- Campaign Details:
- Payment: Before obtaining Redirects for Advertiser on the Trillion Network, Trillion may require a prepayment of the Account Balance (“Prepayment”) from Advertiser. Prepayment shall be a non-refundable $1,000 made via credit card through the Platform. All payments made by credit card may incur a processing fee of 2.0% – 3.5% (region depending) and/or international currency conversion rates per transaction. In the absence of a Prepayment, Trillion will charge the credit card submitted by Advertiser via the Platform once the Account Balance reaches a specific threshold as set by Trillion and as approved by Advertiser. In addition to any other rights or remedies that Trillion may have, Advertiser’s failure to pay any invoices as set forth herein may result in Trillion canceling or pausing Advertiser’s Campaigns. Further, if Advertiser fails to make any payment as set forth herein, Advertiser shall pay all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Trillion in collecting such payments. Upon the conclusion of each calendar month that the Campaign is running on the Trillion Network, the Platform will provide Advertiser with details regarding the amount of Redirects to the Advertisers Landing Pages and the amount of the Prepayment, if applicable, spent by Advertiser based on the CPV set by Advertiser in the Platform. For purposes of clarity, all payments shall be made in the currency designated by Trillion, unless otherwise agreed to in a separate writing between the parties.
- For each Campaign, the parties will agree to be charged on a CPV model where the CPV rate per Redirect is deducted from the Campaign Budget. Except as otherwise set forth herein, all Redirects are inclusive of all costs associated with running a Campaign on the Trillion Network, including, without limitation, all data, tech, ad serving, brand safety, and auction costs.
- Trillion may at any time during the Term, in its sole discretion, grant Advertiser a credit line. If Advertiser is given a credit line, Trillion shall send Advertiser an invoice setting out the charges for such month and the balance due. Any objection to any invoice shall be stated in writing to Trillion within ten (10) days of receipt of the invoice, otherwise Advertiser waives such objections and such invoice will be deemed final, not subject to dispute, and accepted by Advertiser. Advertiser acknowledges that any analytics provided in the Platform or over email during the Campaign month are estimates, and that each invoice shall reflect the final charges for each Campaign month and the balance due as solely determined by Trillion. Advertiser shall pay each invoice within thirty (30) days of the conclusion of each Campaign month. Any late payments will accrue interest equal to one-and-one-half percent (1.5%) per month, or the maximum amount allowable under law, whichever is less, compounded monthly. In addition to any other rights or remedies that Trillion may have, Advertiser’s failure to pay any invoices as set forth herein may result in Trillion canceling or pausing Advertiser’s Campaigns. Further, if Advertiser fails to make any payment as set forth herein, Advertiser shall pay all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Trillion in collecting such payments. If Trillion agrees to a written request by an Advertiser to send an invoice to a third party on Advertiser’s behalf, Advertiser agrees to remain responsible and liable for payment, and if such third party does not pay the invoice within the thirty (30) day payment period, Advertiser shall immediately pay all such amounts to Trillion. Should Trillion establish different invoice terms with Advertiser via email, insertion order or agreement, those terms shall supersede these Advertising Terms.
- If an Advertiser is banned from using Trillion for any form of breach of this Agreement including but not limited to violating any Trillion advertising policy listed in section 6 of this Agreement, then the Account Balance shall be non-fundable and kept by Trillion.
- Invoice Taxes: Trillion may charge any applicable national, state, or local sales or use taxes or value added taxes or goods and service taxes that Trillion is legally obligated to charge (the “Taxes”). If applicable, Advertiser may provide Trillion with an exemption certificate or equivalent information acceptable to the relevant taxing authority, in which case Trillion will not charge or collect the Taxes covered by such certificate. In the event that any amount payable by Advertiser hereunder is subject to deduction or withholding for taxes, including value added taxes, the amount payable by Advertiser hereunder shall be increased such that the amount received by Trillion equals the amount stated on the applicable invoice. Upon written request, Trillion will provide Advertiser with any forms, documents, or certifications as may be required for Advertiser to satisfy any information reporting or withholding tax obligations with respect to any payments under this Agreement. If applicable, Advertiser will be responsible for reporting relevant taxes, including value added taxes, in its place of residency.
- Data Fees: Advertiser may be given the ability to target its Campaigns to certain audiences on the Trillion Network by using Trillion provided, third-party provided or Advertiser provided audience data segments based on inferred User interests or demographics (“Data Segments”). If Data Segments are used, CPVs and invoices shall be inclusive of a “Data Fee” which will be shown within the Platform. Where Advertiser employs such Data Segments, the following restrictions shall apply:
- Advertiser shall not cache the Data Segments in a manner that would permit Advertiser to re-use them (or any functional equivalent or model of them);
- Advertiser shall not resell the Data Segments; and
- Advertiser shall not associate the Data Segments with any personal information, such as a first or last name, street address, email address, phone number, or other identifier of a natural person.
- Advertiser shall not utilize the Data Segments in violation of any applicable law (including, if applicable, the Fair Lending Act).
- Campaign Information: Advertiser may change the Campaign Details for a particular month, a portion of a month, or on a going-forward basis at any time in the Platform. Advertiser acknowledges and agrees that Trillion does not guarantee that the number of Redirects during any period will fully exhaust Advertiser’s Campaign Budget. For purposes of clarity, the Campaign Budget shall be in the currency designated by Trillion, unless otherwise agreed to in a separate writing between the parties.
- Reporting: Trillions measurements regarding Redirects are the definitive measurements under this Agreement and will be used to calculate the amounts due to Trillion hereunder.
- Payment: Before obtaining Redirects for Advertiser on the Trillion Network, Trillion may require a prepayment of the Account Balance (“Prepayment”) from Advertiser. Prepayment shall be a non-refundable $1,000 made via credit card through the Platform. All payments made by credit card may incur a processing fee of 2.0% – 3.5% (region depending) and/or international currency conversion rates per transaction. In the absence of a Prepayment, Trillion will charge the credit card submitted by Advertiser via the Platform once the Account Balance reaches a specific threshold as set by Trillion and as approved by Advertiser. In addition to any other rights or remedies that Trillion may have, Advertiser’s failure to pay any invoices as set forth herein may result in Trillion canceling or pausing Advertiser’s Campaigns. Further, if Advertiser fails to make any payment as set forth herein, Advertiser shall pay all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Trillion in collecting such payments. Upon the conclusion of each calendar month that the Campaign is running on the Trillion Network, the Platform will provide Advertiser with details regarding the amount of Redirects to the Advertisers Landing Pages and the amount of the Prepayment, if applicable, spent by Advertiser based on the CPV set by Advertiser in the Platform. For purposes of clarity, all payments shall be made in the currency designated by Trillion, unless otherwise agreed to in a separate writing between the parties.
- Campaign Management: Advertiser understands and agrees that Advertiser is responsible for its own actions in the Platform with respect to the Advertiser’s Campaigns. Trillion will not review Advertiser’s activity and Trillion is not responsible or liable for any mistakes made by Advertiser in the managing of its own Campaigns. Trillion reserves the right to restrict Advertiser’s ability to edit Campaign Details in the Platform for any reason or no reason.

