CJ Affiliate Publisher Service Agreement

Introduction

This Publisher Service Agreement ("Agreement") is made by and agreed to between Commission Junction LLC (“CJ”), located at 530 East Montecito Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93103, USA, and you ("You"). As an application service provider, CJ facilitates "Performance Marketing Programs" by providing services ("Network Service") via the Internet. A "Performance Marketing Program" ("Program") is where a person, entity, affiliate or its agent, operating "Web site(s)" (internet domain, or a portion of a domain) and/or other promotional methods to drive traffic to another's Web site or Web site content ("Publisher") may earn financial compensation ("Payouts") for "Transactions" (actions by Visitors as defined by the Advertiser) referred by such Publisher via an action made by a "Visitor" (any person or entity that is not the Publisher or the Publisher's agent) through an Internet connection ("Link") to a Web site or Web site content operated by another person or entity ("Advertiser") from an Advertiser authorized promotional method used by such Publisher. The Advertiser compensates the Publisher, in accordance with this Agreement and the Program Payout specifications.

1. Participation in Programs.

(a) Acceptance by Advertiser. During this Agreement You may apply to Advertiser Programs for the opportunity to earn Payouts by promoting Advertisers in accordance with the Advertiser's Program terms and complying with this Agreement. Upon approval by the Advertiser for acceptance into its Program, You may display (and remove) Links to Advertiser's Web site or Web site content in accordance with the Advertiser's Program terms and this Agreement. An Advertiser's acceptance of You extends only to the entity, or individual, that enters into this Agreement with CJ.

(b) Program Terms. The details of an Advertiser's Program shall be available through the Network Service. Transactions qualifying for a Payout are defined by the Advertiser. Advertisers may change Program Terms, including Payout rates, at any time upon written notice through the Network Service.

(c) Additional Terms. Publishers and Advertisers may enter into direct contractual relationships through a click-through agreement hosted by CJ and/or other agreement(s) (“Click-through Agreement”). It is Your obligation to review and to either accept or decline such Click-through Agreement when one is presented to You. If accepted by You, compliance with the Click-through Agreement, as applicable, is solely Your responsibility. The terms and conditions of the Click-through Agreement, as applicable, shall apply only with respect to Your relationship with that particular Advertiser. Nothing contained in a Click-through Agreement, as applicable, may conflict with the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. In the case of such conflict, this Agreement shall control.

(d) Prohibited Uses of Links.

(i) Locations. You may not place Links to an Advertiser's Web site or Web site content in third party newsgroups, message boards, blogs, unsolicited email and other types of spam, link farms, counters, chatrooms, or guestbooks. Publishers using IRC channels, instant messages or similar Internet resources must designate their program as special requiring manual review and acceptance by the Advertiser.

(ii) Non-Bona Fide Transactions. You must promote Advertisers such that You do not mislead the Visitor, and such that the Links deliver bona fide Transactions by the Visitor to Advertiser from the Link. You shall not cause any Transactions to be made that are not in good faith, including, but not limited to, using any device, program, robot, Iframes, or hidden frames. You may or may not be compensated for Transactions where You or Your agent are the Visitor. Multiple Leads from the same individual, entity or IP address may be considered non-bona fide Transactions. You shall not earn Payouts for non-bona fide Transactions.

(iii) Infringement. None of Your promotional activities may infringe an Advertiser's proprietary rights (including but not limited to trademark rights), CJ's proprietary rights, or a third party's proprietary rights.

(e) Updating Links. If Links to Advertiser are not dynamically updated through the Network Service, upon notification You are obligated to update an Advertiser's Links in order to earn Payouts.

(f) Emails. You hereby understand, acknowledge and accept that CJ, CJ systems, CJ partners' systems and/or third party systems may and has/have the right granted by You to send emails and other communications to You on behalf of CJ, Advertisers, and other CJ partners and affiliates, including solicitation and service solicitation emails. You may have the ability to change some of Your email settings and preferences.

