Advertising Terms & Conditions In this statement of terms and conditions the term Publisher means an employee of Clark White Publications Limited or their contracted agent appointed to oversee the publication of a magazine, newspaper, brochure or any other journal published by Clark White Publications Limited and the term Advertiser means the person who books the advertising space. Advertising agencies are regarded as Advertisers and are directly responsible for the payment for all space booked on behalf of clients. Advertising orders placed with Clark White Publications Limited or their contracted agent are subject to the following conditions: 1. All advertisements submitted must comply with the British Code of Advertising Practice and they must not contravene any of the provisions of the Trades Description Act of 1968. The Advertiser warrants that the advertisements meet these conditions. 2. The Publisher will be indemnified by the Advertiser against any damage or loss or expense which the Publisher may incur as a result of the Advertiser’s announcement. 3. The Publisher has the right to refuse, amend, withdraw or adapt all advertisements submitted to him at his absolute discretion and without explanation. 4. The Publisher will not be liable for any loss or damage caused by error, late publication or the failure of an advertisement to appear from any cause whatsoever. 5. A discount offered when a series of advertisements is booked only applies when that series is completed within a year of the original booking even if the discount is included in monthly invoices. If a series should be cancelled, the Publisher has the right to level a retrospective surcharge on the Advertiser equal to the discount offered. 6. In no circumstances does the acceptance of an order for advertising space confer on the Advertiser the right to renew the order on similar terms. 7. At any time the Publisher reserves the right to increase advertising rates and to amend the Advertiser’s order and size of advertisement accordingly. In such cases the Advertiser shall have the right to cancel the balance of the contract without incurring a surcharge. 8. Cancellations, postponement of orders, and any other material changes must be notified in writing and cannot be accepted later than four weeks prior to scheduled publication date for a mono or spot colour advertisement and six weeks prior to the scheduled publication date for a full colour advertisement. Special positions booked by an Advertiser shall be held for that Advertiser (with due premium charged) until the Advertiser advises a change of requirement in writing. 9. When an Advertiser arranges inserts with the Publisher, the Publisher shall have the right to charge full rate for the inserts should they fail to arrive at the agreed place and at the agreed time for inserting to take place. 10. An Advertiser placing a mail-order or direct-response advertisement will be surcharged 1% and will be required to complete a form of undertaking laying out the Advertiser’s ability to fulfil orders. 11. An Advertiser shall have 48 hours after the placing of a verbal order in which to either cancel or postpone the booking. After this time the order shall be deemed to be booked and subject to all other terms and conditions of business. 12. All credit accounts are strictly nett and must be settled within 14 days of the publication of the advertisement. The Publisher reserves the right to suspend insertion of any advertisements should an account be overdue. Should an Advertiser fail to pay within the due time the Publisher shall levy an interest surcharge of 1.5% compounded per day on the gross rate owing beyond the due date should the sum remain wholly or partially unpaid 28 days after the date of publication. 13. Advertisers must supply copy for all advertisements without the Publisher requesting it. Should copy not be provided the Publisher reserves the right to repeat any copy from the same Advertiser which may be held. 14. If any Advertiser wishes to change the date, position or content of an advertisement, details of the changes must be supplied in writing before the copy date of the publication and the Publisher reserves the right to charge for any additional costs suffered because of such a change. 15. Copy must be supplied in the form stipulated on the rate card or colour specification sheet. The Publisher will have the right to charge for any amendments, changes, duplications or artwork necessary should copy be supplied which does not conform to the requirements laid out in the rate card or colour specification sheet. 16. The Publisher will supply a proof, when requested by the Advertiser, of an advertisement when the advertisement is new copy and that copy has been provided by the stipulated copy date. 17. The liability for insurance of artwork, copy, film, etc, shall be the Advertiser’s. The Publisher can accept no liability whatsoever for advertising material. 18. After one year the Publisher has the right to destroy all film, artwork, photographs, etc which remain in his possession unless the Advertiser stipulates in writing that the material is likely to be used again. 19. Should copy be supplied late by the Advertiser, the Publisher shall have the right to pass on any additional cost incurred to the Advertiser. 20. No advertisement shall be accepted for publication by a previous Advertiser unless all invoices outside of normal credit periods (see clause 12) have been paid in full. 21. When an Advertiser places an order, that order shall be deemed acceptance of the Terms and Conditions laid out above. |
