When Signatory uses the Ad Service on its own behalf it is an "Advertiser". When Signatory uses the Ad Service on behalf of a third party, Signatory is an "Agency" and that third party is an "Advertiser". The parties agree as follows: 1. The Ad Service. (a) Advertiser authorizes piglix.com to place the advertisements, related technology and any other content that Advertiser provides in connection with the Ad Service ("Ad Content") on any piglix.com or third party product or property made available in connection with the Ad Service ("Ad Service Properties"). Advertiser is solely responsible for (i) Ad Content, (ii) any website, application or other destination to which Ad Content directs users ("Destinations"), (iii) services and products offered on Ad Content and Destinations ("Advertiser Products"), and (iv) its use of the Ad Service (e.g. bidding and targeting decisions). (b) Advertiser grants piglix.com and its users a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sub-licensable, worldwide license to use, store, display, reproduce, modify, create derivative works, perform, and distribute Ad Content on the Ad Service Properties. Nothing in this Agreement will restrict other legal rights piglix.com may have to Ad Content (for example, under other licenses). (c) Advertiser represents and warrants that (i) it has all necessary rights to grant the licenses in Section 1(b), (ii) the Ad Content will not violate any applicable law or regulation, or infringe any third party intellectual property rights, and (iii) that is has the necessary authority to enter into this Agreement. Advertiser will comply with all laws applicable to Advertiser's use of the Ad Service and the Ad Content, Destinations, and Advertiser Products. (d) If Advertiser collects data (including Ad Data as defined in Exhibit A) from end users that is used with an Ad Service feature (for example, conversion tracking), Advertiser must provide clear notice to each end user and obtain any legally-required consent from each end user for the collection, sharing and use of that data by Advertiser and piglix.com. If Advertiser uses piglix.com technology that stores and accesses cookies or other information on an end user's device, Advertiser must clearly disclose, and obtain end user consent for, that activity where required by law. Advertiser will ensure that any personal data obtained from end users is processed and transferred in compliance with applicable data protection laws and regulations, and will follow all reasonable directions from piglix.com related to such compliance. (e) piglix.com and Advertiser will each comply with the piglix.com Data Sharing Addendum attached as Exhibit A. (f) Agency represents and warrants that it: (i) is the authorized agent of Advertiser, and (ii) has the legal authority to enter into the Agreement, bind Advertiser under this Agreement, and use the Ad Service, each on behalf of Advertiser. Agency will be liable for Advertiser's obligations under this Agreement to the extent Agency (i) fails to bind Advertiser to this Agreement or (ii) breaches its representations and warranties in this Section 1(f). piglix.com may share information about Agency's use of the Ad Service on behalf of an Advertiser with that Advertiser. (g) For clarity, piglix.com's Business Terms of Service (business.piglix.com/business-terms-service), along with any additional terms between Advertiser and piglix.com, govern Advertiser's use of any piglix.com website, product, or service other than the Advertising Service. 2. Policies. Advertiser's use of the Ad Service is subject to the Ad Service policies made available to Advertiser ("Policies"), including piglix.com's Acceptable Use Policy (about.piglix.com/use/), Advertising Standards (about.piglix.com/advertising-standards), and Brand Guidelines (business.piglix.com/brand-guidelines). piglix.com may modify Policies from time to time. Advertiser authorizes piglix.com to review any Destination, including by automated means, to provide the Ad Service and to determine compliance with Policies. Advertiser will not, and will not authorize any third party to, (i) generate automated, fraudulent or otherwise invalid impressions, clicks, or other user actions, or (ii) use any automated means or form of scraping or data extraction to access information relating to the Ad Service, except as expressly permitted by piglix.com. Advertiser acknowledges that piglix.com has the right, but not the obligation, to monitor Ad Content. piglix.com may reject or remove Ad Content (i) where it reasonably suspects or becomes aware such Ad Content infringes any (a) applicable laws, (b) regulations or third-party rights, or (c) Policies, or (ii) for any reason. In addition, piglix.com may (i) suspend or terminate Advertiser's participation in the Ad Service if it believes in good faith that Advertiser is in breach of this Agreement or Policies and (ii) modify or cancel the Ad Service at any time. Advertiser will not break or circumvent an Ad Service security measure or provide Ad Content that contains malware or other malicious code. 3. Payment. (a) General. Advertiser will pay all charges incurred in connection with the Ad Service based on the applicable billing metric (e.g. impressions, engagements, clicks or other metrics) ("Charges"). Charges will be based solely on piglix.com's measurements and are exclusive of taxes. Advertiser will pay all applicable taxes and other government charges. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Advertiser waives all claims related to Charges not disputed in writing 60 days after the applicable invoice or credit card charge. piglix.com may extend, revise or revoke credit and invoice billing to Advertiser at any time in piglix.com's sole discretion. (b) Payment. If Advertiser submits its credit card information for payment, Advertiser authorizes piglix.com to obtain pre-authorization and charge Advertiser's credit card for Charges. Advertiser is solely responsible for any additional fees (e.g. overage fees) resulting from the use of the credit card for payment. If piglix.com approves Advertiser for invoice billing, piglix.com will invoice Advertiser monthly and Advertiser will pay all Charges Net 30 days from its receipt of an invoice, provided piglix.com may charge Advertiser's credit card, if submitted, for late unpaid invoices. Late payments will bear interest at a rate of 1.5% per month or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is less. Advertiser will pay reasonable expenses and attorney's fees piglix.com incurs in collecting late payment. (c) Agency Liability. If Agency uses the Ad Service on behalf of an Advertiser to which piglix.com has extended credit, and piglix.com relies on such Advertiser's credit limit for Agency's use of the Ad Service, then piglix.com will hold Agency liable for Charges solely to the extent Agency has received payment from the Advertiser and piglix.com may seek payment directly from the Advertiser. If (i) piglix.com cannot extend an Advertiser credit, (ii) piglix.com has extended Agency credit, and (iii) Agency elects in writing for piglix.com to rely on Agency's credit limit for Agency's use of the Ad Service on behalf of an Advertiser, then: piglix.com will hold Agency and the Advertiser jointly and severally liable for Charges Agency incurs in respect of such Advertiser, and piglix.com reserves the right to collect payment directly from Agency or Advertiser. (d) API Partners. If Advertiser uses the Ad Service through an approved third-party service provider (an "API Partner"), Advertiser acknowledges that piglix.com cannot comply with any budget limits set by Advertiser and API Partner, and Advertiser will be responsible for all Charges incurred through an API Partner notwithstanding any budget limits. 4. CPM Makegood. For campaigns involving guaranteed CPM deliverables, if the campaign's final actual impressions are below the agreed upon levels, the parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to agree upon the conditions of a makegood flight. piglix.com cannot guarantee the delivery of auction-based deliverables so makegoods will not be available. 5.

No party will disclose another party's Confidential Information to a third party except (i) to contractors or agents who need to know it and who have agreed in writing to confidentiality obligations at least as protective as this Agreement, (ii) as required by law after using reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of such disclosure, or (iii) with the disclosing party's consent.
