Upon approval of the Publisher by Affiliati Network to participate in the Campaign, Publisher shall be permitted to download Creatives from the Network: (i) for appropriate publication by Publisher on all approved marketing channels. Publisher shall include the specific links provided by Affiliati Network directing traffic to Affiliati Network’s Advertisers in all Creatives for each specific Campaign in which Publisher participates. Publisher’s use of all Creatives, whether created by Advertisers or Publisher or any other party, may be rejected at any time by the Affiliati Network if they fail to comply with these Terms. Affiliati Network may, at its sole and absolute discretion, request Publisher remove or stop using Creatives or other Campaign related material, and Publisher shall remove Creatives or other Campaign related material within 24 hours of Affiliati Network’s request. Failure by Publisher to do so may, in Affiliati Network’s sole discretion, result in Affiliati Network terminating Publisher’s active status, removing Publisher from any or all Campaigns, and or terminating Publisher as an affiliate of the Affiliati Network, as Affiliati Network deems appropriate at its sole and absolute discretion.
   
   
6. Use of Sub-Contractors or Sub-Affiliates. Subject to the terms of these Terms, Publisher may use a third party vendor, contractor, or business partner to fulfill its obligations or perform under the Campaign (“Sub-Affiliate”), so long as the Sub-Affiliate(s) are first disclosed in writing by Publisher to Affiliati Network, the Sub-Affiliate(s) meet the same criteria for approval as set forth in these Terms and the Sub-Affiliate(s) comply with all the terms and conditions that are applicable to Affiliate under these Terms and Campaign terms. Affiliati Network reserves the right to approve or reject any Sub-Affiliates and may revoke a prior approval of any Sub-Affiliate at any time and for any reason. As a result, Publisher shall be responsible for and shall fully and unconditionally indemnify, defend and hold Affiliati Network harmless for any and all actions of any of its Sub-Affiliates, including the payment of legal fees and costs if necessary. If Affiliati Network grants approval to a Publisher’s Sub-Affiliate, notices to the Publisher shall be deemed adequate notice to that Publisher’s approved Sub-Affiliate(s). Publisher agrees that Affiliati Network shall never have any obligation to make any payment to Sub-Affiliate, including, but not limited to the payment of any fees or commissions. Affiliati Network reserves the right to withhold or refuse payment to Publisher in the event that any of its Sub-Affiliates breach the terms of the Campaign or these Terms. Publisher may only use a Sub-Affiliate if (i) Publisher provides Affiliati Network the name and/or sub-ID for the Sub-Affiliate, and (ii) Affiliati Network provides its prior written approval for the proposed Sub-Affiliate (once approved, an “Approved Sub-Affiliate”). In that event, Publisher shall be responsible for the actions of the Sub-Affiliate and Publisher shall maintain and provide to Affiliati Network, upon request: (a) any and all names under which its Sub-Affiliate do business; (b) the state of incorporation/formation of each of Sub-Affiliate; (c) the registered agent of each of its Sub-Affiliate; (d) the first and last name, physical address, country, telephone number, and email address for at least one natural person who owns, manages or controls each Sub-Affiliate, as the case may be; and (e) the complete bank account information associated with the payments that are to be made to the Sub-Affiliate.
   
