Advertiser Agreement
Last Updated: July 10, 2026 · Version 1.3
This Advertiser Agreement governs the submission, approval, and display of advertising content within Play Spotter. By submitting an advertisement and completing payment, you agree to the following terms.
1. Authorization
You represent and warrant that you are authorized to act on behalf of the business, that all submitted information is accurate and truthful, and that you have the legal rights to use all submitted images, logos, trademarks, links, and advertising content.
2. Content Requirements
All advertising content must be family-friendly and appropriate for adult parents and caregivers using the service. Advertising content must comply with all applicable laws and must not be false, harmful, obscene, fraudulent, defamatory, misleading, deceptive, unsafe, illegal, or inappropriate.
The app is not directed to children, and advertising is not delivered to child accounts. Advertising content may not be designed for, primarily directed to, or marketed toward children under thirteen (13) years of age.
We reserve the right to reject, pause, remove, or request changes to any advertising content at our discretion.
3. Approval & Publication
All advertisements are subject to review and approval. Payment does not guarantee approval or placement, publication, position, timing, impressions, clicks, conversions, or results. We may request modifications before approval and may remove or pause ads at any time if they violate this Agreement, platform policies, legal requirements, or Play Spotter content standards.
4. Campaign Terms
Ads will run for the selected duration, geography, and placement, subject to availability, approval timing, platform limitations, and app functionality. Start dates may be adjusted based on review, approval, technical availability, or other operational needs.
Unless expressly stated in writing, advertising campaigns are non-exclusive. Other ads, including local ads, house ads, or third-party fallback ads, may appear elsewhere in the app.
Campaign edits: If you edit an active campaign (including changes to creative, target area, or campaign dates), the updated version will be submitted for re-review before the changes take effect. Your existing approved campaign will continue to run during this review period. The time required for re-review varies and is not guaranteed.
Authorization holds: For campaigns with a start date beyond our standard processing window, we may place an authorization hold on your payment method at the time of submission to verify funds. This hold is not a charge and will be released or converted to a charge according to our standard billing schedule. If your payment method declines the hold, your campaign may not be activated.
Campaign end: Campaigns end on their scheduled end date and do not auto-renew. To continue advertising after a campaign ends, a new submission is required.
5. Local Ads and Third-Party Fallback Ads
Play Spotter may use third-party advertising services, including Google AdMob, to display fallback advertising when no approved local ad is available for a particular placement, region, or screen.
Local paid advertisements remain separate from third-party fallback ads. Third-party fallback ads are not part of a local advertiser's paid campaign unless expressly stated in writing.
Local advertisers do not receive individual user profiles, saved places, uploaded photos, search history, precise personal location data, or personal information from Play Spotter for ad targeting.
Reporting: Campaign-level reporting, where available, may include aggregate metrics such as impressions, clicks, click-through rate, campaign dates, placement type, and general geographic campaign area. Reporting is provided through the advertiser portal or on request and is not guaranteed to be real-time. We are not responsible for discrepancies between our reported metrics and third-party measurement tools.
6. Payments, Refunds & Billing
- Payment is required before review or activation.
- If an ad is rejected before going live, we may issue a refund in line with this Agreement. Refunds for rejected campaigns will be returned to the original payment method and may take several business days to process.
- You may cancel a campaign at any time; once an advertisement has gone live, cancellation does not entitle you to a refund for time already paid for.
- Chargebacks, fraudulent disputes, or payment issues may result in account suspension, removal of active campaigns, or denial of future advertising access.
- Taxes, fees, and payment processor charges may apply where required.
- Discount codes: Discount codes, if issued, are single-use, non-transferable, have no cash value, and may have expiration dates or restrictions. Discount codes are applied at the time of payment and will not be reinstated if a campaign is cancelled, rejected, or refunded after the code has been used.
- Receipts and invoices: A payment confirmation will be sent to the email address provided at the time of purchase. If you require a formal invoice for accounting purposes, you may request one by contacting support@play-spotter.com.
7. No Performance Guarantee
We do not guarantee impressions, clicks, conversions, leads, customers, revenue, placement priority, user engagement, or business results. Advertising performance depends on user behavior, market conditions, app traffic, placement availability, technical factors, and other circumstances outside our control.
Services are provided "AS IS." To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no warranties, express or implied, about the advertising services, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, quiet enjoyment, non-infringement, or warranties arising out of course of dealing or usage of trade. Where implied warranties cannot be disclaimed under applicable law, we limit the duration and remedies of such warranties to the fullest extent permitted by law.
8. Advertiser Responsibility
Advertisers are solely responsible for the accuracy of business information, advertising claims, customer interactions, fulfillment of services, compliance with laws, and any offers, promotions, products, or services advertised. We are not responsible for disputes between users and advertisers.
9. National and Managed Partnerships
Certain advertisers may enter into managed or national partnership arrangements, which may be governed by separate pricing, terms, timelines, and fulfillment conditions agreed upon in writing. Where a written partnership agreement exists, it supplements and may supersede specific provisions of this Advertiser Agreement. If no separate agreement exists, this Advertiser Agreement governs.
10. Limitation of Liability & Indemnification
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Play Spotter and Lucht Applications LLC shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, loss of revenue, loss of business opportunities, loss of goodwill, or issues arising from ad performance or campaign results.
The Advertiser agrees to indemnify and hold Play Spotter, Lucht Applications LLC, and their officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents harmless from any and all claims, damages, liabilities, losses, expenses, and costs, including reasonable legal and accounting fees, related to: (a) your access to or use of our services or third-party services; (b) your advertising content, claims, products, services, links, images, logos, or trademarks; (c) your violation of this Agreement; (d) your violation of applicable law; or (e) your negligence or willful misconduct.
Our total liability to you for any claim arising from your use of our advertising services shall not exceed the amount you paid to us for the advertising campaign at issue.
Any action, regardless of form, arising out of or relating to a dispute must be brought within one (1) year after the cause of action has accrued.
11. License to Use Content and Intellectual Property
You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display, reproduce, resize, crop, format, and otherwise adapt your submitted advertising content within the app and related administrative, review, reporting, and promotional materials for the purpose of providing the advertising services.
You retain ownership of your submitted advertising content, subject to the license granted above.
12. Termination
We may suspend, pause, reject, or terminate campaigns if this Agreement is violated, payment issues occur, fraudulent activity is detected, platform rules require it, or continued display could create legal, safety, policy, or user-trust concerns.
13. Modifications
We may update this Agreement at any time. Continued use of the advertising platform or submission of advertising content after updates constitutes acceptance of the updated Agreement.
14. Acceptance
By submitting your advertisement, you confirm that you have read and agree to this Agreement, understand that payment does not guarantee approval or results, and accept all terms outlined above.
15. Governing Law
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nebraska, USA. Any legal proceedings shall be filed in Douglas County, Nebraska, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
