Active Interest Media, Inc. Advertising Terms & Conditions1. Payment must be made within 30 days of date of invoice. A 1.5% per month carrying charge will be added to delinquent accounts. In the event the account is turned over to an attorney or to a collection agency for collection, the reasonable cost of collection will be charged to the advertiser and the advertising agency, including without limitation attorney’s fees, col-lection agency fees, and court costs.

2. Active Interest Media will not be bound by any conditions printed or otherwise appearing on contracts, insertion orders, or copy instruc-tions when such conditions conflict with the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the rate card. Contracts, insertion orders, or copy changes will not be accepted without written confirmation. Insertion orders must specifically state magazine, issue(s) and space to be used.

3. All advertisements are published upon the understanding that the advertiser and the adver-tising agency (if any) assume full and complete responsibility and liability for the content of all advertisements submitted for publication. It is the responsibility of the advertiser and the advertising agency to ensure that all advertise-ments comply with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations both as to format and substance. The advertiser and the advertising agency each represent and warrant that the advertisements will not contain any matter that is deceptive, misleading, obscene, disparaging or libelous, or that violates any person’s right of privacy, or constitutes copyright infringe-ment, trademark infringement, or is otherwise contrary to law. Active Interest Media is not

responsible for errors in key numbers or any other typesetting done by Active Interest Media. The advertiser and the advertising agency each agree to indemnify and save harmless Active Interest Media and its employees and represen-tatives from any and all loss, expense, or other liability, including attorney’s fees, arising from any claims based on a breach or alleged breach of the foregoing representations and warranties.

4. Active Interest Media reserves the right, without liability, to reject, omit, or exclude any advertising order for any reason at any time with or without notice to the advertiser or advertising agency, and whether or not such advertising was previously acknowledged or published. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Active Interest Media may alter or reject any advertise-ment that contravenes its general rules for the acceptance of advertising or that in its opinion is or may be misleading or may expose Active Interest Media to any liability. Active Interest Media’s failure to exercise this right shall not relieve advertiser of its obligations under para-graph 3 above.

5. In the event an order is placed by an agency on behalf of the advertiser, such agency war-rants and represents that it has full right and authority to place such order on behalf of the advertiser. The advertiser and its agency, if there be one, each agrees to be jointly and severally liable for Active Interest Media’s charge for each advertisement placed. Thus, Active Interest Media may recover its advertising charges from either the advertiser or the agency, regardless of the relationship between the advertiser and the agency and without regard to any contrary provision in any insertion order, purchase order, or other document.

6. In order to cancel a contract, Active Interest Media as well as the sales representative must be notified in writing.

7. For critical color reproduction, a SWOP proof generated from the ad file must be supplied. If a SWOP proof is not provided, the ad will run within SWOP ink density specifications to “pleasing color”. If a SWOP proof is not pro-vided, Active Interest Media is not responsible for quality of reproduction.- See more at: http://www.fwmedia.com/terms#sthash.755wRrkX.dpuf