2. Publisher Obligations to CJ.

(a) Accurate, Up-to-Date Information. You agree to provide CJ and Advertiser with accurate information about You and Your promotional methods, and to maintain up-to-date “Account” information (such as contact information, Web sites used, etc.). In Your Account, You must accurately, clearly and completely describe all promotional methods by selecting the appropriate descriptions and providing additional information when necessary. Some promotional methods will be designated by the system as “special”. Special programs are linked to promotional methods and practices considered unique and require manual approval and acceptance by the Advertiser. CJ reserves the right to define any program as special.

(b) Use of Links. You represent and warrant that all promotional means used by You will not contain objectionable content (including but not limited to content that is misleading, libelous, defamatory, obscene, violent, bigoted, hate-oriented, illegal, and/or promoting illegal goods, services or activities), and that You will not mislead others. You agree to: (i) use ethical and legal business practices, (ii) comply with the Advertisers' Program terms and this Agreement, (iii) maintain a privacy policy on Your Web site and for any non-Web site based promotional method made available to Visitors, and (iv) designate Your Publisher Account as “special” if You promote an Advertiser(s) by any means other than displaying a Link to the Advertiser on Your Web site. CJ must approve all of Your promotional activities and may deem Your promotional activities inappropriate and a material breach of this Agreement in CJ's sole discretion. Our network quality department reviews publisher conduct and any suspected fraudulent, abusive or otherwise illegal content or activity by You through Your promotional methods, or that is perpetrated through use of the Network Service, is grounds for immediate termination of this Agreement or deactivation of Your Account.

(c) Promotional Methods. You represent and warrant that You will not engage in and/or facilitate spamming, indiscriminate advertising or unsolicited commercial email or otherwise fail to comply with the CAN SPAM Act of 2003 (Public Law 108-187 or any successor legislation), and/or any other laws and/ or regulations that govern email marketing and/or communications. You represent and warrant that You will not engage in pop-up or pop-under advertising using any means involving third party properties and/or services (software). Pop up/unders are acceptable on a first party basis only when triggered by Your site content /site visit or by downloadable software applications for which You are the owner/operator. Software may not be used to force clicks, perform redirects without an affirmative click by a user, or pop over pay-per-click listings or natural search results. Software-based activity must honor the CJ Affiliate Software Publishers Policy requirements (as such requirements may be modified from time to time), including but not limited to: (i) installation requirements, (ii) enduser agreement requirements, (iii) afsrc=1 requirements, (iv) requirements prohibiting usurpation of a Transaction that might otherwise result in a Payout to another Publisher (e.g. by purposefully detecting and forcing a subsequent click-through on a link of the same Advertiser) and (v) non-interference with competing advertiser/ publisher referrals.

(d) Directly Identifiable Information of Visitors. You represent and warrant that You will not enable the Tracking Code to collect directly identifiable information of Visitors that would allow CJ to directly identify Visitors.

(e) Privacy. You must conspicuously post Your privacy policy on Your Web site and otherwise make it available to all Visitors. Your privacy policy must comply with all laws and regulations regarding the privacy of Visitor information, be commercially reasonable, and fully and accurately disclose Your collection and use of Visitor information. You must fully and accurately disclose Your use of third party technology, including CJ's tracking technology, use of cookies and options for discontinuing use of such cookies.

(f) Applicable Codes and Code Maintenance. In order for CJ to record the tracking of Visitors' Transactions resulting from clicks on Links to Advertisers promoted by You, You must include and maintain a CJ “Tracking Code” within the Advertiser's Links. All Advertiser Links and all advertisements ("Ad Content") must be in a Network Service compatible format.

(g) Usage and Security of Account. You shall be responsible for all usage and activity on Your account and for loss, theft or unauthorized disclosure of Your password (other than through CJ's negligent or willful conduct or omission). You shall provide CJ with prompt written notification of any known or suspected unauthorized use of Your Account or breach of the security of Your Account.

