Recrue Media Terms and Conditions
Updated: June, 2010
1. The following terms and conditions apply to the services provided by
Recrue Media, LLC, and constitute an agreement between the parties. The
agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into effective as of the date of
execution noted on the first page of the corresponding Insertion Order
(the "Order"), if one exists, between Recrue Media, LLC, with its
principal place of business at 9 Buckskin Lane, Rolling Hills Estates,
CA 90274. ("Recrue Media") and the party or parties requesting services
from Recrue Media ("Advertiser"). If no Insertion Order exists, then
this Agreement is effective when the Advertiser selects "I have read and
agree to the Terms and Conditions" on the Recrue Media website.
2. Advertising Obligations
1. Recrue Media's sole obligation under this Agreement will be to use
commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the Creative in the manner
specified in the Order (“Creative”). Such Creative will be (1) created
by Recrue Media on site(s) and distributed via the Recrue Media Network,
or (2) provided by Advertiser as specified in the Order.
2. All Creative will be subject to Recrue Media's approval. Recrue Media
reserves the right to reject, discontinue, or omit any Creative or any
part thereof for any reason. This right will not be deemed waived by
acceptance or actual use of any Creative.
3. IN-HOUSE DESIGN Creation: The cost of ads purchased through Recrue
Media Retargeting include one full set of creatives in the four ad
sizes; medium rectangle, leaderboard, skyscraper, and wide-skyscraper.
The medium used will vary depending on the needs of the client and the
usefulness of their application to the design and include Adobe Flash,
JPG, GIF, Animated GIF, and Dynamic HTML.
4. IN-HOUSE DESIGN Delivery: Upon approval from the client of the
design, the final product will be delivered via hosting of the ads on
Recrue Media's server system. These ads have custom clickTAGs that are
designed for use specifically with Recrue Media Retargeting. If the
client wishes to retain digital copies of these ads then one of the
following formats will be supplied:
FLASH: Client will receive the mastered SWF files.
JPG / GIF: Client will receive the mastered JPG or GIF files.
HTML: Client will receive a TXT file with the source code and associated
images in a ZIP file.
5. Files are only available upon request. Please note that the banners
will not link to the client's website if they are removed from Recrue
Media's server, or if the files are e-mailed. The linking is done
exclusively through Recrue Media's Retargeting Server.
Recrue Media retains all raw files in house. These include FLA, FLV, PSD,
AI, INDD, and .HTML files.
3. Payment and Refunds
1. Advertiser will pay Recrue Media in accordance with the Order. If no
Order exists, Advertiser will pay Recrue Media in advance via cash
payment or credit card. All payments will be made in advance unless: (1)
otherwise specified; or (2) credit is approved. Upon approved credit,
payment will be made within 30 days from date of invoice. In the event
Advertiser pays with credit card, Advertiser expressly agrees that
Advertiser will not charge back on such credit card account.
2. Recrue Media will be under no obligation to provide Creative until
payment is received.
3. Advertiser understands that impression counts may vary and that
Advertiser will be responsible for any impressions delivered to a
campaign, even if they exceed the amounts outlined in the Order. All
payments will be based on Recrue Media's measurements and not based upon
those of Advertiser or any other party. Unless otherwise specified, all
invoices created by Recrue Media relating to the Creative will be in
accordance with measurement and tracking as conducted by Recrue Media.
4. Recrue Media will refund any amounts remaining on deposit if
Advertiser has met all commitments under this Agreement including
complete payment for all Creative.

nature (even if such damages are foreseeable, and whether or not Recrue

any aspect of this Agreement.
2. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the liability
of Recrue Media will be limited to the total amount paid by Advertiser
to Recrue Media under this Agreement.

Media and Advertiser with respect to the subject matter set forth.