- use Landing Pages that contain (i) forced downloads, phishing, pharming, malware, ransomware; (ii) content that infringes on any intellectual property rights such as patents, copyrights, trademarks, unauthorized use of any brand names, or trade secrets of any third party entity; (iii) content that contains or promotes any type of shock or scare tactics, anti-religion; racism, violence, illegal drugs, defamation, hate speech, discrimination, abuse, intolerance, exploitive actions, illegal products and/or services, scams, misleading claims, misinformation and/or harm or sexualization of children.
- target generic or non-adult keywords, Data Segments and/or domain names for the purposes of sending the User to an adult oriented, sexualized, or pornographic website.
- change the originally submitted Landing Page of a dynamic and/or tracking URL to a different Landing Page without the prior consent of Trillion.
- use a fallback URL that goes to a different domain name than the originally submitted URL, even if used as a method of fraud protection. For example if the domain name is Domain1.com then the fallback url must also go to Domain1.com even if the path needs to be removed (i.e. meaning you may not be able to track the redirect).
- prevent the User from leaving the landing page unless an action is taken.
- take over the User’s entire screen, hence preventing the User from additional web navigation.

- Content and Data Ownership:
- Ownership of Content: As between the parties, Trillion owns all Intellectual Property Rights in the Platform as well as the data that it collects, along with all technology, data, designs, Collected Data, and know-how used to deploy it, and Advertiser owns all Intellectual Property Rights in the content displayed on Advertiser’s Landing Pages. Advertiser is not required to provide any feedback or suggestions to Trillion regarding the Service. To the extent Advertiser does provide any such feedback or suggestions for improvement, Advertiser hereby grants to Trillion and its affiliates a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, transferable, worldwide right and license to use, reproduce, disclose, sublicense, distribute, modify, and otherwise exploit all such feedback and suggestions in connection with the Service without restriction.
- Ownership of Data: Each party shall own all right, title and interest in and to all data (including all passively- collected or machine-readable data, such as data based on browser type and device identifiers) that is collected on or through such party’s servers or networks (as to each, “Collected Data”), and such ownership rights include (as to each party) the right to sublicense its respective Collected Data and to create derivative works or modeled data sets and analytics from such Collected Data. In the case of Trillion, Trillion’s Collected Data shall include, without limitation: information collected from Users when interacting with Advertiser Landing Pages and/or Trillion’s intermediary tracking pages; IP addresses; browser and operating system information, and mobile device information, IDFAs, and Android Ad IDs (as applicable), audience data, and tracking data from the use of Trillion Pixels.