   
7. Payment of Commissions. Affiliati Network will specify within its Network the amount and terms under which Publisher will earn payment of a Commission for a particular Campaign. Payments to Publisher are generated from a specified Action as defined by Affiliati Network for each particular Campaign, Affiliati Network shall pay Publisher the specified and applicable rate. The applicable Action associated with each Campaign shall be set forth in the applicable Campaign terms and, unless otherwise specified, such definition shall only apply with respect to that Campaign. Publisher shall only be entitled to payment for Actions Affiliati Network deems valid based upon Affiliati Network’s tracking of such Actions pursuant to Section 7 of these Terms. If Publisher agrees to participate in a Campaign, Publisher agrees to place the applicable Campaign's Creatives on the Publisher Materials, in accordance with these Terms and the accepted Campaign terms. Affiliati Network may, at its sole discretion, change a Campaign at any time, upon prior notice to Publisher, unless otherwise specified in the Campaign terms. In the event Publisher violates, or if Affiliati Network in good faith believes that Publisher has violated, any of the terms in these Terms or the Campaign, Affiliati Network shall not be obligated to pay Publisher any Commissions owed to Publisher and Affiliati Network, in its sole and final discretion, may offset and withhold Commissions due to Publisher to satisfy any losses, damages, legal fees, consulting fees, or penalties incurred by Affiliati Network due to Publisher’s violations. Publisher further understands and agrees that Commissions will be paid to Publisher only following Affiliati Network’s receipt of the Advertiser’s payment of the applicable Commissions with respect to such Campaign. Affiliati Network may, in its sole discretion and from time to time, elect to advance to Publisher part or all of the Commissions prior to the receipt of payment by an Advertiser, but in no event will Affiliati Network be obligated to do so. Publisher acknowledges and agrees that payment of Commissions may be delayed where the Publisher has not complied with these Terms and that in no case shall Affiliati Network be liable to the Publisher for any loss, costs, or expenses directly or indirectly incurred by the Publisher as a result of such delay or that arises from Publisher’s violations of these Terms.
   
   
8. Tracking. Affiliati Network shall track all Actions for each Campaign in real time. Campaign data compiled by Affiliati Network including, but not limited to, data, numbers and calculations regarding Actions (“Campaign Data”), will be calculated by Affiliati Network through the use of industry standard tracking technology and shall be final and binding on Publisher. Publisher shall not modify or otherwise interfere with Affiliati Network’s tracking devices in any way. Any questions, objections, or complaints regarding the Campaign Data must be submitted in writing within fourteen (14) days of initial appearance in the tracking system; otherwise, the Campaign Data will be deemed to be accurate and approved by Publisher.
   
   
9. Timing of Payments. Publisher agrees to be paid and accept the amount for each Action specified in the applicable Campaign terms and in accordance with these Term. Unless otherwise stated in the Campaign terms and excluding circumstances that would result in a delay in payment of Commissions to Publisher by Affiliati Network as described in more detail in Section 6 above, Affiliati Network will issue payment to Publisher on a monthly net 15 basis, i.e. by the 15^th of each month, for each preceding month.
   
   
10. Availability of Network. Publisher understands and agrees that on occasion the Network may be inaccessible, unavailable or inoperable for any reason, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) equipment malfunctions; (ii) periodic maintenance procedures or repairs; or (iii) causes beyond the control of Affiliati Network or which are not reasonably foreseeable by Affiliati Network including, but not limited to, interruption or failure of telecommunication or digital transmission links, hostile network attacks, the unavailability, operation, or inaccessibility of websites or interfaces, network congestion or other failures. Affiliati Network will attempt to provide the Service on a continuous basis. However, Publisher acknowledges and agrees that Affiliati Network has no control over the availability of the Service and Network on a continuous or uninterrupted basis. Terms of these Terms are subject to Affiliati Network’s hardware, software, and bandwidth traffic limitations. Affiliati Network’s failure to deliver because of technical difficulties does not represent a failure to meet the obligations of these Terms.
    
    
11. Fraud, Claims and Disputes. Affiliati Network actively monitors Campaigns for fraudulent activity. In the event that Affiliati Network suspects that Publisher’s account or the Campaign has been used in a fraudulent manner, Publisher’s account may be deactivated by Affiliati Network without notice effective immediately pending Affiliati Network’s further investigation. If Publisher inflates Actions, through the use of fraudulent means of traffic generation, Publisher will forfeit all of the amounts owed to Publisher by Affiliati Network related to that Campaign, and Publisher’s account may be either suspended or terminated effective immediately without notice. Affiliati Network reserves sole judgment in determining fraud. Publisher agrees to cooperate in good faith with Affiliati Network during its investigation of any fraud, and Publisher agrees to be bound by any and all of Affiliati Network’s determinations. It is Publisher’s obligation to prove to Affiliati Network that Publisher has not engaged in fraud. Affiliati Network will hold Publisher’s payments in 'Pending Status' until Publisher has satisfactorily provided evidence that demonstrates to Affiliati Network that Publisher has not engaged in fraud. If Publisher is unable to provide Affiliati Network with satisfactory evidence that Publisher has not engaged in fraud within seven (7) days of Publisher’s account being placed on hold pending an investigation of fraud, then Affiliati Network reserves the right to terminate Publisher’s account and cancel payment on the applicable Actions, at its sole discretion and without any further obligations to Publisher.
    
