Publisher’s Copy Protective Clause: Advertisers and advertiser agencies assume liability for all content (including text, representation and illustrations) and advertisements printed, and also assume responsibility for any claims arising there from made against the publisher. The publisher reserves the right to reject any advertising which is not in keeping with the publication’s standards, even if it has been published previously.

Short Rates and Rebates: Advertisers will be short rated if, within a 12-month period from the date of the first insertion, they do not use the number of insertions upon which their billings have been based. Advertisers will be rebated if, within a 12-month period from the date of the first insertion, they have used sufficient additional insertions to warrant a lower rate than that at which they have billed.

Rate Protective Clause: When new rates are announced, advertisers will be protected at their contract rates for 90 days after effective date of new rate. Orders may be canceled at the time the change in rates becomes effective without incurring a short-rate adjustment on insertions already run, provided the contract has earned contact frequency rate up to date of cancellation.

Combination Rates: Advertisers in any combination of CCD, Greetings etc., Selling Christmas Decorations, and Selling Halloween will receive the earned frequency rate across the publications.

Cancellation: Orders may be cancelled without charge provided the Publisher receives written notice of cancellation prior to the ad close date. A cancellation charge will be assessed if notice is received after ad close date. Cancellation may affect frequency discount.