Trillion’s data collection practices are reflected in its privacy policy, which Trillion recommends that Advertiser review from time to time.
- Data Restrictions: Notwithstanding the foregoing ownership provisions, Trillion agrees to not disclose any Campaign-related data to any third party for any commercial purpose on a non-aggregated basis (i.e., in a way that refers specifically to Advertiser, the Campaign, or any Advertiser brand) unless agreed upon by Advertiser in writing. Further, notwithstanding the foregoing ownership provisions, if Advertiser is using audience targeting, data marketplace audiences, and/or look-a-like targeting, Advertiser shall not use its Collected Data to reverse engineer, build or rebuild any audiences based on audiences or Data Segments that are made available to Advertiser by Trillion provided that Advertiser may use the Collected Data for purposes of campaign attribution and analytics, and/or performance metrics.

Trillion may update, change, or substitute the Trillion Pixel at any time in its reasonable discretion provided that it does not disrupt the functioning of Advertiser’s landing page and serves the same purpose. Trillion will use such Trillion Pixels for operational purposes such as to collect conversion data, perform platform analytics, integrate and link data (e.g., to enable Advertiser Landing Pages to be targeted in an optimal way), and otherwise optimize the manner in which it collects, segments, or targets the Advertiser Landing Pages.

In such circumstances, any purchases related to End Users not directed to the Landing Page URL will not be refunded.
- Termination/Suspension: Advertiser or Trillion may terminate this Agreement (a) for convenience on seven (7) days’ written notice at any time or (b) immediately in the event that the other party fails to remedy a material breach of this Agreement within forty-eight (48) hours of its receipt of written notice thereof.

Any breach of this clause shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement and may result in injunctive relief, damages, or other legal remedies available under law.
- Advertiser will not use Trillion data to attempt to convert, decipher, or figure out 1) Trillion’s or its publisher’s domain IDs into actual domain names and/or, 2) Trillion’s publisher sources when and where domain names and/or publisher names are not already provided to Advertiser.
- Choice of Law: These Advertising Terms shall be governed by Australian law and the State of Victoria shall have exclusive jurisdiction in connection herewith. Trillion will comply with all applicable laws under this jurisdiction. Any legal action or proceeding arising under this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the federal or state courts located in the State of Victoria, Australia and the parties hereby irrevocably consent to personal jurisdiction and venue therein and waive any right to object to venue in, or to seek a transfer from, such court. The parties hereto each expressly agree not to commence or maintain any action in any other court or forum in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of Advertiser’s default of its obligations in Paragraph 4 above, Trillion shall have the right, if it so chooses, to commence an action against Advertiser for such default in the appropriate court in the venue and jurisdiction in which Advertiser resides or maintains assets.
- Successors and Assigns: This Agreement, including the rights and obligations of each party hereunder, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, acquirers, successors, and assigns.

- Force Majeure: Neither Advertiser nor Trillion will be liable for delay or default in the performance of its respective obligations under this Agreement if such delay or default is caused by conditions beyond its reasonable control, including, but not limited to, fire, flood, accident, earthquakes, telecommunications line failures, electrical outages, network failures, acts of God, or labor disputes. If Advertiser’s ability to transfer funds to third parties has been materially adversely affected by an event beyond Advertiser’s reasonable control, including, but not limited to, failure of banking clearing systems or a state of emergency, then Advertiser will make every reasonable effort to make payments on a timely basis to Trillion, but any delays caused by such condition will be excused for the duration of such condition. Subject to the foregoing, such excuse for delay will not in any way relieve Advertiser from any of its obligations as to the amount of money that would have been due and paid without such condition.
- Miscellaneous: This Agreement constitutes the complete and exclusive understanding and agreement between the parties regarding the subject matter herein and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous agreements or understandings, written or oral, relating to its subject matter. The failure of either party to enforce strict performance by the other party of any provision in this Agreement or to exercise any right under this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of that party’s right to do so at any later point. Trillion reserves the right to modify, update, or change any portion of the Agreement, including its Advertising Terms at any time, at its sole discretion, without prior notice to Advertiser. Advertiser is responsible for reviewing the Agreement, including its Advertising Terms regularly to ensure compliance. Any use of the Platform after a modification to the Agreement constitutes acceptance of the Agreement. If Advertiser does not agree with the updated Agreement including its Advertising Terms, they must immediately cease using the Platform, pause all active campaigns, and notify Trillion in writing of their intent to terminate this Agreement. No click-through, online, purchase order or other terms, entered into before or after the execution of this Agreement, will inform the interpretation of this Agreement, or be or remain binding on the parties, and they shall be void. Preprinted terms in Advertiser purchase orders or other customer-generated ordering documents, or terms referenced or linked within them, will have no effect on this Agreement and are hereby rejected, regardless of whether they are signed by Trillion and/or purport to take precedence over this Agreement. In the event that any provision in this Agreement, including its Advertising Terms, as applied to any party or to any circumstance, shall be adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void, unenforceable, or inoperative as a matter of law, then the same shall in no way affect any other provision in this Insertion Order, including its Advertising Terms, the application of such provision in any other circumstance or with respect to any other party, or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement as a whole. Paragraphs 3-4, 6, 8-10, and 16 of these Advertising Terms shall survive termination of this Agreement. Electronic acceptance and signatures of and on this Agreement shall be as effective and enforceable as originals. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.