3. CJ's Services.

(a) Tracking Transactions and Payouts. CJ shall determine (where possible) actual Payouts that should be credited to Your Account. CJ may, in CJ's sole discretion, apply an estimated amount of Payouts, if: (i) You are referring Visitors to Advertiser as verified by clicks through Links to Advertiser with CJ Tracking Code, (ii) where there is an error in Advertiser's transmission of Tracking Code data to CJ, and (iii) where CJ is able to utilize a historical analysis of Your promotion of Advertiser to determine an equitable amount of estimated Payouts.

(b) Charge-backs. An Advertiser may apply, or CJ may apply, a debit to Your Account in an amount equal to a Payout previously credited to Your Account in circumstances of : (i) product returns; (ii) duplicate entry or other clear error; (iii) non-bona fide Transactions; (iv) non-receipt of payment from, or refund of payment to, the Visitor by the Advertiser; or (v) Publisher failure to comply with Advertiser's Program terms or other agreement with Advertiser ("Charge-back"). Charge-backs may be applied to Your Account at any time, including previous payment cycles.

(c) Access to Tracking and Reporting Tools. CJ shall provide You with access to tracking and reporting tools, and to support services. From time to time CJ may offer optional services for a fee. Fees for such optional services are at CJ's then-current published rates or as may be quoted by CJ, and are payable in advance or may be off-set against Your positive Account balance (at CJ's discretion). Tracking detail regarding Visitor Transactions is not available on a real-time basis for all Advertisers and there may be reporting delays regarding Transactions for some Advertisers. CJ may make available, for fees that CJ shall publish from time-to-time, enhanced reporting capabilities and other services that are not included in the standard Network Service.

(d) Support. Support for your program is available on-line through the "Contact Us" area in the CJ Account Manager, which allows You to categorize and describe Your issue. Online help also allows You to check the status of all issues through the "Check Question Status" feature. Phone support may also be available during operating hours, except holidays.

(e) Facilitating Payment of Payouts. Subject to other provisions in this Agreement, CJ shall credit Your Account with a Payout for each qualifying Transaction in accordance with the Advertiser's Payout rate and Program terms for the relevant Transaction. On or about the 20th day of each calendar month, CJ will issue to You any positive balance in Your Account for Transactions reported for the previous month, provided Your Account balance exceeds the required “Minimum Account Balance.” CJ shall have no obligation to make payment of any Payouts for which CJ has not received payment from the relevant Advertiser of all monies due to CJ (including for all Payouts owed by such Advertiser to all of such Advertiser's Publishers). You agree that CJ has the right, but not the obligation, to seek on behalf of You any and all amounts due from Advertisers, including, but not limited to Payouts. If CJ elects, in its own discretion, not to make payment to You for amounts not received from an Advertiser, those amounts shall not be included in the Minimum Balance Amount. Your recourse for any earned Payouts not paid to You shall be to make a claim against the relevant Advertiser(s), and CJ disclaims any and all liability for such payment. You may elect to receive payment in any of the currencies that CJ supports (as may be amended by CJ). The conversion rate shall be determined in accordance with CJ's operating standards. CJ has the right to assess service fees in order to process or stop your payment as necessary. The number or amount of Transactions, credits for Payouts, and debits for Charge-backs, as calculated by CJ, shall be final and binding on You.

(f) Dormant Accounts. If Publisher's Account has not been credited with a valid, compensable Transaction that has not been Charged-back during any rolling, six consecutive calendar month period (“Dormant Account”), a dormant account fee at CJ's then-current rate shall be applied to Publisher's Account each calendar month that Publisher's Account remains an open yet Dormant Account or until Your Account balance reaches a zero balance, at which time the Account shall become deactivated. Transactions will not be counted if the Transaction subsequently becomes a Charge-back.

(g) Negative Accounts. You may have a negative balance if Your Account is debited amounts equivalent to previous Payouts for Charge-backs and You do not have an adequate Account balance to cover the Charge-back amounts. When You have a negative balance, You must immediately remit payment to CJ in an amount sufficient to bring Your Account to a zero balance, or Your Account is subject to 1.5% interest per month, compounded monthly.

