Policies

Payment terms: Payment is due upon receipt of invoice. Payment from a non-US advertiser must be either in US currency, in the form of a check drawn from a US bank in US dollars, or a money order in US dollars. Agency commission: A commission of 15% of gross billing is allowed on gross display advertising rates. Agency commission is not allowable on marketplace, regional and classified advertising. If account is sent out for collection due to nonpayment, agency commission is forfeited, and all collection, court costs and legal fees will be added.

Contract regulations: Contracted space must be used within one year from the first insertion. Frequency rates are applicable for space used within one calendar year from the first insertion. Written insertion orders are requested for each ad. Cancellations must be received in writing before the closing date. An advertiser who has been billed at a frequency discount rate and fails to advertise at the requested frequency will be short-rated - that is, billed for the difference between the contracted frequency discount rate, and the earned rate. If an advertiser has been billed at one rate but earns a frequency discount by using more space than planned, a rebate - the difference between the billed rate and the frequency discount rate - will be given. Adjustments will be made when an advertiser reaches the next frequency discount level. The publisher has the right to approve all advertising, and may reject advertising for any reason at any time. Advertisers, their media placement firms, and their advertising agencies are jointly and severally liable for all invoices due and payable. Online advertising is non-refundable. Publisher's Liability and Indemnity: The publisher shall not be liable for any failure to print, publish or circulate any or all portions of an issue containing an advertisement accepted by the publisher if the failure is caused by acts of God, strikes, accidents or other circumstances beyond the publisher's control. In the event of a dispute regarding an advertisement, the liability of the publisher for any error shall not exceed the republication of the ad.

Publisher's Protective Clause: Publisher reserves the right to edit or reject copy. The advertiser agrees to indemnify the publisher and hold harmless from any and all demands, claims or suits arising out of the publication of any advertising accepted and from any and all loss, cost, damage and expense, including attorneys' fees, sustained by the publisher in connection with any such demand, claim or suit. No conditions, printed or otherwise, appearing on advertising agency insertion orders or advertiser purchase orders which conflict with the publisher's policies will be binding on the publisher. The publisher will not be liable for any consequential loss or damage occasioned by the failure of any advertisement to appear from any cause whatsoever, nor does it accept liability for errors in any advertisement published, nor for its failure to appear on any specified date. All display advertising and inserts must adhere to the specifications as set forth in this media kit. NewMobiliy and any other affiliate of the United Spinal Association assumes no responsibility for ads or inserts failing to meet these guidelines.
