Banner Terms and Conditions

  1. Product Summary. The Banner Product allows Customers to take advantage of valuable advertising space on mobile devices. There are 2 types of Banner Products that can be purchased:
    • Category Banners: These will be associated with the category the user searched (e.g., a restaurant banner will appear when the user searches for restaurants in their area). These will be sold per heading, per market.
    • Site Banners: These will appear in open inventory spots throughout the mobile application and are available per market.
  2. Product Market. The Banner Product is available for up to 4 local Customers in each market, depending on heading. The market for the local Category or Site Banner Product is determined principally by reference to the geographic scope of goguide directory. As between the Category and Site Banner, Category Banners, when available, will display first with Category Banner Customers rotating so as to have an equal chance of being first over time. Site Banners will appear only if there are no Category Banners sold into that heading and market. Product Detail-Variants. The Category Banner Product covers only the specified Category Banner business heading and common synonyms and other variants of that business heading, as determined by Publisher. Example: In the case of the Category Banner Product for the "Insurance-Automobile" business heading for the Sydney goguide directory, if a user searches for "car insurance" in "Melbourne", the Category Banner client should appear, in rotation of share purchase percentage rate, in the featured display location within the search results.
  3. Product Detail - Additional Search Terms. A Category Banner will not necessarily be returned when a user includes another search term in combination with the Category Banner Product business heading. Example: In the case of the Category Banner Product purchased in the "Insurance-Automobile" heading, if a user searches "Renters Insurance" the Customer's Category Banner will not appear in rotation. If no Category Banners have been sold in an associated heading to "Renters Insurance" a Site or other banner will appear in the featured display location.
  4. Product Detail - Overlapping Markets. In some cases there will be some overlap of the geographic scope of Goguide directories. When a user searches a location which is in the overlapping area, the Category Banner clients for each of the overlapping directories will be a "best match". In that event, one of the Category Banner Customers in the overlapping directory markets will be randomly selected for display. The expectation is that all "best matches," i.e., all Category Banner clients in the overlapping markets, will have an equal chance of being displayed in the featured display positions over time
  5. Mobile Devices. The Banner Product will be displayed on Android™, iPhone®, Windows® Phone 7, and mobile web. The Banner Product will not be displayed on certain other devices. Publisher shall not be liable for any default or delay in performance of any of its obligations under this agreement if such default or delay is caused by the failure of certain mobile devices to display the Banner Product or failure of service of a mobile device. Publisher does not guarantee availability of mobile device service or access to the network. iPhone is a trademark of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries.
