Do not use type below 7 points as as it makes it almost impossible to read.
Although we will pay close attention to every ad that we receive, we are not responsible for how an ad will look if it is sent incomplete or incorrectly.
Advertiser agrees to pay for advertising in advance of publication unless other payment arrangements have been made and are contracted on insertion order. Publisher will not be liable of any error in advertisement to a greater extent than the cost of the space occupied by the item in advertisement. Publisher reserves the right to reject any copy deemed inappropriate for this publication. Past due accounts are subject to 21% per annum (1.75% per month) on unpaid balance. In the event of non-payment, publisher shall have the right to hold advertiser and/or its advertising agency jointly liable for such monies as are due and payable to publisher. Payment by advertiser to its advertising agency will not constitute payment to publisher unless payment is actually received by the publisher. No discounts allowed after due date. Advertiser and its agency shall be jointly responsible for all content of advertisement including text, illustrations, trademarks, and any other matter, and shall defend, indemnify and hold publisher harmless from and against any loss, expense or other liability resulting from any claims or suits for libel, violation of rights of privacy, plagiarism, copyright infringement and any other claim or suit that may arise out of the publication of such advertisements. Advertiser and agency are presumed to have read this contract and agreed to its terms and conditions without further notice.