4. Proprietary Rights.

(a) Linking to Advertisers. For each Advertiser's Program that You have been accepted to, the Advertiser is granting to You the right to display and Link to the Advertiser's Web site or Web site content in accordance with the Advertiser's Program terms for the limited purposes of Promoting the Advertiser's Program, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Your use of the Link signifies Your agreement to refrain from copying or modifying any icons, buttons, banners, graphics files or content contained in the Link, including but not limited to refraining from removing or altering any copyright or trademark notices.

(f) Data Ownership. You understand that all personally identifiable information, if any, provided by Visitors through the Tracking Code or in response to an advertisement or request for information and/or any or all reports, results, and/or information created, compiled, analyzed and/or derived by CJ from such data is the sole and exclusive property of Advertiser and CJ Companies (defined below) and is considered CJ's Confidential Information pursuant to this Agreement.

CJ Affiliate Publisher Service Agreement

Introduction

This Publisher Service Agreement ("Agreement") is made by and agreed to between Epsilon International UK Ltd (company number 03610044) located at 1st Floor, 2 Television Centre, 101 Wood Lane, London W12 7FR, United Kingdom ("CJ"), and you ("You"). For purposes of this Agreement, any references to "CJ Companies" shall refer to CJ, its parent and any divisions, subsidiaries and affiliates of CJ. CJ has created, developed and installed a system by which it has developed a suite of services which enables Advertisers to launch and manage Affiliate Marketing Programs or Campaigns on the internet via the Commission Junction Platform ("Network Service"). A "Performance Marketing Program" ("Program") is where a person, entity, affiliate or its agent, operating "Website(s)" (internet domain, or a portion of a domain) and/or other promotional methods to drive traffic to another's Website or Website content ("Publisher") may earn financial compensation ("Payouts") for "Transactions" (actions by Visitors as defined by the Advertiser) referred by such Publisher via an action made by a "Visitor" (any person or entity that is not the Publisher or the Publisher's agent) through an Internet connection ("Link") to a Website or Website content operated by another person or entity ("Advertiser") from an Advertiser authorised promotional method used by such Publisher. The Advertiser compensates the Publisher, in accordance with this Agreement and the Program Payout specifications.

For the purposes of this Agreement, all references to "business days" shall be references to a day (other than a Saturday or a Sunday or public holiday in England and Wales) on which clearing banks are open for business in England and Wales.

1. Participation in Programs.

(a) Acceptance by Advertiser. During this Agreement You may apply to Advertiser Programs for the opportunity to earn Payouts by promoting Advertisers in accordance with the Advertiser's Program terms and complying with this Agreement. Upon approval by the Advertiser for acceptance into its Program, You may display (and remove) Links to Advertiser's Website or Website content in accordance with the Advertiser's Program terms and this Agreement. An Advertiser's acceptance of You extends only to the entity, or individual, that enters into this Agreement with CJ.

(b) Program Terms. The details of an Advertiser's Program shall be available through the Network Service. Transactions qualifying for a Payout are defined by the Advertiser. Advertisers may change Program Terms, including Payout rates, at any time upon written notice through the Network Service.

(c) Additional Terms. Publishers and Advertisers may enter into direct contractual relationships through the "apply to join" process in the form of a click-through agreement hosted by CJ ("Click-through Agreement") or in the form of an offer made to You by Advertiser via the members' area on the Network Service ("Offer"). It is Your obligation to review and accept or decline a Click-through Agreement or Offer when such is presented to You. If accepted by You, compliance with the Click-through Agreement or Offer is solely Your responsibility. The terms and conditions of the Click-through Agreement or Offer may supersede or conflict with this Agreement and shall apply only with respect to Your relationship with that particular Advertiser.

(d) Prohibited Uses of Links.

(i) Locations. You may not place Links to an Advertiser's Website or Website content in third party newsgroups, message boards, blogs, unsolicited email and other types of spam, link farms, counters, chatrooms, or guestbooks. Publishers using IRC channels, instant messages or similar Internet resources must designate their program as special requiring manual review and acceptance by the Advertiser.

