Terms for advertisers

Draft: have this reviewed before selling ads.

1. Scope

These terms apply to all bookings of ad spaces (“tiles”) on shrinkfold.com between Gerald Neubauer (“we”) and the advertiser. Bookings are reserved for businesses (entrepreneurs within the meaning of § 14 German Civil Code); by booking, the advertiser confirms acting as a business. Deviating terms of the advertiser do not apply. The German version of these terms is legally binding.

2. Contract

The online booking is an offer by the advertiser. The contract is concluded when we approve the ad, which we confirm by email. The price is due on booking. If we reject an ad, we refund the full amount.

3. Service

We display the ad during the booked period in the ad spaces of the tool pages of shrinkfold.com – for local tiles and job posts to visitors whose location, approximated from their IP address, lies within the booked radius; for country-wide tiles to visitors from the booked country. Location detection is inherently approximate. Per region and period we sell at most three slots per ad type (country-wide: two); ads rotate. We do not owe a specific number of views, clicks or results. Views and clicks are counted as described on the advertising page and shown in the account page.

4. Content and responsibility

The advertiser is solely responsible for the content, image and landing page of the ad and warrants holding all necessary rights and complying with applicable law and our ad guidelines. The advertiser indemnifies us against third-party claims arising from the ad, including reasonable legal costs.

5. Review, rejection, removal

We review every ad before publication and may reject it without giving reasons, in which case we refund the full amount. If a running ad or its landing page violates these terms, the guidelines or the law, we may remove it immediately without refund.

6. Prices and payment

The prices shown at booking apply. No VAT is charged (German small business scheme, § 19 UStG). Payment is made in advance via our payment provider Stripe. Invoices are sent electronically by email.

7. Changes by the advertiser

The advertiser can change text, image and link in the account page. Every change is reviewed again; the ad pauses until approval and the paused days are added to the end of the runtime.

8. Early termination

The advertiser can stop a running ad at any time in the account page. Amounts already paid are not refunded pro rata.

9. Availability

We aim for continuous availability of the website. Short outages do not entitle to a reduction. If the ad is not visible for more than 24 consecutive hours due to an outage we are responsible for, we extend the runtime accordingly.

10. Liability

We are liable without limitation for intent, gross negligence and injury to life, body or health. For slightly negligent breach of essential contractual obligations, liability is limited to the typical, foreseeable damage, at most the order value. Otherwise liability is excluded.

11. Chargebacks

In the event of an unjustified chargeback we may stop the ad immediately and charge the fees incurred.

12. Data protection

See our privacy policy.

13. Final provisions

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Place of jurisdiction, where permitted, is Munich. Should a provision be invalid, the remainder of the contract remains valid.
