Standard Terms & Conditions

Tweet

IAB Canada is proud to offer the digital advertising industry a standard set of Terms & Conditions that can be used when booking a campaign.

Each year a task force of IAB Canada members assemble to review the current document and decide on whether further revisions are required. The latest Terms & Conditions release (2013) took over a year’s worth of meetings and negotiations to achieve a document that we can build upon further as the digital advertising industry matures. Some notable changes from the previous version are highlighted below:

• By default, Media Company numbers are to be used for billing, if not indicated otherwise on the Insertion Order (IO)
• Agencies must be the authorized agent for their clients in order to use these T+Cs; if principle, ask for payment up front
• More protection for Publisher data
• The ability for addendums to be added (it is highly recommended to not change any wording within these standard Terms & Conditions)
• The continued inclusion of the Late Creative Policy; an important reminder for all companies
