You will not serve advertisements in any manner that may cause confusion or mistake.

You acknowledge that we may in our sole discretion cease your service of advertisements if we determine that the quality of your impressions is insufficient or fraudulent for any reason (including, without limitation, technical reasons and for violation of the Participation Conditions).

3. Measuring Impressions

We will use our own commercially accepted methods and practices to measure impressions of advertisements you serve and the amount and quality of the impressions. We are under no obligation to use any other methods or practices (including client-side software, third party counters or trade scripts) to make these measurements. All measurements provided by us are final. If you dispute any measurement provided by us, your sole remedy is to cease selling advertising space through the Service and submit a payout request.

You acknowledge and agree that we will not attribute to you impressions which we cannot with reasonable certainty determine that you sent. Examples of such situations include when you fail to properly use a Publishing Method (defined below) or when a user's browser settings prohibit our ability to properly measure or track impressions.

We will take commercially reasonable steps to provide you with online access to reports that track and review measurements related to your use of the Service. Such reports will be available to you on the Service. Such reports will be updated on a regular basis but we do not represent or warrant that they will always be in "real-time." We reserve the right to recalculate impressions based on a number of factors, including the discovery of fraud or technical errors. The form, content and frequency of updates of such reports are subject to change at our discretion.

If you and Your Property have been accepted into Publisher's Program, you may begin publishing advertisements from the Service on Your Properties by using one or more of the publication technologies and methods made available and described on the Service. You acknowledge and understand that we are under no obligation to count impressions you serve or publications you make if you fail to properly use the publication technologies and methods made available and described on the Service. You acknowledge and agree that it is your sole responsibility to appropriately implement said technologies and methods of publication.

You will accumulate payments to your Account based on various factors related to the publication of advertisements on Your Properties ("Payments"). The amounts of Payments will be based on our measurements and the factors set forth on the Service, as they may be updated and modified from time to time in our discretion. Rates are subject to change and may vary due to various reasons, including special and limited promotional offers and market factors. Your Payments will accrue to your Account regularly, but not necessarily in real-time.

We will take commercially reasonable means to process your payout request within a commercially reasonable time and in accordance with our procedures as they may be amended from time to time.

If you have not earned or accrued any Payment totaling an amount above the Payment Floor in any six month period, or if your use of the Service is terminated, we may charge you a maintenance fee in an amount up to the Payment Floor for every six month period. The maintenance fee may be deducted and offset against any unpaid Payments.

We may, in our sole discretion, refuse to process a payout request or place a payment hold on any part of all of your Payments for any reason, including if we have a reasonable suspicion that you have breached the Terms, including any of the Participation Conditions. You may dispute a payment hold by notifying us.

If a Payment is paid to you and we subsequently determine that some or all of the impressions you sent the Service to earn that Payment was sent in breach of the Terms, including any of the Participation Conditions, we may set-off the amount of the Payment accrued in breach, plus any related fees, from any Payments remaining in your Account and/or subsequent Payments earned. If there are no remaining Payments in your Account or no subsequent Payments earned, we shall send you an invoice for the set-off amount and you shall pay such invoice no later than thirty (30) after the invoice date.
