FifthBoston Ad Network ("the Network," "we," "us") is operated by FifthBoston Holdings. By accessing the dashboard at ad-admin.fifthboston.services or serving ads through our infrastructure, you ("you," "user," "account holder") accept these Terms of Service in full.

If you are using the Network on behalf of a company or organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these terms. If you do not have that authority, do not use the platform.

3. Advertiser Terms

As an advertiser, you are solely responsible for the content, legality, and accuracy of your ads and landing pages.

You agree to:

We reserve the right to reject, pause, or remove any ad creative at our discretion. Ads removed for policy violations are not eligible for refunds of spent budget.

4. Publisher Terms

As a publisher, you agree to display ads served by FifthBoston Ad Network in compliance with the following terms.

You agree to:

Publishers found to be generating invalid traffic will have their accounts suspended and outstanding revenue forfeited. We conduct ongoing traffic quality audits.

5. Payments & Billing

Advertisers

Advertiser campaigns run on a prepay basis. Budget is deducted as impressions are served. Unused budget may be refunded upon written request, minus any processing fees, within 30 days of account closure. No refunds are issued for budget spent on delivered impressions.

Publishers

Publisher revenue is calculated based on verified impressions at the agreed revenue share rate (70% of gross CPM unless otherwise agreed in writing). Payments are issued monthly, net-30, for all balances above $50. Balances below $50 roll over to the following month.

• Payment methods: ACH bank transfer, PayPal, or wire transfer for amounts over $1,000
• Publishers must submit valid W-9 (US) or W-8BEN (international) before first payment
• Revenue associated with invalid traffic is withheld pending investigation
• Tax obligations are the publisher's responsibility; FifthBoston issues 1099-NEC for US publishers exceeding $600 annually

6. Intellectual Property

You retain all rights to your ad creatives and landing page content. By submitting creatives to the Network, you grant FifthBoston Holdings a limited, non-exclusive license to serve, display, and cache those creatives for the purpose of delivering your campaign.

FifthBoston Ad Network's platform, technology, trademarks, and documentation are the exclusive property of FifthBoston Holdings. You may not copy, reverse engineer, or create derivative works from any part of our platform without written permission.

7. Privacy

Your use of the Network is also subject to our Privacy Policy, available at ads.fifthboston.services/privacy.html. The Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

As an advertiser or publisher, you are responsible for your own compliance with applicable privacy laws (GDPR, CCPA, etc.) in connection with your use of ad tracking and audience data.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, FifthBoston Holdings is not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Network, including but not limited to lost revenue, lost data, or service interruptions.