(ii) Non-Bona Fide Transactions. You must promote Advertisers such that You do not mislead the Visitor, and such that the Links deliver bona fide Transactions by the Visitor to Advertiser from the Link. You shall not cause any Transactions to be made that are not in good faith, including, but not limited to, using any device, program, robot, Iframes, or hidden frames. Unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Advertiser, You will not be compensated for Transactions where You or Your agent are the Visitor. Multiple Leads from the same individual, entity or IP address may be considered non-bona fide Transactions. You shall not earn Payouts for non-bona fide Transactions.

(iii) Infringement. None of Your promotional activities may infringe an Advertiser's proprietary rights (including but not limited to trademark rights), CJ's proprietary rights, or a third party's proprietary rights.

(e) Updating Links. If Links to Advertiser are not dynamically updated through the Network Service, upon notification You are obligated to update an Advertiser's Links in order to earn Payouts.

(f) Emails. You hereby understand, acknowledge and accept that CJ, CJ systems, CJ partners' systems and/or third party systems may and has/have the right granted by You to send emails and other communications to You on behalf of CJ, Advertisers, and other CJ partners and affiliates, including solicitation and service solicitation emails. You may have the ability to change some of Your email settings and preferences.

2. Publisher Obligations to CJ.

(a) Accurate, Up-to-Date Information. You agree to provide CJ and Advertiser with accurate information about You and Your promotional methods, and to maintain up-to-date "Account" information (such as contact information, Websites used, etc.). In Your Account, You must accurately, clearly and completely describe all promotional methods by selecting the appropriate descriptions and providing additional information when necessary. Some promotional methods will be designated by the system as "special". Special programs are linked to promotional methods and practices considered unique and require manual approval and acceptance by the Advertiser. CJ reserves the right to define any program as special.

(b) Use of Links. You represent and warrant that all promotional means used by You will not contain objectionable content in any jurisdiction where it is used/viewed (including but not limited to content that is misleading, libelous, defamatory, obscene, violent, bigoted, hate-oriented, illegal, and/or promoting illegal goods, services or activities), and that You will not mislead others. You agree to: (i) use ethical and legal business practices, (ii) comply with the Advertisers' Program terms and this Agreement, (iii) maintain a publicly-available privacy policy on Your Website that satisfies the requirements of Section 2(e) below and obtain consent for CJ's Cookies in accordance with Section 6(i), and (iv) designate Your Publisher Account as "special" if You promote an Advertiser(s) by any means other than displaying a Link to the Advertiser on Your Website. Your promotional activities must have been approved in advance by CJ, who may deem Your promotional activities inappropriate and a material breach of this Agreement in CJ's sole discretion. Our network quality department reviews publisher conduct and any suspected fraudulent, abusive or otherwise illegal content or activity by You through Your promotional methods, or that is perpetrated through use of the Network Service, is grounds for immediate termination of this Agreement or deactivation of Your Account (at the sole discretion of CJ).

(c) Promotional Methods. You represent and warrant that You will not engage in and/or facilitate spamming, indiscriminate advertising or unsolicited commercial email or otherwise fail to comply with including but not limited to the Directive on Privacy and Electronic Communications (2002/58/EC), the Electronic Signatures Directive (1999/93/EC), the Electronic Commerce Directive (2000/31/EC), the Distance Contracts Directive 97/7/EC, the Data Protection Acts 1988 - 2003 and Directive 95/46/EU, any other EU Regulations, Directives, Decisions or Guidelines on data protection or data privacy and guidance issued by the Data Protection Commissioner of Ireland, (or any successor legislation) as may be implemented into national law/regulations, laws and/ the e-Privacy Directive or any national implementation of it (EU Directive 2002/58/EC or any successor legislation) as amended by Directive 2009/136/EC, and/or any other laws and/ or regulations that govern email marketing and/or communications. You represent and warrant that You will not engage in pop-up or pop-under advertising using any means involving third party properties and/or services (software). Pop up/unders are acceptable on a first party basis only when triggered by Your site content /site visit or by downloadable software applications for which You are the owner/operator. Software may not be used to force clicks, perform redirects without an affirmative click by a user, or pop over pay-per-click listings or natural search results. Software-based activity must honour the CJ Affiliate Software Publishers Policy requirements (as such requirements may be modified from time to time), including but not limited to: (i) installation requirements, (ii) end-user agreement requirements, (iii) afsrc=1 requirements, (iv) requirements prohibiting usurpation of a Transaction that might otherwise result in a Payout to another Publisher (e.g. by purposefully detecting and forcing a subsequent click-through on a link of the same Advertiser) and (v) non-interference with competing advertiser/ publisher referrals.

