If your balance is less than the minimum payable amount, JuicyAds will not process the request until the minimum payable amount is satisfied.
7.3 You acknowledge that JuicyAds will only be liable to you for your revenue based on payments from advertisers that it has received without restrictions that constitute immediately-available funds to JuicyAds. While JuicyAds will use reasonable efforts to timely bill, collect, and clear payment from the advertisers, JuicyAds will not be liable to you for payments due but unpaid from advertisers. If payment from an advertiser is later reversed at any time, JuicyAds may deduct that amount from your future payments.
7.4 If you dispute any payment made by JuicyAds in connection with the Platform, you will notify JuicyAds in writing no later than 30 days after the disputed payment. Failure to notify JuicyAds within this period will result in your waiver of any claims related to the disputed payment.

7.6 JuicyAds will not be liable for any payment based on any of the following:

In addition, if you are past due on any payment to JuicyAds in connection with the Platform, JuicyAds may withhold payment until you have made all outstanding payments. If you are in breach of this agreement, JuicyAds will not pay you for any advertising sold, including any existing, accrued, or pending earnings.
7.8 To ensure proper payment, you will provide and keep accurate contact and payment information associated with your JuicyAds account.

Payment methods may include flat rate, pay per click, pay per impression, pay per action, or any combination of these.
14.3 You may have your transactions voided or partially credited if they fail to deliver purchased ad space and time. Refunds will be at the sole discretion of JuicyAds. These circumstances include:

JuicyAds may also provide information in response to valid legal process, including subpoenas, search warrants, and court orders, or to establish or exercise its legal rights or defend against legal claims. JuicyAds will not be liable to you for any disclose of that information by any nonparty. JuicyAds may share nonpersonally identifiable information about you, including website URLs, website-specific statistics, and similar information collected by JuicyAds, with advertisers, business partners, sponsors, and other nonparties.

20. No-disparaging. During this agreement and for two years after its termination, you will not take any action that is intended, or would reasonably be expected, to harm JuicyAds or its reputation or that would reasonably be expected to lead to unwanted or unfavorable publicity to JuicyAds. But nothing will prevent you from making any truthful statement in connection with any legal proceeding or investigation by JuicyAds or any government body.
21. No Guarantee. JuicyAds is not making any guarantee about the level of impressions of ads or clicks on any ad, the timing of delivery of impressions or clicks, the completion of referral events, or the amount of any payment to be made to you under this agreement. You acknowledge that past advertisement performance does not guarantee or suggest similar future performance. You further acknowledge that sophisticated click fraud exists, is not preventable, and that new methods may come into existence.
22. No Responsibility for Publisher Websites. JuicyAds does not own, operate, control, or host the content found or displayed on participating publisher websites and is not able to remove participating publisher websites from the Internet. Participating publishers are solely responsible for the development, operation, and maintenance of their publisher websites and all materials that appear on their publisher websites used in connection with the Platform. JuicyAds disclaims any ownership or control of participating publishers’ websites or content, and thus any liability arising from participating publishers’ websites or content. You acknowledge full responsibility for the Publisher Websites and for your activities in conjunction with the Publisher Websites. You are responsible for making sure materials made available through the Publisher Websites do not violate any laws, including 18 U.S.C. §§ 2257–2257A, or infringe on the intellectual property or privacy rights of any person, including third party copyrights, patents, and trademarks.

