Terms and Conditions


AlexList Advertising Terms and Conditions

Welcome to the AlexList Pay Per Phone Call Advertising Service Terms of Use. The following are the rules ("Terms") that govern the use of the Advertising program ("the "Program") of the AlexList.org website ("Site"). If DNA Brand Design. ("AlexList") accepts your registration form, you will become a member of the Program and you expressly agree to be bound by these Terms and to follow these Terms and all applicable laws and regulations governing the Site. We urge you to carefully read the Terms, and all policies referenced below or elsewhere on our Site that relate to the Program. 

Enrollment

To apply, please submit a complete Program application. We will evaluate your application and will notify you of whether your application is accepted. We may accept or reject your in our sole discretion. Please note that if we accept your application and your business (the "Business") is thereafter determined in our sole discretion to be unsuitable for the Program, we may terminate this Agreement without notice to you and for any reason or no reason whatsoever, and AlexList, its employees, consultants and other agents shall have no liability for such decisions. 

Cost Per Call Customers

Once you are accepted into the Program, your Business hereby agrees to pay to AlexList a mutually agreed-upon amount which will be no less than $2 for each Program Call to the Business. Each month the Business agrees to pay for the total number of Program Calls, including any and all applicable taxes. For first-time advertisers the first five (5) Program Calls are free. A "Program Call" occurs when a user calls the AlexList-assigned toll-free number on the Business' profile page and is automatically redirected to that Business' existing phone number. Business acknowledges that its obligation hereunder is based solely on the number of Program Calls and not on Business' ability to convert such calls to sales or other user actions. The price of Program Calls is subject to change at AlexList' discretion. 

Payment

In the event that Business has elected to pay AlexList by credit card, Business agrees that AlexList may authorize the credit card and charge the credit card for the applicable Program Calls. Business represents that all payment information provided to AlexList will be accurate and complete. In the event that AlexList is unable to charge Business' credit card or a check issued by Business is returned, AlexList may, in its sole discretion and in addition to any other remedies available to it under this Agreement and any and all applicable laws, suspend or terminate Business' participation in the Program. Business shall be responsible for the payment of any and all charges and/or fees incurred by AlexList as a result of any dishonored check or credit chargeback. If Business believes any claim or dispute exists with respect to any charges or fees incurred by Business pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Business shall notify AlexList in writing no more than 30 days following posting by AlexList to Business' account of such charge or fee. Business' failure to notify AlexList of any claim or dispute within such 30 day period will result in the waiver of any such claim or dispute by Business and such charges or fees shall become final. 

Business Advertising

AlexList reserves the right to modify any elements of the Business' advertising, including placement, size, format, text or any other elements and to move the listing within the directory listing categories on the Site. AlexList may distribute Business' advertising through AlexList's third party distribution partners. AlexList reserves the right to include an image, from AlexList's proprietary image gallery, into Business' advertising. Business also grants AlexList a right and license to copy, display and modify (solely for formatting purposes) Business' logo and/or trademark for inclusion on Business' advertising on the Site. 

Your Participation in the Program is at Your Own Risk

You are solely responsible for, and shall exercise caution, discretion, common sense, and judgment in participating in the Program. If you ever believe that a calling customer or another subscribing advertiser has violated the law or is defrauding, threatening, or endangering anyone, AlexList urges you immediately to contact the police directly for help. If you meet with calling customers or subscribing advertisers in person, you do so entirely at your own risk. AlexList does not provide any advice, information and other products or services, nor verify, guarantee or make any representations regarding the identity or qualifications of any subscribing advertiser. AlexList does not monitor any information exchanged, and, as a result, does not control, nor is responsible for the truth, accuracy, completeness, safety, timeliness, quality, appropriateness, legality or applicability of anything said or written by subscribing advertisers or calling customers. Subscribing advertisers who participate in the Program do so entirely at their own risk, and AlexList bears no responsibility in this regard. AlexList does not monitor telephone conversations made to subscribing advertisers. However, AlexList reserves the right to contact subscribing advertisers, in order to evaluate compliance with the rules and policies set forth in these Terms. 

If you have a dispute with another subscribing advertiser or a calling customer, or suffer any harm arising out of or connected with the Program, you hereby waive all claims against and release AlexList (and its parent company, subsidiaries, employees, officers, directors, shareholders, suppliers, and agents) from any and all liability for claims, demands, damages (actual and consequential), costs and expenses (including litigation costs and attorneys' fees) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with the Program or with regard to such disputes. 

Notice of Changes

AlexList reserves the right to modify these Terms or discontinue the Program at any time without notice. All modified terms and conditions shall be effective ten (10) days after they are initially posted on the AlexList website. If any modification is not acceptable to you, your only recourse is to terminate this Agreement. By continuing to participate in the Program following any posting of new Terms on the Site, Business accepts and agrees to be bound by the new Terms. 

Termination

Either party may terminate this agreement at any time, for any reason, by providing the other party with prior written notice, which may include notice by email.
