo.me via email to [email protected]. Customer will not be relieved of any payment obligations for Ads not submitted or submitted by Customer after the due date provided by wavo.me. wavo.me will not be bound by a Customer provided IO.

Customer warrants that it is authorized to act on behalf of, and has bound to these Terms, each third party, if any, for which Customer advertises in connection with these Terms (“Advertiser”) and any references to Customer in these Terms will also apply to Advertiser, as applicable.

7 Make-Goods.
For reservation-based Display Ads, wavo.me will deliver any agreed on aggregate number of Display Ads by the end of the campaign, but if wavo.me fails to do so, then Customer’s sole remedy is to make a claim during the Claim Period. If wavo.me confirms the accuracy of the claim, then wavo.me will not charge Customer for the undelivered Display Ads or, if Customer has already paid, at wavo.me’s reasonable discretion, wavo.me will provide for (i) advertising credits, which must be used by the Use-By Date, (ii) placement of the Display Ads in a position wavo.me deems comparable within 60 days of wavo.me’s confirmation of the accuracy of the claim or (iii) an extension of the term of the campaign. wavo.me cannot assure that any auction-based Ads will be delivered. Wavo.me cannot assure that any ads purchased on a partner site will be delivered.

Any portion of a charge not disputed in good faith must be paid in full. No party may offset any payment due under these Terms against any other payment to be made under these Terms. wavo.me may, in its sole discretion, extend, revise or revoke credit at any time. wavo.me is not obligated to deliver any Ads in excess of any credit limit. If wavo.me does not deliver Ads to the selected Targets or Destinations, then Customer’s sole remedy is to make a claim for advertising credits within the Claim Period, after which wavo.me 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 if that happens, Customer’s sole remedy is to make a claim for advertising credits within the Claim Period, after which wavo.me will issue the credits following claim validation, which must be used by the Use-By Date.