But you are not required to pay if the loss was caused by JuicyAds’s actual intentional misconduct.
25.2 Definitions
(a) “Loss” means an amount that JuicyAds is legally responsible for or pays in any form. Amounts include, for example, a judgment, a settlement, a fine, damages, injunctive relief, staff compensation, a decrease in property value, and expenses for defending against a claim for a loss (including fees for legal counsel, expert witnesses, and other advisers). A loss can be tangible or intangible; can arise from bodily injury, property damage, or other causes; can be based on tort, breach of contract, or any other theory of recovery; and includes incidental, direct, and consequential damages.
(b) A loss is “caused by” an event if the loss would not have occurred without the event, even if the event is not a proximate cause of the loss.
25.3 JuicyAds’s Duty to Notify. JuicyAds will notify you before the 15th business day after JuicyAds knows or should reasonably have known of a claim for a loss that you might be obligated to pay. JuicyAds’s failure to timely notify you does not terminate your obligation, except to the extent that the failure prejudices your ability to defend the claim or mitigate losses.
25.4 Legal Defense of a Claim
(a) JuicyAds’s Control. JuicyAds has control over defending a claim for a loss (including settling it), unless JuicyAds directs you to control the defense.
(b) Direction to Control. If JuicyAds directs you to control the defense, each of the following applies:
(i) You may choose and retain legal counsel.
(ii) JuicyAds may retain its own legal counsel at its expense.
(iii) You will not settle any litigation without JuicyAds’s written consent if the settlement (1) imposes a penalty or limitation on JuicyAds, (2) admits JuicyAds’s fault, or (3) does not fully release JuicyAds from liability.
(c) Good Faith. You and JuicyAds will cooperate with each other in good faith on a claim.
25.5 No Exclusivity. JuicyAds’s rights under this section 25 do not affect other rights that JuicyAds might have.
26. Dispute Resolution
26.1 Litigation Election. Either party may elect to litigate the following type of case or controversy: (a) an action seeking equitable relief, (b) a dispute related to claims subject to indemnification under section 25, or (c) a suit to compel compliance with this section 26.
26.2 Negotiation. Each party will give the other a reasonable opportunity to comply before it claims that the other has not met its obligations under this agreement. The parties will first meet and negotiate with each other in good faith to try to resolve all disputes between the parties arising out of, or relating to the subject matter of, this agreement. The party raising a dispute will submit to the other party a written notice and supporting material describing all issues and circumstances related to the dispute (a “dispute notice”). A primary representative designated by each party will try to resolve the dispute.
26.3 Arbitration
(a) If the parties’ primary representatives are unable to resolve the dispute no later than 30 days after receiving the dispute notice, the parties will settle any unresolved dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of this agreement, or the breach of it, by arbitration administered by the ADR Institute of Saskatchewan in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the ADR Institute of Canada, Inc. The arbitrator, and not any court or agency, will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute arising under or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this agreement, including any claim that any part of this agreement is void or voidable.
(b) A single arbitrator will preside over the arbitration and issue a final award on all issues submitted to the arbitrator. The arbitrator may grant any relief that would be available in a court, except that the arbitrator must not award punitive or exemplary damages, or damages otherwise limited or excluded in this agreement. The arbitrator’s award will bind the parties and any court of competent jurisdiction may enter it as a judgment.
(c) Arbitration will take place in Regina, Saskatchewan, and the language of the arbitration will be English. Subject to the prevailing party’s rights under section 26.6, the parties will bear equally the costs of arbitration, including the fees and expenses of the arbitrator, and each party will bear the costs associated with its case. Unless required by law, neither a party nor an arbitrator will disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration under this agreement without the advance written consent of both parties.
26.4 Equitable Remedies. You acknowledge that breach by you of your obligations under this agreement could cause irreparable harm for which damages would be an inadequate remedy. If any breach occurs or is threatened, JuicyAds may seek an injunction, a restraining order, or any other equitable remedy, in each case without posting a bond or other security.
26.5 Jurisdiction and Venue. If a party brings any litigation proceeding authorized under section 26.1, that party will bring that proceeding only in the courts of Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, and each party hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of those courts for purposes of any proceeding. Each party hereby waives any claim that any proceeding brought in accordance with this section 26.5 has been brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of that proceeding is improper.
26.6 Recovery of Expenses. In any proceedings between the parties arising out of, or relating to the subject matter of, this agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover from the other party, in addition to any other relief awarded, all expenses that the prevailing party incurs in those proceedings, including legal fees and expenses. For purposes of this section 26.6, “prevailing party” means, for any proceedings, the party in whose favor an award is rendered, except that if in those proceedings the award finds in favor of one party on one or more claims or counterclaims and in favor of the other party on one or more other claims or counterclaims, neither party will be the prevailing party. If any proceedings are voluntarily dismissed or are dismissed as part of settlement of that dispute, neither party will be the prevailing party in those proceedings.
26.7 Jury Trial Waiver. Each party hereby waives its right to a trial by jury in any proceedings arising out of, or relating to the subject matter of, this agreement. Either party may enforce this waiver up to and including the first day of trial.
26.8 Class Action Waiver. The parties will conduct all proceedings to resolve a dispute in any forum on an individual basis only. Neither you nor JuicyAds will seek to have any dispute heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. The parties will not combine any proceeding with another without the advanced written consent of all parties to all affected proceedings.
26.9 Limited Time to Bring Claims. A party will not bring a claim arising out of, or related to the subject matter of, this agreement more than one year after the cause of action arose. Any claim brought after one year is barred.
27. Termination; Cancellation
27.1 By JuicyAds. JuicyAds may, at any time, (1) terminate the Platform, (2) suspend your account, (3) terminate this agreement, or (4) cancel one or more ads or your use of any target. JuicyAds will use reasonable efforts to notify you by email of any suspension, termination, or cancellation within a reasonable period.
27.2 By You. You may cancel any ads or terminate this agreement with or without cause at any time by deactivating a campaign in the campaign manager or by removing the ad codes from the Publisher Websites.

