Advertising General Terms & Conditions

1. Conditions, other than rates, are subject to change by OSDN (Open Source Development Network) hereafter reffered to as OSDN without notice.

2. Acceptance of advertising programs are subject to space availability upon receipt of signed contract or insertion order by OSDN.

3. Online advertisements are accepted upon the representation that advertiser and its agency have the right to publish and display the advertisements and its contents. In consideration of such online publication and display, the advertiser and its agency agree to indemnify and hold OSDN harmless against any and all expense or loss by reason of any and all claims arising out of the online publication and display.

4. Positioning of advertisements is at the discretion of OSDN only, except where a request for a specific preferred position is acknowledged by publisher in writing. Material must be received by material closing date, otherwise position may be lost, or requested impression level may be reduced.

5. Cancellation Policy: Cancellations or changes in orders must be made in writing. Any campaign can be cancelled with no penalty up to two weeks before the scheduled start date of the campaign. Campaigns cancelled less than two weeks before the scheduled start date are subject to a 15% cancellation fee based on the original amount of the cancelled order. After a campaign has started, cancellation notices must be provided to OSDN at least two weeks prior to the effective date of cancellation. Advertisers will be re-billed for all impressions delivered through effective end date; if appropriate, short rates will apply.

6. Postponement Policy: In cases where ad material has not arrived by the fifth working day after the agreed-upon campaign start date, OSDN's postponement policy goes into effect. OSDN will reduce the number of total impressions for every day the campaign is late, based on even distribution, and the advertiser will be invoiced at the original contracted dollar amount.

7. OSDN may use prior ad materials if new materials are not received on time.

8. Insertion orders are accepted subject to the provisions appearing on the current rate card.

9. OSDN is not liable for delays in delivery and/or non-delivery in the event of an Act-of-God, actions of any government or quasi-governmental entity, fire, flood, insurrection, riot, explosion, embargo, strikes whether legal or illegal, labor or material shortage, transportation interruption of any kind, work slow-down or any condition beyond the control of OSDN affecting production or delivery in any manner.

10. Online publisher shall not be liable for any and all costs or damages if for any reason it fails to electronically publish and display an advertisement. In no event shall OSDN be liable for any and all damages, consequential or otherwise, in excess of the amount paid for the advertisement, as a result of any mistake in the advertisement, omission from or error in any index, or for any other reason.

11. OSDN shall have the right to hold advertiser and/or its advertising agency jointly and severally liable for such monies as are due and payable to OSDN for advertising which advertiser or its agent ordered and which advertising was published and displayed.

12. All contents of advertisements are subject to OSDN's approval. OSDN reserves the right to reject or cancel any advertisement, insertion order, space reservation or position commitment at any time.

13. No conditions other than those set forth in the rate card shall be binding upon OSDN unless specifically agreed to in writing by the OSDN. OSDN will not be bound by conditions printed or appearing on order blanks or copy instructions which conflict with the provisions of said rate card.

14. As used in these "General Terms and Conditions" the term OSDN shall refer to OSDN (Open Source Development Network), Andover.Net/OSDN, a VA Linux subsidiary.

15. All discounts are multiplicative and not additive.

16. Payment in full is due within 30 days of the "live" date of advertiser's program.

17. Rates are subject to change upon notice from OSDN. In the event of an increase in the rates not publicly announced prior to the first advertisement covered by the contract then in effect, advertisements reserved may be cancelled by the advertiser or its creative agency, at the time the increase becomes effective without incurring any short-rate charges, provided the advertisements published and displayed to the date of cancellation are consistent with the appropriate rate. Failure to meet impression frequency commitments for any other reason in whole or in part by the advertiser will result in an adjustment to the rate (short-rate) based on past and subsequent advertisements to reflect actual ad impressions displayed at the earned rate.
