Upon receiving your order to purchase Media Placements, Vzual.com will

you may choose to meet the threshold or cancel the order.
d.

e.
Vzual.com will attempt to prevent any loss to you as a result of the
failure of Media Outlets, suppliers or others to fulfill their commitments, but

right of the Media Outlet to reject, pre-empt, change, or substitute Media

neither you nor Vzual.com approved or intended. Vzual.com shall have no
liability for any such display or posting, except as a result of willful
misconduct on the part of Vzual.com.

these errors. Any and All campaigns delivered on behalf of the Client, using the

different Campaigns with any order, the individual Campaign Start Dates may
fluctuate. Vzual.com will attempt to
begin the each Campaign within 5 days of the Payment Date.

liable if the Campaign does not begin within the 5 day period. Furthermore, in no event shall

punitive, or other damages whatsoever (including, but not limited to, damages
for loss of profits, loss of information or other pecuniary loss) arising out of
the use or inability to use the service, even if Vzual.com has been advised of
the possibility of such damages.
9.
Email campaigns:
The responsibility of any email
Campaign ends upon the delivery, cancellation, or refusal of your email
advertisement. Predicting the amount
of recipients that will open and respond to an email is not possible. Success and Click Through Rates will
vary solely on the Ad message. In some cases advertisers may experience little
or no signups, sales, or inquiries from their campaign.
You understand that HIT COUNTERS on your site DO NOT ACCURATELY REPRESENT THE
NUMBER OF VISITORS SENT TO YOUR SITE FROM A CAMPAIGN. This is due to the large
amounts of traffic sent to the site in a relatively short timeframe. You also
understand that Vzual.com does not guarantee sales or signups and will not issue
a refund if none are achieved.
Any order that results in a Fraudulent Charge or Chargeback will be reported to
a fraud database used by over 1200 online advertising providers. All information
on fraudulent orders is blacklisted with all providers and ALL the information
we collect may be turned over to law enforcement authorities for further
investigation.
In the event that there is an error with the submitted Ad or any URLs, Images,
or files contained in the ad, the Client will not hold Vzual.com or its
Partner/Affiliate websites responsible for the error.
We reserve the right to host any and all images that might appear in an email ad
on one of our servers. You
understand and acknowledge that the campaign report provided by Vzual.com or its
Partner/Affiliate websites to be true and accurate and agrees to hold Vzual.com
or its Partner/Affiliate websites, its parent company as well as all companies
and individuals involved harmless for any unexpected results arising from any
advertising campaign.
Vzual.com reserves the right to stop a campaign at any time without refund due
to CAN-SPAM Violations. Vzual.com
will not promote spam, scam, hate, warez, hacking or any other site/offer that
could be considered offensive to the most discriminate viewer. Any attempt to
bypass our intended guidelines will result in account cancellation and no
recourse for refund. If you have any further questions or concerns, please do
not hesitate to contact us via e-mail at
info@vzual.com.

information you provide to improve this Site and our products and services,
provide thorough customer service, and follow up on Site visitors who may be
violating our policies or abusing our system. When you post messages, other Site
visitors can also view them. We may also publish transcripts of archived chats.
We urge you to exercise caution when providing personally identifiable financial
or other information in the chatrooms, bulletin boards, product reviews or other
message areas. Remember that any information you disclose in these areas becomes
public information.
In addition to the personal information you supply, we automatically collect
non-personal information to evaluate how visitors, guests, and members use the
Site. We collect non-personal data to make the Site work better for you in the
following ways: to improve the design of the Site, to provide personalization of
the Site, and to evaluate the performance of our marketing programs. The
technologies we use to gather this non-personal information may include "IP
addresses", "cookies", "clear gifs", browser detection, and "weblogs".
How
we use information
Our primary goal in collecting your information is to provide you with a
personalized, relevant, and positive experience with this Site. We use the
personal information you provide about yourself, for example, when placing an
order for the Service. Vzual.com will not sell, rent, or lease your personal
information to others, except to the extent necessary to fulfill your order for
the Service, to provide you with other services or as set forth in this policy.
We may combine personal data collected at this Site with other information you
have provided us through other sources or with non-personal information that we
automatically collected at this Site (as further described in this policy).
We use your email address to answer email we receive from you and to provide
status updates for the Service. We will not share your email address with
outside parties except as set forth in this policy.
You can register on this Site to receive promotions and updates on new products
and services, or to be contacted for market research purposes. The contact
information you submit will not be used for these purposes unless you
specifically "opt-in". You can control your privacy preferences regarding such
marketing communications (see the section below entitled "Your privacy
preferences and "opting-out").
From time to time, you may be invited to participate in optional customer
surveys or contests, and Vzual.com may request that you provide some or all of
the above listed personal information in those surveys or contests. We use
information collected through contests to contact winners and award prizes. We
also use information collected from surveys to learn about our customers in
order to improve our services and develop new products and services of interest
to our customers.
Vzual.com uses "IP addresses", "cookies", "clear gifs", browser detection, and
"weblogs" to provide a better experience on this Site and to give us useful
business information. Third party technologies such as cookies may also be used
for the same purposes.
IP addresses define the Internet location of computers and help us better
understand the geographic distribution of our members and manage the performance
of this Site. Cookies are tiny files placed onto the hard drive of your computer
when you visit this Site, so we can immediately recognize you when you return to
the Site and deliver content specific to your interests. You may modify your
browser preferences to accept all cookies, be notified when a cookie is set, or
reject all cookies. Please consult your browser instructions for information on
how to modify your choices about cookies. If you modify your browser to reject
certain or all cookies, you may not be able to use certain features of this
Site.
We also use a technology called "clear gifs". Clear gifs are tiny graphics with
unique identifiers that are used to track emails and online movements, helping
us understand what marketing campaigns and content are effective.
We detect the type of web browser you are using to optimize the performance of
this Site and to understand the mix of browsers used by our visitors, guests,
and members. To learn about how people use our Site, we examine weblogs, which
show the paths people take through our site and how long they spend in certain
areas.
Vzual.com may also contract with unaffiliated third parties to provide services
for the Site, such as software for Site features, customer communications,
sweepstakes and prize fulfillment, analyzing and evaluating the information we
collect, and other services. When we do this, we may provide your personally
identifiable information to third parties only to provide those services, and
they are not authorized to use your personally identifiable information for any
other purpose.
Our
commitment to data security
Access to your data is limited to authorized Vzual.com staff and vendors and
restricted by password protection mechanisms. We process all Service orders on a
secure server that encrypts all financial information through Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL). Although total security does not exist on the Internet, Vzual.com
shall make commercially reasonable efforts to safeguard the information that you
submit to Vzual.com. We will not store your credit card information in our
database unless you provide us such information for use with the Service. Credit
card numbers are used for processing payments only and for no other purposes.

Your
privacy preferences and opting out
When you sign up as a user of the Service, you may begin receiving marketing
communications such as e-mail newsletters, product and service updates,
promotions, and contests. Our customers generally find this type of information
useful.
How
to access or correct your information
You can access and maintain your personally identifiable information on your "My
Account" area. To protect your privacy and security, we require a Member ID and

served on this Site.
It is possible that we could decide to sell the business or assets associated
with this Site or the Service. In any transaction of this kind, customer
information, including your personally identifiable information, may be among
the assets that are transferred. It is also possible that Vzual.com would sell
all or substantially all of its assets and business and in such case customer

certainly be among the assets that are transferred. If we sell our business or
assets in one of these ways, you will be notified by a notice placed on this
Site, by an email to your last known email address, as indicated in Vzual.com's
records, or by mail to your last known mailing address, as indicated in
