In the event of a conflict between terms in this document and the MMA Guidelines, this document shall prevail.

Content: “Content” means the material you are asking OnCampusText to store, process, or transmit to end users. You represent the following:1) You own the Content and / or you have obtained all licenses and clearances necessary for distribution of the Content to mobile devices (and, optionally, web sites, flash widgets, or other means of viewing the content that we mutually agree on). The Content does not violate the rights of any person or company protected by copyright, trade secret, patent or other intellectual property or similar laws or regulations.

2) The Content is consistent with standards imposed by mobile aggregators and carriers; specifically, it is not libelous, defamatory, false, misleading, inaccurate, sexually explicit, unlawful, obscene, or racially or ethnically offensive, or objectionable.

OnCampusText may refuse to transmit or may delete any Content that, in its opinion, violates any of the above. In such case, OnCampusText will inform you of the problem and work with you so that the campaign may be completed.

In order for OnCampusText to fulfill the terms of this agreement and the associated insertion orders, you permit OnCampusText to transform and encode the Content into various formats, store it, and transmit it via third parties to mobile devices (and, optionally, web browsers, flash widgets, and other means of viewing the content that we mutually agree on).

3) sending messages to those mobile phone numbers does not violate any applicable law or regulation.

Reporting: You may receive access to OnCampusText’s online Campaign Manager, which will confirm the start of the campaign and provide proof of performance.

Service Level and Reliance on Third Parties: OnCampusText’s messaging platform has 99.99% uptime. However, that platform relies on multiple external suppliers to transmit messages to and from mobile phones, including ‘aggregators’ who intermediate between OnCampusText and various mobile carriers, the mobile carriers themselves, different internet service providers; several server hosting companies, and others. Message delay or failure due to these outside parties can occur and falls under the definition of “Force Majeure” as described below.

Force majeure

Generally. Excluding payment obligations, neither client nor the Company providing services will be liable for delay or default in the performance of its respective obligations under these Terms if such delay or default is caused by conditions beyond its reasonable control, including, but not limited to, fire, flood, accident, earthquakes, telecommunications line failures, electrical outages, network failures, acts of God, or labor disputes (“Force Majeure event”). If Media Company suffers such a delay or default, Media Company will make reasonable efforts within five (5) business days to recommend a substitute transmission for the time period for the transmission. If no such substitute time period or makegood is reasonably acceptable to Client, Company will allow Client a pro rata reduction in the space, time, and/or program charges hereunder in the amount of money assigned to the space, time, and/or program charges at time of purchase. In addition, Agency will have the benefit of the same discounts that would have been earned had there been no default or delay.

Related to Payment. If Agency’s ability to transfer funds to third parties has been materially negatively impacted by an event beyond the Agency’s reasonable control, including, but not limited to, failure of banking clearing systems or a state of emergency, then Agency will make every reasonable effort to make payments on a timely basis to Media Company, but any delays caused by such condition will be excused for the duration of such condition. Subject to the foregoing, such excuse for delay will not in any way relieve Agency from any of its obligations as to the amount of money that would have been due and paid without such condition.

4’s/IAB Standard Terms and Conditions Version 3.0

c. Cancellation. If a Force Majeure event has continued for five (5) business days, Media Company and/or Agency has the right to cancel the remainder of the IO without penalty.

Additional Indemnification: You agree to indemnify OnCampusText and will hold it and its affiliates and subsidiaries (and the owners, directors, employees and agents of each of them) harmless against any damages, losses and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) arising out of or relating to any claims, actions or other proceedings that are brought by or on behalf of any third party, if those claims result from your acts or omissions in connection with OnCampusText’s storage, conversion, transmission, or delivery of your Content, or from OnCampusText’s authorized use of mobile phone numbers supplied by you.

You acknowledge that the allocation of risk in these terms reflects the price paid for the Services and that it is not within the control of OnCampusText how or for what purposes the Services are used. If any exclusion in this service is held to be invalid and OnCampusText becomes liable for loss or damage that may lawfully be limited then such liability shall be limited to the amount paid by you for the Services. OnCampusText shall have no liability to the Client for any loss arising from any material, data or instructions supplied whether digitally or otherwise by the Client or on its behalf which is incomplete, inaccurate, illegible, out of sequence or in the wrong form or arising from late arrival or non-arrival or any other fault by the Client or on its behalf.

If failure is caused by the Client or any agent of the Client to whom access to Servers was given then the Client shall pay all costs to reinstate and/or repair the Server. Where such unavailability is due to the negligent failure of OnCampusText to deal with circumstances within its control and is for more than a total of 48 hours in any 30 day period then OnCampusText will at its discretion either pay to you compensation limited to a refund of the fee paid by you for the unavailable Services or provide you with a credit up to the same amount.
