If the signed Order returned to Ad Venturist contains any changes or additional terms, Ad Venturist may accept or reject them in its sole discretion.

(3) Publication process and approvals

3.4 If the Advertiser fails to indicate its approval of the Advertisement by the Approval Deadline Date, Ad Venturist shall not Deliver the Advertisement and shall be entitled to treat the Advertisement as cancelled, in which case the Cancellation Charges shall be paid by the Advertiser to Ad Venturist.
3.5 No alteration to, or modification of, approved copy and/or Content relating to the Advertisement shall be made or accepted by Ad Venturist once the Advertiser has indicated approval of the Advertisement. However, where practicable, and upon written request of the Advertiser, Ad Venturist shall not Deliver the Advertisement or, if already Delivered, shall take down the Delivered Advertisement as soon as reasonably practicable. In any case, the Advertiser shall remain liable to pay for the Advertisement in accordance with the relevant Order and invoice.
3.6 In relation to each Advertisement, the Advertiser grants Ad Venturist (and Ad Venturist may grant a sublicence to the relevant third parties including the Partner) the right to use and reproduce: (i) the Advertiser’s name, trade marks and Content as Ad Venturist may consider necessary for the purposes of performing the Services and Delivering the Advertisement; (ii) the Advertiser’s name and trade marks for the purpose of promoting its own services in its own promotional literature; and (iii) the Advertisement in any medium (print, electronic or otherwise) for promotional purposes and as part of any service in which the relevant media is Delivered or made available under licence from Ad Venturist.
3.7 Ad Venturist reserves the right not to Deliver the Advertisement at any time for any reason. This may happen for example where the Advertiser fails to meet its obligations under clauses 4.8 or 4.9 or where Ad Venturist loses the right to Deliver advertising in a particular media. Ad Venturist and/or the Partner may also reject the Advertisement on grounds that it is in the reasonable opinion of Ad Venturist and/or the Partner inappropriate for the proposed media or in any way in breach of these Terms or applicable law, regulations or codes of practice. If the Advertisement is rejected in its current form, Ad Venturist shall liaise with the Advertiser to agree changes to the Advertisement. If changes cannot be agreed within the timeframe set by Ad Venturist (acting reasonably), Ad Venturist may cancel the Advertisement and clauses 3.8 and 3.9 shall apply.
3.8 If an Advertisement is cancelled solely due to Ad Venturist’s, the Partner’s or their third party supplier’s act or omission, Ad Venturist shall try to offer an alternative publication date. If no alternative date is available or the alternative date is not acceptable to the Advertiser, the Advertisement shall be cancelled, and the Advertiser shall be entitled to a full refund of all sums paid in relation to that Advertisement (excluding the sums paid for any Design Services). This shall be the Advertiser’s sole remedy in these circumstances.
3.9 If the Advertisement is cancelled for any reason except those in clause 3.8, the Advertiser shall pay Ad Venturist the Cancellation Charges.
3.10 For the avoidance of doubt, where Ad Venturist and / or the Partner reject the Advertisement on the grounds it is inappropriate for the proposed media or in any way in breach of these Terms or applicable law, regulations or codes of practice, and the Advertisement is then cancelled, the cancellation shall be deemed within the scope of clause 3.9.
3.11 If the Advertisement as Delivered by Ad Venturist contains a substantial error solely due to Ad Venturist’s or its third- party supplier’s act or omission, Ad Venturist shall, on request, re-Deliver the Advertisement at no additional cost to the Advertiser at a time and in a place agreed with the Advertiser. Ad Venturist shall not be responsible for repetition of errors and it is the Advertiser’s responsibility to inform Ad Venturist of any errors and provide any necessary assistance to Ad Venturist to prevent a repeat of the error. If the parties cannot agree on the time and place of re-Delivery within the timeframe set by Ad Venturist (acting reasonably), the Advertisement shall be cancelled and the Advertiser shall be entitled to a full refund of all sums paid in relation to that Advertisement (excluding the sums paid for the Design Services). This shall be the Advertiser’s sole remedy in these circumstances.
3.12 Ad Venturist shall be under no obligation to return any physical Content, including artwork and transparencies, provided by the Advertiser unless the Advertiser requests the return of the Content in writing at the time of providing it and pays to Ad Venturist on demand all costs associated with the return of the Content prior to its return. Ad Venturist reserves the right to destroy any Content that has been in its possession and unclaimed by the Advertiser for at least six months. The Advertiser is responsible for retaining its own copies of any Content supplied electronically, as all such Content shall be deleted six months following receipt.
