Users may not mislead End Users into believing that the End User will receive anything by clicking on a text link or search box or otherwise encourage End Users, either with or without their knowledge, to click on advertising results through offering incentives or any other methods that are manipulative, deceptive, malicious or fraudulent, in the sole but reasonable judgment of Adhunter.app.
    7. Adhunter.app reserves the right to terminate your account if it is idle for more than a month. Adhunter.app may notify you in advance of such cancellation.
    8. User may not direct or redirect domains to the Adhunter.app's servers in any manner which has not been previously approved by Adhunter.app. As such, Adhunter.app reserves any and all rights to direct the method by which User directs or redirects its domains to the Adhunter.app's servers, whether through DNS, redirect code or otherwise.

    Additional Restrictions.

    No User Website shall: (a) provide any interface for a Downloadable App, any marketing materials for any Downloadable App, or any hyperlinks to any of the foregoing; (b) be a downloadable or Internet accessible application, as determined by Adhunter.app in its sole reasonable discretion; (c) under any circumstances, be a competitor of any search engine company, as determined by Adhunter.app in its sole reasonable discretion; (d) place, display or use any unauthorized branding or attribution of any kind on such User Website, including without limitation on any Landing Page, Search Results Page or framed in conjunction with any such pages, to indicate that any search engine is providing such results or for other promotional purposes, (e) except to the extent provided by Adhunter.app, contain any pornographic, hate-related or violent content or contain any other material, products or services that (i) violate or encourage conduct that would violate any criminal laws, any other applicable laws, or any third party rights, or (ii) would otherwise give rise to civil liability or (f) include content above or below the Landing Page, unless that content is submitted for approval in writing to Adhunter.app and pre-approval in writing is received from Adhunter.app, prior to any such content being displayed on the User Website.

    In the event that any website is blocked from use on the Site by Adhunter.app, such website may not participate, either directly or indirectly, in the Site without the express written consent of Adhunter.app. Accordingly, neither User nor anyone acting on behalf of User shall redirect or attempt to redirect the website to the Site through use of embedded redirection or other method intended to avoid the blocking of such website from participation in the Site. Any failure to comply with the terms of this policy may result in an immediate termination of User's account and forfeiture of any commissions earned or to be earned by User hereunder.

    Domain Names & Intellectual Property Rights. User shall not place with Adhunter.app or in any way through the Site a domain name to which it does not have valid ownership, as determined by Adhunter.app in its sole discretion. In the event that any such domain name is provided for use in the Site, and such lack of rights or a claim of intellectual property infringement is brought to the attention of Adhunter.app, then Adhunter.app shall have the right to cancel the participation of any such domain name(s) in the Site, and, in appropriate situations, in the sole discretion of Adhunter.app, terminate User's participation in the Site and seek legal recourse against User and any others involved in accordance with these Terms of Service and applicable law.

    Representatives and Agents. If a User desires to have a representative or agent manage and control their account with Adhunter.app, either individually or aggregated with other accounts managed by such representative or agent, User's use of such representative or agent shall be subject to the following terms: (i) such representative or agent must have agreed to be bound by these Terms of Service and otherwise must be in good standing with Adhunter.app, as detailed below; (ii) User shall be deemed to have authorized such representative or agent to take any and all actions with respect to the User's account and participation of User's websites in the Site, including without limitation, being the authorized contact for all communications to and from Adhunter.app and being authorized to make any and all changes with respect to User's account with Adhunter.app and Adhunter.app shall be fully entitled to rely on, and shall have no liability to User with respect to, any and all requests, decisions, actions and/or omissions of such representative or agent with respect to User's account and/or websites; and (iii) User's commission payments and User's account with Adhunter.app may be suspended, cancelled or terminated if such representative or agent violates these Terms of Service with respect to any account or websites name participating in the Site which is under its control, even if such breach is unrelated to such User's account. If User desires to remove its representative or agent from its account, it must do so by delivering written notice to Adhunter.app specifically revoking the authority of such representative or agent from such User's account, such revocation not to be effective until written confirmation from Adhunter.app of receipt of its written request. User acknowledges and agrees that in the event User's representative or agent is removed as provided herein, Adhunter.app may change any and all terms applicable to User's commissions, including the rate, payment thresholds and other payment terms to be consistent with other individual Users' accounts, and that User's account may be subject to cancellation if User does not meet minimum performance standards as an individual account.

    For purposes of this Agreement, a User or representative shall be in "good standing" if such User (or if a representative, then such representative and each customer of the representative who would be Users hereunder) is not currently in violation of these Terms of Service, has not been in repeated violation of these Terms of Service, even if such past violations have been cured, and has not been subjected to excessive Revenue deductions or adjustments in Adhunter.app's discretion.