    
12. Termination. Unless otherwise set forth in these Terms, either party may terminate these Terms at any time by delivering to the other forty-eight (48) hours advance written notice of such party’s intent to terminate. No termination shall be effective, and this agreement shall remain in full force and effect, until forty-eight (48) hours after the other party receives the terminating party’s notice of termination. In the event Affiliati Network discovers that Publisher has violated these Terms or engaged in any questionable or fraudulent marketing practices, Affiliati Network may in its discretion suspend, terminate, or permanently ban Publisher from the Network. Upon termination or expiration of these Terms, for any reason, Publisher shall continue to perform its obligations under Sections 12, 13, and 14 below, and any other provisions of these Terms which are to expressly survive, or that may reasonably be expected to survive, termination or expiration of these Terms.

Affiliati Network wishes to ensure that the information so exchanged is treated by all parties as strictly confidential, and Publisher agrees to treat all information Publisher receives from Affiliati Network in the strictest confidence. Publisher shall hold the Confidential Information in the strictest confidence and shall not disclose the Confidential Information to any third party without Affiliati Network’s written consent. Publisher agrees not to disclose any Confidential Information to any unauthorized person and promise not to use any Confidential Information for any purpose other than in connection with the subject matter contained in these Terms.

    2. Procedure. If Publisher becomes legally compelled to disclose any Confidential Information, Publisher shall provide to Affiliati Network: (1) prompt written notice of such requirement so that Affiliati Network may seek, at its sole cost and expense, a protective order or other remedy; and (2) reasonable assistance, at Affiliati Network’s sole cost and expense, in opposing such disclosure or seeking a protective order or other limitations on disclosure. If, after providing such notice and assistance as required herein, Publisher remains required by law to disclose any Confidential Information, Publisher shall disclose no more than that portion of the Confidential Information which, on the advice of Publisher’s legal counsel, Publisher is legally required to disclose, and, upon Affiliati Network's request, Publisher shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurances from the applicable court or agency that such Confidential Information will be afforded confidential treatment.
       
       
    3. Injunctive Relief. The Parties recognize that each Party has legitimate business interests to protect and as a consequence, each Party, and its principals, agree to the restrictions contained in this Agreement because they further each Party’s legitimate business interests. The Parties acknowledge and agree that damages in the event of a breach or threatened breach of the covenants contained above in this Agreement will be difficult to determine and the non-breaching Party will not have an adequate remedy at law, and therefore the Parties agree that they may, in addition to seeking actual damages, seek specific enforcement of the covenants set forth in this Agreement by way of the issuance of a temporary or permanent injunction, without notice and without the necessity of a bond. The Parties agree that the covenants in this Agreement are reasonable, including without limitation the period of time, scope, and geographical area. However, should it be determined that any provision is unreasonable, the Parties agree that the covenants should be interpreted and enforced to the maximum extent deemed reasonable under applicable law. The Parties’ obligations contained in this Section 12 shall survive the termination of these Terms for any reason.
       
       
14. Non-Circumvent. Publisher recognizes that Affiliati has proprietary relationships with its Advertisers. Publisher agrees not to circumvent Affiliati Network's relationship with such Advertisers, or to otherwise solicit, purchase, contract for or obtain Services similar to the Services performed by Affiliati Network hereunder from any Advertiser that is known, or should reasonably be known, by Publisher to have such a relationship with Affiliati Network. Affiliati Network shall confirm to Publisher whether a particular Person has a relationship with Affiliati Network upon Publisher’s reasonable request for the sole purpose of Publisher’s compliance with this Section 12, and Publisher may not use such information for any other purpose other than compliance with this Section 12. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that Publisher can show that any such Advertisers already provided such Services to Publisher prior to the date of the first Insertion Order(s) executed by the Parties, then Publisher shall not be prohibited from continuing such relationship. Publisher agrees that monetary damages for its breach, or threatened breach, of this Section 10 will not be adequate and that Affiliati Network shall be entitled to injunctive relief (including temporary and preliminary relief) without the requirement to post a bond, in additional to any other available legal remedies or damages.