28. General
28.1 Entire Agreement. This agreement and the acceptable use policy constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this agreement. It supersedes all earlier written or oral discussions, negotiations, proposals, undertakings, understandings, and agreements between the parties concerning the transactions contemplated in this agreement.
28.2 Amendment. JuicyAds may change the terms of this agreement on one or more occasions, on condition that changes will not apply to ongoing disputes or to disputes arising out of events occurring before the posted changes. JuicyAds will notify you through the Site or by email of any changes to this agreement. Changes will become effective when posted on the Site. It is your responsibility to check the Site periodically for changes to this agreement. If you continue to participate in the Platform after any change, JuicyAds will consider your continued participation as acceptance of the change unless you notify JuicyAds in writing of your disagreement no later than 15 days after the change. In your written notice, you must identify each change you disagree with and the reasons for your disagreement. JuicyAds will contact you no later than 15 days after receiving your notice of disagreement to address your notice and try to reach a mutually amicable resolution. If JuicyAds is unable to resolve your disagreement, your sole remedy is to terminate this agreement.
28.3 Assignment and Delegation. You will not assign any of your rights or delegate any performance under this agreement, except with JuicyAds advance written consent. JuicyAds may assign its rights or delegate its performances under this agreement without your consent. Any purported assignment of rights or delegation of performance in breach of this section 28.3 is void.
28.4 Waivers. The parties may waive any provision in this agreement only by a writing signed by the party or parties against whom the waiver is sought to be enforced. No failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy, or in requiring the satisfaction of any condition, under this agreement, and no act, omission, or course of dealing between the parties, operates as a waiver or estoppel of any right, remedy, or condition. A waiver made in writing on one occasion is effective only in that instance and only for the purpose stated. A waiver once given is not to be construed as a waiver on any future occasion or against any other person.
28.5 Severability. The parties intend as follows:
(a) that if any provision of this agreement is held to be unenforceable, then that provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, unless that modification is not permitted by law, in which case that provision will be disregarded;
(b) that if modifying or disregarding the unenforceable provision would result in failure of an essential purpose of this agreement, the entire agreement will be held unenforceable;
(c) that if an unenforceable provision is modified or disregarded in accordance with this section 28.5, then the rest of the agreement will remain in effect as written; and
(d) that any unenforceable provision will remain as written in any circumstances other than those in which the provision is held to be unenforceable.

Canadian federal law and the laws of the province of Saskatchewan, without giving effect to its conflicts of law principles, govern all matters arising out of, or relating to the subject matter of, this agreement, including its validity, interpretation, construction, performance, and enforcement.
28.8 Force Majeure
(a) If a force majeure event prevents a party from complying with any one or more obligations under this agreement, that inability will not constitute a breach if (1) that party uses reasonable efforts to perform those obligations, (2) that party’s inability to perform those obligations is not due to its failure to (A) take reasonable measures to protect itself against events or circumstances of the same type as that force majeure event or (B) develop and keep a reasonable contingency plan to respond to events or circumstances of the same type as that force majeure event, and (3) that party complies with its obligations under section 28.8(c).
(b) For purposes of this agreement, “force majeure event” means, for any party, any event or circumstance, whether or not foreseeable, that was not caused by that party (other than a strike or other labor unrest that affects only that party, an increase in prices or other change in general economic conditions, a change in law, or an event or circumstances that results in that party’s not having sufficient funds to comply with an obligation to pay money) and any consequences of that event or circumstance.
(c) If a force majeure event occurs, the noncomplying party will promptly notify the other party of occurrence of that force majeure event, its effect on performance, and how long the noncomplying party expects it to last. From then on, the noncomplying party will update that information as reasonably necessary. During a force majeure event, the noncomplying party will use reasonable efforts to limit damages to the other party and to resume its performance under this agreement.
28.9 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This agreement does not, and the parties do not intend it to, confer any rights or remedies on any person other than the parties to this agreement.
28.10 Relationship of the Parties. The parties intend that their relationship will be that of independent contractors and not business partners. This agreement does not, and the parties do not intend it to, create a partnership, joint venture, agency, franchise, or employment relationship between the parties and the parties expressly disclaim the existence of any of these relationships between them. Neither of the parties is the agent for the other, and neither party has the right to bind the other on any agreement with a third party.
28.11 Successors and Assigns. This agreement binds and inures to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. This section 28.11 does not address, directly or indirectly, whether a party may assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this agreement. Section 28.3 addresses these matters.
28.12 Further Assurances. The parties will take any further actions, or sign any further documents, as may be necessary to implement and carry out the intent of this agreement.
28.13 Electronic Signatures. Any affirmation, assent, or agreement you send through the Site in response to a prompt will bind you. You acknowledge that when you click on an “I agree,” “I consent,” or other similarly worded “button” or entry field using a mouse, keystroke, or other computer device, this action is the legal equivalent of your handwritten signature and binds you in the same way.