    Each representative or agent that manages and/or controls accounts or websites participating in the Site for which they are not the owner agrees to be bound by these Terms of Service for all such accounts and websites. Each such representative or agent acknowledges and agrees that (i) a violation of these Terms of Service with respect to any one account managed or controlled by it shall constitute a violation of these Terms of Service for all accounts managed or controlled by such representative or agent and may result in all of such accounts being suspended or terminated, (ii) in the event that Adhunter.app receives complaints or other communications from the owner of accounts or websites managed by such representative or agent expressing their dissatisfaction with such representative or agent, Adhunter.app may, in its sole and absolute discretion, revoke such representative's or agent's status as a representative for accounts or websites with Adhunter.app and Adhunter.app may work directly with such representative's or agent's clients and (iii) it shall treat all confidential information of a managed account confidential and that disclosure of such information to anyone other than Adhunter.app or the client shall constitute a violation of such client's privacy and may result in Adhunter.app revoking such representative or agent's status as a representative for accounts or websites participating in the Site.

    Account Access. When a User uses the services provided by Adhunter.app, User will be required to create an account with Adhunter.app to use its web-based interface. User is responsible for selecting and continuously managing his, her or its password and security settings to protect User's account and User's website monetization settings (including User's contact information) from unauthorized changes. User is entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and secrecy of User's password and account security settings, as well as User's other information. All consequences of User's voluntary disclosure of password and account information as well as all activities that occur in User's account are User's responsibility.

    User agrees to notify Adhunter.app immediately of any unauthorized use of User's account or any other breach of security. User agrees that it will be responsible for all activity that arises from User's account, whether initiated by User or others on User's behalf and Adhunter.app shall be entitled to rely on any requests which have been initiated from User's account. Adhunter.app disclaims any liability for any activity in User's account, whether initiated or authorized by User or not.

    Additional Definitions. As used herein, the following capitalized terms shall have the meanings provided as follows:

    "Clicks" means a click by an End User. "Clicks" do not include clicks which are invalid as determined by Adhunter.app's internal tracking system and traffic quality scoring process or for which Adhunter.app does not recognize revenue from its advertiser partners. Invalid Clicks may include clicks (i) generated by automated crawlers, robots or click generating scripts providing traffic which has no intent to sign-up, purchase or otherwise act upon a product or service offering; (ii) multiple clicks on the same advertisement within a brief period of time, or (iii) that an advertiser receives and rejects for a valid business purpose (e.g., a Click which was not generated by an End User).

    "User Website" means any website associated with a domain name owned by a User which participates in the services or features of the Site.

    "End User" means a bona fide living human Internet user. An "End User" excludes any person or any mechanical, artificial or fraudulent means (such as a so-called robot, spider, software or scraper) lacking an intention to purchase, sign up or otherwise act upon a product or service of the marketer contained on a Landing Page.

    "Landing Page" means an html page or a framed html page hosted by or on behalf of Adhunter.app, content from Adhunter.app servers or such servers as Adhunter.app uses.

    "Net Revenue" means Revenue adjusted for any bad debt, net credits or returns from previous payment periods, less any amount Adhunter.app determines, in its sole discretion, was the result of improper use of User Websites and as such revenue is otherwise calculated or adjusted by Adhunter.app to take into account (i) any exclusions set forth in these Terms of Service, (ii) the results of Adhunter.app's traffic quality scoring process and (iii) any other adjustments made by Adhunter.app in its sole discretion. Adhunter.app may exclude from Net Revenue monies from traffic that originates from countries where traffic is, in the sole discretion of Adhunter.app, suspect or difficult to track in the normal course of business or is determined to be invalid on a consistent and regular basis by Adhunter.app or its Advertiser.

    "Revenue" means estimated gross revenue to be received by Adhunter.app for a particular calendar month as a direct result of Clicks on an advertisement or other promotional link attributable to traffic from Landing Pages or webpages hosted on a User Website pursuant to the Site as reported by Adhunter.app's Advertiser as of the end of such calendar month.

    Consequences of Non-Compliance. User acknowledges that, in addition to any other remedies at law that Adhunter.app may have, failure by User to comply with any or all of the terms in these Terms of Service will result in (i) the forfeiture by User of any yet unpaid commissions and/or (ii) the obligation to pay additional compensation from future earnings, over time, to compensate for the monies paid out by Adhunter.app plus applicable interest, limited to 5% per annum of the principal, accrued monthly. Future earnings payment applies only if User is a still existing client. Monies due will be based solely on payments made on such websites with issues of violations for the time period that User's websites subject to the Site were in violation of the terms plus any applicable interest, as stated above. Adhunter.app shall make the determination of length of time and value of any violation of the terms herein, solely and such determinations will be final. User may present information to the contrary up to fifteen (15) calendar days after notification to User of the beginning of the investigation. User agrees to hereby accept Adhunter.app's decisions regarding such violations of the Terms of Service as final and wave any litigation rights, whatsoever, of any issue, compensation or otherwise relating to the decision and/or Terms of Service violations. User or Adhunter.app may terminate these Terms of Service at any time. Adhunter.app reserves the right to access any outstanding balance payments, in its sole discretion, if User, its subsidiary, or related company were to reapply to be a User using the Site at any time in the future. Finally, such failures may also result in the termination of User's account.
