Contract Print E-mail

This is the legal stuff you should know for advertising. 

This agreement is made on the date signed electronically as reflected in the accompanying e-mail confirmation of credit card or online checking order, or e-mail confirmation of form to fax or send via regular postal mail (hereafter referred to as "order" or "advertising order") by and between Small Business Help Center, Inc. (hereafter referred to as "SBHC", "us", "our" or "we") and the Advertiser named at the end of this contract (hereafter referred to as "you" or "your").

ARTICLE I - TYPE OF ADVERTISING

You contract with us to rent advertising space on our website (located at for the type(s) of advertising stated in your advertising order.

ARTICLE II - YOUR OBLIGATIONS TO US

For all banner ads you agree to provide us either on diskette or via e-mail the file containing your banner upon signing this contract, but in no event later than seven days prior to the beginning of the term of this contract. Banner dimensions may not exceed 120 x 240 pixels (i.e. standard tower ad). We require JPEG or GIF file types, and continuous looping animation is permitted. The maximum file size is 20KB, but we recommend 15KB or less to download to viewers faster, and thus improve your exposure. Banner ads may link to the web page you specify.

You warrant to us that you have obtained any and all copyright/trademark releases or other approvals to showcase information provided to us by you. You agree to indemnify us and hold us harmless from any claims resulting from use of your material and/or use of our site. You agree to excuse us from performance due to circumstances beyond our control such as Acts of God, disruption in telecommunications services, or inability to use your supplied material for the purposes intended.

ARTICLE III - OUR OBLIGATIONS TO YOU

We will place your ad on the page(s) you selected, as reflected in your order. We will post your order on the site within seven days of receiving your order (plus banner, if applicable).

If you have requested additional services from us (banner development, excessive amount of Listings changes, etc.) we will bill you separately for them. Our failure to bill you or waiver of our right to bill you for some or all of these additional items does not waive our rights on other billings (including other additional items).

While we will make every effort to work with you, both we and you agree that we cannot guarantee specific results, nor can we be held liable for delays, incorrect data, loss of revenue, or any other damages. In other words, you agree to accept the advertising as posted, with no warranties or guarantees of any kind.

ARTICLE IV - PAYMENT TERMS & LENGTH OF CONTRACT

The first month payment is due upon signing. The Banner term will commence on the first day posted.

Payment is due in full each month no later than the last day of the prior month. All advertising contracts are for either six or twelve months, with the exact number of months for this contract determined as selected by you in the order. Contracts are not subject to cancellation. You agree to provide your credit card or bank draft (ACH) data so we can charge the advertising fee directly to your card. By providing this data, you are granting explicit approval for us to charge the agreed upon monthly amount for each consecutive month of your order.

ARTICLE V - REMEDIES FOR FAILURE TO PERFORM

If we fail to post your advertisement by the date promised, and/or your ad and/or the website is not available for more than two days during a month, we will provide an additional month of advertising at no additional expense to you. This is the full extent of our liability for our failure to perform according to this contract.

If you fail to provide the information required in ARTICLE II of this contract by the deadlines stated, we will remove your ad from our website and will charge one additional month of advertising fee to cover the lost revenue potential for us. You must remember the deadlines. While we will try to keep in contact with you, it is your obligation alone to provide any updated information required.

If we feel that your advertisement is inappropriate in any way for our website, we will contact you as soon as we are aware of the problem to discuss it with you. If we cannot agree on an acceptable advertisement to post, we will either charge one additional month and terminate your contract (as explained in the previous paragraph) for update ads, or we will refund your initial fee for first time advertisers. We reserve this right in order to maintain the attractiveness of our website for the majority of visitors, and to help maintain the best possible hits for all our advertisers.

Any complaints or concerns we receive from site visitors concerning your ad we will forward to you while you are a current advertiser on our website. You agree to contact the complainant and resolve any issues. However, upon receiving a third complaint within the same month, we reserve the right to terminate your ad without notice while charging you for one final additional month. This provision is designed to protect the reputations of all advertisers and the website so we can make this a more effective advertising forum for all advertisers.

ARTICLE VI - MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

You and we both agree that this contract is governed by the laws of North Carolina. You and we agree to seek an arbitrator in North Carolina first if a dispute should arise under this contract. You and we agree that any court action regarding this contract must be filed in a court in North Carolina.

You and we also agree that if one provision of this contract is invalidated, that will not affect the remaining portions of the contract. Finally, you and we agree that this written instrument contains the entire agreement between the parties, so no statements, promises, or inducements made by either you or us or any agent of either party that are not contained in this contract shall be valid or binding. This contract cannot be enlarged, modified, reduced, or altered except in writing, signed by both parties. This agreement shall be binding on your heirs, executors, assignees, and successors.
