The following terms are effective from: 20 October 2022.

Horizon Guides permits use of the service and interface by the Customer on the basis of this Agreement. By checking the box confirming acceptance of this Agreement, the Customer agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

1. Services

Horizon Guides provides a digital advertising product, accessed by the Customer via an online dashboard interface (“Service”). Horizon Guides allows readers to click from the Horizon Guides platform to visit the Customer’s website. Customers are charged on a cost per click basis for the clicks sent to the Customer’s website.

In order to fulfil the Service, Horizon Guides shall publish listings on the Customer’s behalf. Such listings include company profiles and product listings. The data and information in the listings constitute the “Content” provided by the Customer. Such Content may be published on the Horizon Guides platform and distributed via third party sites (“Partner Network”) via embeddable widgets.

Horizon Guides shall publish and display the Customer’s Content for as long as the Customer has an active campaign, and/or, once the Customer’s predetermined budget has been reached.

Horizon Guides will provide accurate reports on campaign performance, including the number of clicks generated during each invoicing period. Horizon Guides’ click reports will provide the sole basis of any usage statements and fees accrued by the Customer in each period.

2. Content

The Customer permits Horizon Guides to distribute and publish Content on the platform. Such Content includes:

i. Customer’s business name, taglines, logo, company description;

ii. Customer’s location(s) of operation and nature of activities offered;

iv. URLs relevant to the Customer’s homepage and/or individual product pages on Customer’s website;

v. Images related to Customer’s business and/or products.

The Customer grants Horizon Guides permission to publish and distribute the above Content in the fulfilment of the Horizon Guides Service.

Horizon Guides will not make routine checks on the copyright of any Content provided by the Customer. The Customer is wholly responsible for establishing the ownership, copyright and legality of use for all Content provided to Horizon Guides.

The Customer is exclusively responsible for ensuring the proper functioning of the Customer’s website and any URLs provided. The Customer may update their URLs or Content at any time. Clicks sent to non-functioning URLs will be billed as normal.
