Submissions of any advertisement, insertion order, space reservation or position commitment shall constitute acceptance of the following General Conditions:

    As used in this section titled "General Conditions," the term "publisher" shall refer to White River Productions, Inc
    All insertion orders are accepted subject to provisions of our current rate card. Rates are subject to change upon written notice from the publisher. Should a change in rates be made, space reserved may be cancelled by the advertiser or its agency at the time the change becomes effective without incurring short-rate charges, provided the advertisements published to the date of cancellation are consistent with the appropriate frequency rate or volume rate. Cancellation of space reservations for any other reason in whole or part by the advertiser will result in an adjustment of the rate (short-rate) based on past and subsequent insertions to reflect actual space used at the earned frequency rate or volume rate.
    Advertisements are accepted upon the representation that advertiser and its agency have the right to publish the contents thereof. In consideration of such publication, advertiser and its agency agree to indemnify and hold publisher harmless against any expense or loss by reason of any claims arising out of publication.
    All contents of advertisements are subject to publisher's approval. Publisher reserves the right to reject or cancel any advertising copy which at its discretion is deemed objectionable, misleading, not in the best interests of the reader, or contrary to Federal and State regulations, whether or not the ad had previously been accepted and/or published. Publisher further reserves the right to reject or cancel any advertisement, insertion order, space reservation, or position commitment at any time without giving cause. Publisher reserves the right to insert the word "advertisement" above or below any copy.
    Advertising space reservations are accepted in good faith by verbal or written notification. The absence of written notification following a verbal space reservation does not invalidate that space commitment.
    Positioning of advertisements is at the discretion of the publisher except where a request for a specific preferred position is acknowledged by publisher in writing.
    Publisher is not liable for delays in delivery and/or nondelivery in the event of an Act of God, action by any governmental or quasi-governmental entity, fire, flood, insurrection, riot, explosion, embargo, strikes whether legal or illegal, labor or material shortage, transportation interruption of any kind, work slow down, or any condition beyond the control of publisher affecting production or delivery in any manner.
    Publisher shall have the right to hold advertiser and/or its advertising agency jointly and severally liable for such monies as are due and payable to the publisher for advertising which advertiser or its agency ordered and which advertising was published.
    Publisher shall not be liable for any costs or damages if for any reason it fails to publish an advertisement. The publisher's liability for any error will not exceed the cost of the space occupied by the error.
    Publisher is not responsible for mistakes in production of ad copy not submitted in writing.
    Publisher shall have no liability for errors in key numbers or advertisers index.
    Conditions other than rates are subject to change by publisher without notice.
    No conditions other than those set forth in this rate card shall be binding on the publisher unless specifically agreed to in writing by the publisher.