(d) Identifiability of Visitors. You represent and warrant that You will not enable the Tracking Code to collect any information that will enable CJ to identify Visitors directly (for example, by disclosing a Visitor's name or personal contact details).

(e) Privacy. You must conspicuously post Your privacy policy on Your Website and otherwise make it available to all Visitors. Your privacy policy must comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding the processing of Visitors' personal data, and fully and accurately disclose the collection, processing and disclosure of Visitor personal data by you or your behalf. You must fully and accurately disclose (and where necessary obtained consent for) Your use of third party technology, including CJ's tracking technology, use of cookies and options for discontinuing use of such cookies in accordance with Section 6.

(f) Applicable Codes and Code Maintenance. In order for CJ to record the tracking of Visitors' Transactions resulting from clicks on Links to Advertisers promoted by You, You must include and maintain a CJ "Tracking Code" within the Advertiser's Links. All Advertiser Links and all advertisements ("Ad Content") must be in a Network Service compatible format.

(g) Usage and Security of Account. You shall be responsible for all usage and activity on Your account and for loss, theft or unauthorised disclosure of Your password (other than through CJ's negligent or willful conduct or omission). You shall provide CJ with prompt written notification of any known or suspected unauthorised use of Your Account or breach of the security of Your Account.

3. CJ's Services.

(a) Tracking Transactions and Payouts. CJ shall determine (where possible) actual Payouts that should be credited to Your Account. CJ may, in CJ's sole discretion, apply an estimated amount of Payouts, if: (i) You are referring Visitors to Advertiser as verified by clicks through Links to Advertiser with CJ Tracking Code, (ii) where there is an error in Advertiser's transmission of Tracking Code data to CJ, and (iii) where CJ is able to utilise an historical analysis of Your promotion of Advertiser to determine an equitable amount of estimated Payouts.

(b) Charge-backs. An Advertiser may apply, or CJ may apply, a debit to Your Account in an amount equal to a Payout previously credited to Your Account in circumstances of : (i) product returns; (ii) duplicate entry or other clear error; (iii) non-bona fide Transactions; (iv) non-receipt of payment from, or refund of payment to, the Visitor by the Advertiser; (v) Publisher failure to comply with Advertiser's Program terms or other agreement with Advertiser; or (vi) where any Payouts calculated in accordance with Clause 3(a) (ii) or (iii) subsequently transpire to be in excess of the amount that was actually due to You ("Charge-back"). Charge-backs may be applied to Your Account at any time, including previous payment cycles.

(c) Access to Tracking and Reporting Tools. CJ shall provide You with access to tracking and reporting tools, and to support services. From time to time CJ may offer optional services for a fee. Fees for such optional services are at CJ's then-current published rates or as may be quoted by CJ, and are payable in advance or may be off-set against Your positive Account balance (at CJ's discretion). Tracking detail regarding Visitor Transactions is not available on a real-time basis for all Advertisers and there may be reporting delays regarding Transactions for some Advertisers. CJ may make available, for fees that CJ shall publish from time-to-time, enhanced reporting capabilities and other services that are not included in the standard Network Service.

