Site Modification

The Akcelo.io website is evolving and may be modified in whole or in part at any time without prior notice. AKCELO may also, at any time and without notice, make improvements and/or changes to the services described on the Akcelo.io site. These changes are brought to the user’s attention by being posted online and are deemed accepted by the user without reservation from that moment.

Publisher Compensation

The Publisher will receive compensation calculated based on amounts paid by advertisers or advertising networks to AKCELO. The Publisher expressly agrees that payments will only be made by AKCELO after it has received its own remuneration. Penalty clause: in case of non-payment of an amount due, and after a formal notice sent by registered mail with acknowledgment of receipt remaining without effect within fifteen days, AKCELO may consider the order terminated and claim a 25% increase in the outstanding amounts as compensation. If the advertiser or its agent has multiple ongoing orders and fails to pay invoices corresponding to the first insertions on time, AKCELO reserves the right to terminate the other orders. In the event of judicial reorganization or liquidation, the order will be automatically terminated at AKCELO's initiative as of the date AKCELO becomes aware of the procedure or the date of the declaratory judgment. Invoices issued before this date must be paid.

Control

It is understood that AKCELO's campaign management tool will be binding between the Parties. Any claim regarding campaign delivery will not be considered by AKCELO unless it follows a joint check conducted by the advertiser and an AKCELO employee. Claims, regardless of their nature, will only be accepted in writing and within a maximum of fifteen days after the invoice date.

Commitment

Obligations of AKCELO
