Advertising Terms and Conditions

text ads you must agree to these terms and conditions. Placement
of a text advertisement via our system signifies that you understand
and accept these terms and conditions and agree to be bound
by them.
If
your advertisement breaches these terms and conditions, we have
the right to terminate the offending ad without notice and without
refund. You have the right to substitute another text advertisement
that complies with these terms and conditions. If your substitute
advertisement is found to be in breach, it may be terminated
and you forfeit your payment and any right to place another
substitute advertisement.
These
Terms and Conditions ("Terms") are entered into by,
as applicable, the customer signing these Terms or any document
that references these Terms or that accepts these Terms electronically
("Customer") and The Profit Clinic ("Profit Clinic").

if both parties jointly wrote it, governed by Australian law
except for its conflicts of laws principles and adjudicated
in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The Agreement constitutes
the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the
subject matter hereof, and supersedes and replaces any other
applicable agreements, terms and conditions applicable to the
subject matter hereof. Any conflicting or additional terms contained
in additional documents (e.g. reference to a purchase order
number) or oral discussions are void. Each party shall not disclose
the terms or conditions of these Terms to any third party, except
to its professional advisors under a strict duty of confidentiality
or as necessary to comply with a government law, rule or regulation.
Customer may grant approvals, permissions, extensions and consents

to Profit Clinic must be sent to The Profit Clinic at its current
registered place of business (see www.profitclinic.com/legal, with a copy to Legal Department,
via certified mail, with a copy sent via first class or air
mail or overnight courier, and are deemed given upon receipt.
Notice to Customer may be effected by sending email to the email
address specified in Customer's account, and is deemed received
when sent (for email) or no more than 15 days after having been
posted. A waiver of any default is not a waiver of any subsequent
default. Unenforceable provisions will be modified to reflect
the parties' intention and only to the extent necessary to make
them enforceable, and remaining provisions of the Agreement
will remain in full effect. Customer may not assign any of its
rights hereunder and any such attempt is void. Profit Clinic
and Customer and Profit Clinic and Partners are not legal partners
or agents, but are independent contractors. In the event that
these Terms or an Advertising Program expire or is terminated,
Profit Clinic shall not be obligated to return any materials
to Customer.