(d) Support. Support for your program is available on-line through the "Contact Us" area in the CJ Account Manager, which allows You to categorise and describe Your issue. Online help also allows You to check the status of all issues through the "Check Question Status" feature. Phone support may also be available during operating hours on business days.

(e) Facilitating Payment of Payouts. Subject to other provisions in this Agreement, CJ shall credit Your Account with a Payout for each qualifying Transaction in accordance with the Advertiser's Payout rate and Program terms for the relevant Transaction. On the 20th business day of each calendar month, CJ will issue to You any positive balance in Your Account for Transactions reported for the previous month, provided Your Account balance exceeds the required "Minimum Account Balance." CJ shall have no obligation to make payment of any Payouts for which CJ has not received payment from the relevant Advertiser of all monies due to CJ (including for all Payouts owed by such Advertiser to all of such Advertiser's Publishers). You agree that CJ has the right, but not the obligation, to seek on behalf of You any and all amounts due from Advertisers, including, but not limited to Payouts. If CJ elects, in its own discretion, not to make payment to You for amounts not received from an Advertiser, those amounts shall not be included in the Minimum Balance Amount. Your recourse for any earned Payouts not paid to You shall be to make a claim against the relevant Advertiser(s), and CJ disclaims any and all liability for such payment. You may elect to receive payment in any of the currencies that CJ supports (as may be amended by CJ). The conversion rate shall be determined in accordance with CJ's operating standards. CJ has the right to assess service fees as necessary in order to process your payment. The number or amount of Transactions, credits for Payouts, and debits for Charge-backs, as calculated by CJ, shall be final and binding on You.

(f) Dormant Accounts. If Publisher's Account has not been credited with a valid, compensable Transaction that has not been Charged-back during any rolling, six consecutive calendar month period ("Dormant Account"), a dormant account fee at CJ's then-current rate shall be applied to Publisher's Account each calendar month that Publisher's Account remains an open yet Dormant Account or until Your Account balance reaches a zero balance, at which time the Account shall become deactivated. Transactions will not be counted if the Transaction subsequently becomes a Charge-back.

(g) Negative Accounts. You may have a negative balance if Your Account is debited amounts equivalent to previous Payouts for Charge-backs and You do not have an adequate Account balance to cover the Charge-back amounts. When You have a negative balance, You must immediately remit payment to CJ in an amount sufficient to bring Your Account to a zero balance, or Your Account is subject to 1.5% interest per month, compounded monthly.

(h) VAT. For the relevant VAT jurisdictions, CJ and Publisher hereby acknowledge and agree that CJ will provide Publisher with a value added tax ("VAT") invoice. Publisher agrees not to raise any VAT invoices with respect to the revenue or other amounts due to it pursuant to this Agreement. CJ will complete invoices showing the Publisher's address, VAT Registration number, together with all details that constitute a full VAT invoice. Publisher agrees to immediately notify CJ in the event Publisher ceases to be registered under the VAT number provided to CJ, transfers or sells its business or becomes registered under a different VAT number. In the event that the Publisher's VAT registration changes, CJ and Publisher agree to make and enter into a new, but similar agreement that addresses Publisher's VAT registration changes. In the event CJ outsources its responsibility for issuing VAT invoices under this Agreement to a third party, CJ shall notify the Publisher of such outsourcing arrangement. These terms shall run conterminously with this Agreement.

Each Party will comply with its responsibilities as a Controller under Applicable Data Protection Law in respect of its Processing of the Data.

(d) Without limiting each Party's obligation to comply with the Applicable Data Protection Law to which it is subject (in accordance with Section (c) above), the Parties agree that they shall each fulfil the specific data protection compliance responsibilities described below:

    IV)            Each Party shall: (i) maintain a prominent and publicly accessible privacy notice on their respective digital properties that satisfies the transparency and other requirements of Applicable Data Protection Law; (ii) ensure such privacy notice discloses the means by which a Data Subject can contact the Party in order to exercise its data protection rights under Applicable Data Protection Law; and (iii) identify, and only Process the Data in a manner consistent with, one or more lawful bases under Applicable Data Protection Law.

