You are and shall remain the owner of all accounts with Advertising Platforms. Adbucha is not a party to the financial relationship between you and the Advertising Platforms. Any fees charged by Adbucha are for its software and Service offerings only. Individual Advertising Platforms may provide financial incentives, sales contests and other incentive programs to Adbucha on the basis of customer satisfaction, ad spend under management, and/or other key metrics influenced by the Adbucha software and Service, and Customer Data is a part of these calculations.

(b) the Customer warrants that it is entitled to grant Adbucha access to the relevant personal data so that Adbucha may lawfully process the personal data in accordance with this agreement on the Customer’s behalf; and

In addition, all content published on the Site belongs to Adbucha and/or its licensors under applicable copyright law.
6. Third Party Interactions
During use of the Service, you may enter into correspondence with, or purchase or sign up to receive goods and/or services from, a third party, or you may participate in promotions of advertisers or sponsors showing their goods and/or services through the Service. Any such activity, and any terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such activity, are solely between you and the applicable third party. Adbucha and its licensors shall have no liability, obligation or responsibility for any such correspondence, purchase or promotion between you and any such third party, including any termination by such third party of their provision of goods or services to you. Adbucha does not endorse any sites on the Internet that are linked through the Service and does not endorse any third party goods or services that are made available to you as a result of your use of the Service. Adbucha provides these links to you only as a matter of convenience, and in no event shall Adbucha or its licensors be responsible for any content, products, or other materials on or available from such sites. Adbucha provides the Service to you pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. You recognize, however, that certain third-party providers of ancillary software, hardware or services may require your agreement to additional or different license or other terms prior to your use of or access to such software, hardware or services. Service features that interoperate with the Google AdWords, Microsoft adCenter, Facebook Ads or other third party programs depend on the continuing availability of the Google AdWords, Microsoft adCenter, Facebook Ads or other third party, as the case may be, application programming interface (“API”) and program for use with the Services. If Google Inc. or its affiliates (“Google”), Microsoft, Inc. or its affiliates (“Microsoft”), Facebook, Inc. or its affiliates (“Facebook”), or any other applicable third party ceases to make the Google AdWords API or program, Microsoft adCenter API or program, Facebook Ads API or program, or other third party API or program, as the case may be, available on reasonable terms for the Services, Adbucha may cease providing such Service features and you shall have no payment obligations to Adbucha with respect to such Service features for periods following such cessation.
7. Charges and Payment of Fees
You shall pay all fees or charges to your account in accordance with the fees, charges, and billing terms in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable. The initial charges will be equal to the current price of the chosen edition of the Service at the fee currently in effect. All fees based off of PPC spend shall be based upon your aggregate PPC spend across all search engine marketing programs managed by Adbucha, including without limitation Google AdWords, Microsoft adCenter and Facebook Ads. All payments must be made in advance. Payments may be made on a monthly, annual or one-time basis, and amounts owed are payable via automated recurring credit card payment or electronic invoices. All payment obligations are non-cancelable and all amounts paid are non-refundable. You must provide Adbucha with a valid credit card or annual or one-time prepayment as a condition to signing up for the Service. You hereby represent that you are authorized to provide any credit card you use to sign up for the Service. An authorized License Administrator may adjust the Service edition by executing an additional written Order Confirmation or using the web-based customer administration system within the Adbucha product if it applies. Changes to the Service edition will result in an adjustment to your fees, and will be subject to the following: (i) the term for the new fees and new Service edition will be coterminous with the preexisting License Term (either Initial Term or Renewal Term, as the case may be); (ii) Service fees will be the then current, generally applicable license fee; (iii) any fee increase that results from changes made in the middle of a billing month will be charged in full on a pro-rated basis for the portion of the billing month following such change; and (iv) any fee reduction that results from changes made in the middle of a billing month will not take effect until the next billing month and no partial refunds will be given. Adbucha reserves the right to modify its fees and charges and to introduce new charges at any time, upon at least 30 days prior notice to you, which notice may be provided by e-mail. All pricing terms are the confidential information of Adbucha, and you agree not to disclose them to any third party.
8. Billing and Renewal
Adbucha charges and collects in advance for use of the Service. Adbucha will automatically renew your subscription as described below, and bill your credit card or submit electronic invoices as mutually agreed upon. The renewal charge will be equal to the Service fee in effect during the prior term, unless Adbucha has given you at least 30 days prior written notice of a fee increase, which shall be effective upon renewal and thereafter. Fees for other services will be charged on an as-quoted basis. Adbucha’s fees are exclusive of all taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities, and you shall be responsible for payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties, excluding only United States (federal or state) taxes based solely on Adbucha’s income. You agree to provide Adbucha with complete and accurate billing and contact information. This information includes your legal company name, street address, e-mail address, and name and telephone number of an authorized billing contact and License Administrator. You agree to update this information within 30 days of any change to it. If the contact information you have provided is false or fraudulent, Adbucha reserves the right to terminate your access to the Service in addition to any other legal remedies. All invoices and payments to Adbucha will be in US $. If you believe your invoice is incorrect, you must contact Adbucha in writing within 45 days of the date of the invoice setting forth details regarding the inaccuracy to be eligible to receive an adjustment or credit.
9. Non-Payment and Suspension
In addition to any other rights granted to Adbucha herein, Adbucha reserves the right to suspend or terminate this Agreement and your access to the Service if your account becomes delinquent (falls into arrears). Delinquent invoices (accounts in arrears) are subject to interest of 1.5% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less, plus all expenses of collection. You will continue to be charged for the Service during any period of suspension. If you or Adbucha initiates termination of this Agreement, you will be obligated to pay the balance due on your account for the applicable Initial Term or Renewal Term, as the case may be, computed in accordance with the Charges and Payment of Fees section above. You agree that Adbucha may charge such unpaid fees to your credit card or otherwise bill you for such unpaid fees. Adbucha reserves the right to impose a reconnection fee in the event you are suspended and thereafter request access to the Service. You agree and acknowledge that Adbucha has no obligation to retain Customer Data or Customer Content and that such Customer Data and Customer Content may be irretrievably deleted if your account is 30 days or more delinquent.
10. Term
This Agreement commences on the Start Date. For all editions or versions of the product, the “Initial Term” will be as you elect during the online subscription process or as otherwise mutually agreed upon in the Order Confirmation. Upon the expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement will automatically renew for successive renewal terms equal in duration to the Initial Term (or one year, if the Initial Term is greater than one year) (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless either party gives Sufficient Written Notice or unless earlier terminated as set forth in this Agreement. “Sufficient Written Notice” will be thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or applicable Renewal Term, unless otherwise agreed in the Order Confirmation.

The following sections shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement: 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10 and 13 – 24.
11. Termination for Cause
Any breach of your payment or other material obligations or unauthorized use of the Adbucha Technology or Service will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement.
