Introduction.
This Agreement between you and Ham Radio Nation Ad Network, Inc. and its affiliates ("Ham Radio Nation Ad Network")
consists of these AdRevenue Standard Terms and Conditions ("Terms and Conditions"),
the AdRevenue Program (the "Program") Frequently Asked Questions, which
may be revised periodically, and the terms of any advertising campaign you submit
or modify. "You" or "Advertiser" means any entity identified
in an enrollment form submitted by the same or affiliated persons, and/or any
agency acting on its (or their) behalf, which shall also be bound by the terms
of this Agreement.
These terms and conditions also apply to the advertising
program known as "AdRevenue" in certain countries.
- Uses; Partner Sites. You agree that your ads may be placed
on any site owned or operated by Ham Radio Nation Ad Network (a "Ham Radio Nation Ad Network Web Site")
on any site owned by a third party (a "Partner") with which Ham Radio Nation Ad Network
has an agreement to place AdRevenue ads ("Partner Site"). Unless otherwise
agreed to in writing by Ham Radio Nation Ad Network, any ads may be modified without your consent
to comply with any policy of Ham Radio Nation Ad Network or any Partner Site. Ham Radio Nation Ad Network reserves the
right to, and in its sole discretion may, at any time review, reject, modify,
or remove any ad. The Partners may also have certain rights allowing them
to reject, modify or withdraw ads placed under this Agreement. No liability
of Ham Radio Nation Ad Network and/or any Partner shall result from any such decision.
- Communications Solely With Ham Radio Nation Ad Network. Even if your ad(s) are
placed on Partner Site(s), you agree to direct to Ham Radio Nation Ad Network, and not to any Partner,
any communication regarding your ad(s) on any Partner Site.
- Parties' Responsibilities. You are solely responsible for
the content of your ads, including URL links.

service, payment processing, shipping, cancellations or returns.

generated search requests, and/or the fraudulent use of other search engine
optimization services and/or software; (ii) to advertise substances, services,
products or materials that are illegal in any state or country where the ad
is displayed; (iii) in any way that violates any policy posted on the Ham Radio Nation Ad Network
Web Site, as revised from time to time; or (iv) to engage in any other illegal
or fraudulent business practice under the laws of any state or country where
the ad is displayed. You may not include links to any Web site(s) as part
of your ad, unless the content found at such site(s) is relevant to your Target(s).
You may not run multiple ads linking to the same or similar site on the same
search results page. Violation of these policies may result in immediate termination
of this Agreement without notice, and may subject you to state and federal
penalties and other legal consequences.
- Termination; Cancellation. Ham Radio Nation Ad Network may at any time, in its
sole discretion, terminate the Program, terminate this Agreement, or cancel
any ad(s) or your use of any Target. Except as set forth in Section 5 above
or unless Ham Radio Nation Ad Network has previously canceled or terminated your use of the Program,
Ham Radio Nation Ad Network will notify you via email of any such termination or cancellation,
which shall be effective immediately. You may cancel or delete any ad and/or
terminate this Agreement by canceling or deleting all ads hereunder, with
or without cause at any time, via your account by changing the end dates of
such ad(s) to your desired cancellation date or by deleting the ads you no
longer wish to run. A cancelled ad may continue to run for up to 24 hours
before such cancellation takes effect. Upon cancellation of any ad or termination
of this Agreement for any reason, (i) you shall remain liable for any amount
due for clicks already delivered or for clicks on any ad(s) through the date
such cancellation or termination takes effect, and (ii) Sections 2 and 4 through

that has become publicly known through no breach by a party, or has been (i)
independently developed without access to the other party's Confidential Information;

by law or by a governmental authority.

matter hereof. Any modifications to this Agreement must be made in a writing
executed by both parties. The waiver of any breach or default of this Agreement
will not constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default. 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. Advertiser may not resell, assign, or transfer
any of its rights hereunder. Any such attempt may result in termination of
this Agreement, without liability to Ham Radio Nation Ad Network. The relationship(s) between Ham Radio Nation Ad Network
