These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between Factor42, Inc. ("Factor42," "we," "us," or "our") and the entity or individual ("Client," "you," or "your") accessing or using our ad operations and digital campaign fulfillment services. By executing a Statement of Work (SOW) or Service Order, or by accessing our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
1. Acceptance of Terms
These Terms apply to all clients and users of Factor42's services. If you are entering into these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use our services.

The specific scope of services, deliverables, timelines, and pricing for each engagement are defined in a mutually executed Statement of Work (SOW) or Service Order.
3. Account Access and Responsibilities
To receive services, Client may be required to grant Factor42 access to advertising platform accounts, data sources, and reporting tools. Client agrees to:
- Provide accurate and complete account credentials and access as required
- Maintain appropriate access controls and notify Factor42 immediately of any unauthorized access
- Ensure all creatives, landing pages, and campaign materials comply with applicable platform policies and laws
- Designate an authorized point of contact for campaign approvals and communications
4. Fees and Payment
4.1 Pricing Model
Factor42 charges based on a combination of a monthly management fee and a CPM (cost-per-thousand-impressions) rate, as specified in the applicable SOW. Pricing is negotiated per engagement and may vary based on scope, volume, and platform mix.
4.2 Invoicing and Payment Terms
- Invoices are issued monthly, based on the prior month's managed spend and impression volume
- Payment is due within thirty (30) days of invoice date (Net-30)
- Late payments accrue interest at 1.5% per month (or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower)
- Factor42 reserves the right to suspend services for accounts more than 30 days past due
4.3 Disputed Invoices
Client must notify Factor42 in writing of any disputed invoice within 15 days of receipt. Undisputed portions of invoices remain due by the original payment date.
5. Intellectual Property
- Client Materials: Client retains all ownership rights in ad creatives, brand assets, audience data, and campaign data provided to Factor42. Factor42 is granted a limited license to use these solely to deliver the services.
- Factor42 Materials: Factor42 retains all rights in its proprietary processes, methodologies, templates, tools, dashboards, and platform infrastructure. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of Factor42 intellectual property to Client.
- Work Product: Reports, campaign configurations, and deliverables created specifically for Client under an SOW are owned by Client upon full payment of applicable fees.
6. Confidentiality
Each party agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the other's non-public business information disclosed in connection with the services ("Confidential Information"), using at least the same degree of care it uses to protect its own confidential information (but no less than reasonable care). Confidential Information does not include information that is publicly known, independently developed, or received from a third party without restriction. Obligations of confidentiality survive termination of these Terms for a period of three (3) years.
7. Data Processing
To the extent Factor42 processes personal data on behalf of Client in connection with campaign delivery, Factor42 acts as a data processor and Client acts as the data controller. The parties agree to execute a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) where required by applicable law (including GDPR). Factor42 shall process such data only in accordance with Client's documented instructions and applicable law.
8. Representations and Warranties
Each party represents and warrants that: (a) it has full authority to enter into these Terms; (b) its performance will not violate applicable law or third-party rights. Client additionally warrants that all ad creatives, targeting parameters, and campaign content comply with applicable advertising platform policies, consumer protection laws, and industry standards including FTC guidelines on advertising disclosures.
9. Disclaimer of Warranties
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, FACTOR42 PROVIDES SERVICES "AS IS" AND DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. FACTOR42 DOES NOT GUARANTEE SPECIFIC CAMPAIGN PERFORMANCE OUTCOMES, IMPRESSION VOLUMES, OR CONVERSION RATES, AS THESE ARE SUBJECT TO PLATFORM ALGORITHMS, MARKET CONDITIONS, AND FACTORS OUTSIDE FACTOR42'S CONTROL.
10. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, FACTOR42'S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO CLIENT FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL FEES PAID BY CLIENT TO FACTOR42 IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE CLAIM. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
11. Indemnification
Client agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Factor42 and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from: (a) Client's breach of these Terms; (b) Client's ad content or campaign materials; (c) Client's violation of any applicable law or third-party rights.