      V)            You shall implement a mechanism to obtain visitor consent on any digital properties on which You will deploy CJ Device Tracking Technologies to collect Data. Such mechanism must: (a) provide prominent notice to visitors that the digital property deploys Device Tracking Technologies operated by CJ for the Permitted Purposes; (b) provide visitors a link to CJ’s privacy notice; (c) display to visitors all necessary disclosures, and obtain all necessary consents, prior to service of the Device Tracking Technologies to the visitor; and (d) offer all necessary opt-out mechanisms; in each case as is required to comply with Applicable Data Protection Law.

    VI)            You shall ensure that, in respect of any Data that You collect and provide to CJ (that is, other than Data collected by CJ using Device Tracking Technologies on Your digital properties): (a) you collect the Data fairly and lawfully and in compliance with Applicable Data Protection Law; (b) you provide prominent notice to Data Subjects, at the point of Data collection, that their Data shall be Processed by CJ for the Permitted Purposes, and such notice shall include a link to CJ’s privacy notice; (c) You offer Data Subjects the ability to opt-out of such Processing by CJ; and (d) You will not disclose or make available to CJ any Data relating to Data Subjects that have opted-out of Processing for the Permitted Purposes. Upon request CJ shall provide You with such information as You may reasonably require about CJ’s Processing of Data under this Agreement (including the use of Device Tracking Technologies) so that You can ensure that such information is presented to Data Subjects.

(e) CJ may make available to You certain Metrics Data about visitors to Advertiser digital properties using Device Tracking Technologies. You will Process the Metrics Data solely for the purpose of performance measurement and analytics related to the services provided under this Agreement.

(f) Each Party shall, taking into account the state of the art, the cost of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purpose of Processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect the Data and Metrics Data from and against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure, or access.

(g) Each Party shall be individually responsible for responding to lawful data protection requests that it receives from Data Subjects in respect of Data and/or Metrics Data that it Processes. To the extent that either Party (the "Receiving Party") receives a request relating to Processing performed by the other Party (the "Other Party"), the Other Party shall provide such information and assistance as is reasonably necessary to the Receiving Party to enable the Receiving Party to respond to such request in accordance with Applicable Data Protection Law.

(h) In the event that either Party receives any correspondence, enquiry or complaint from a Supervisory Authority ("Correspondence") directly related to the Data and/or Metrics Data Processed under this Agreement it shall promptly inform the other Party giving details of the same, and the Parties shall cooperate reasonably and in good faith in order to respond to the Correspondence in accordance with any requirements under Applicable Data Protection Law.

(i) Neither Party shall engage in a Restricted Transfer in relation to Data or Metrics Data unless it has taken such measures as are necessary to ensure the transfer is in compliance with Applicable Data Protection Law. To the extent that Marketing Partner's disclosure of Data to, or permitted collection of Data by, Epsilon is a Restricted Transfer such Restricted Transfer shall be subject to the Data Transfer Addendum available here: https://www.cj.com/legal/model-clauses. In the event that any provision of this Agreement contradicts the Standard Contractual Clauses, the Standard Contractual Clauses shall prevail.

(j) If CJ becomes aware that any government authority (including law enforcement) wishes to obtain access to or a copy of some or all of the Data then CJ will only make available the Data to the extent CJ is legally required to do so. In no event shall CJ disclose Data in a massive, disproportionate and indiscriminate manner that goes beyond what is necessary in a democratic society. CJ shall have in place, maintain and comply with a policy governing Personal Data requests from government authorities which at minimum prohibits: (1) massive, disproportionate or indiscriminate disclosure of Personal Data; and (2) the disclosure of Personal Data without a subpoena, warrant, writ, decree, summons or other legally binding order that compels disclosure of such.

(k) This Section 6 shall survive termination or expiry of the Agreement. Upon termination or expiry of the Agreement each Party may continue to Process the Data or Metrics Data under its control provided that such Processing complies with the requirements of this Section 6 and Applicable Data Protection Law.
