    “Client Personal Data” means all information and data (including texts, documents, drawings, diagrams, images or sounds) owned by, licensed to (other than by HMC) or relating to the Client and/or any of its customers, which is in each case generated by, supplied to, or is otherwise retained by, HMC pursuant to or in connection with this agreement;

    “HMC” means Hurst Media Company Limited details contained below.

    “Press Deadline” means the date HMC provides files to the media owner for publication.

    “UK GDPR” has the meaning given to it in section 3(10) (as supplemented by section 205(4)) of the Data Protection Act 2018.

    1) Payment terms are offered based on the credit score of any client as per our credit check supplier (CreditSafe). All non-UK customers are required to pay in full in advance of publication. Subject to credit being granted, HMC’s standard terms are 50% of the total amount of the contract price agreed is due at the time of booking and the balance due within seven (7) days after publication. This first 50% shall constitute a non-refundable part payment of the contract price. The balance of the contract price shall be payable seven (7) days after publication of the advertisement (or first publication in the case of a series booking). If the agreement covers both print and digital formats, the balance is due seven (7) days from the occurrence of the earliest event.

    2) The specification and distribution details are contained in HMC media information specific for the above publication or web listing, a copy of which the Client acknowledges receipt, or confirms it has read at: https://www.hurstmediacompany.co.uk/products/

    3) Invoices are strictly net at the price agreed and exclusive of applicable VAT or other direct sales taxes and payable without deduction unless agency commission is agreed in writing as deductible at a specific rate.

    4a) The contract shall be deemed to have been made at the offices of HMC.

    4b) Acceptance of these terms and conditions may be effected by written confirmation (including by email or completed order form) from the Client to HMC. Acceptance of these terms and conditions by email to the Client will constitute a legally binding agreement between the Client and HMC.

    4c) By accepting these terms and conditions the Client acknowledges that this is a business-to-business contract and therefore is not subject to any statutory cooling off provisions and that the only rights of cancellation are those governed in these terms and conditions (see clause 22). All confirmed orders are final and the Client has no rights of cancellation upon written (including by email or completed order form) confirmation of an order for services from HMC.

    5) The Client is solely responsible to submit to HMC suitable advertisement/advertorial copy in electronic format (in accordance with HMC’s specifications) by the specified date. The Client warrants and represents that the advertisement (a) does not contravene the Trade Descriptions Act 1968 nor any other law, statute or regulations in England and/or in any other country where the advertisement might appear as a result of its publication by HMC (b) is not in any way defamatory or illegal or an infringement of the rights of any third party (c) complies in all respects with the British Code of Advertising Practice and any other relevant advertising standards prevailing (in England and/or in any other country where the advertisement might appear as a result of its publication by HMC) at the time the advertisement is published. The Client will also indemnify HMC, its suppliers and distributors against any damage they may sustain in consequence of publication of an advertisement, (such as copyright claims by a third party).

    6) All advertisements/advertorials are accepted at HMC’s discretion as to suitability. If HMC exercises its rights under this paragraph at any time, HMC shall not be liable for costs, claims, liabilities or damages of any kind as a consequence of so doing.

    7) Any design, production or marketing services agreed as part of the booking are bound by the terms and conditions of Hurst Media Labs Limited Marketing Terms & Conditions which are available by clicking here.

    8) HMC reserves the right to make grammatical changes and minor corrections to conform to HMC’s house style. In addition, HMC reserves the right to ensure all commercial content is compliant with the Advertising Standards Authority’s UK Code of non-broadcast advertisements, sales promotions and direct marketing communications (CAP) by making copy changes which in HMC’s reasonable opinion are necessary to ensure advertising messages are compliant both with the letter and spirit of the code. HMC reserves the right to request source material from the Client to support any claim and also to remove claims which in its reasonable option are not supported by peer-reviewed research.

    9) In the event that HMC’s stated payment terms are not met, the entitlement of the Client to any discounts applied to the Client’s original booking(s) is forfeited, and the price for the advertisement insertions will default to that published on the current ratecard at the time of booking. In the event of late payment (i.e. payment outside of HMC’s agreed payment terms), HMC reserves the right to claim for payment in full from the Client as per the current published ratecard and reserves the right to charge statutory interest on that amount. Statutory interest is calculated at the rate of 8% per annum above the Bank Of England’s base rate, and is calculated daily. If HMC exercises its right to charge statutory interest, it is calculated from the day after due date until payment is received by HMC, and before as well as after judgement if applicable. HMC’s invoice for interest charges shall be final and binding upon the Client.

    10) All reasonable efforts will be made by HMC to fulfil its obligations, but should HMC be prevented or delayed in carrying out any of their obligations by reason of an Act of God, war, lock-out, fire, flood, delays in transit, strikes, riots, postal delay or any other unexpected or exceptional causes or circumstances beyond their control the time for delivery shall be extended until a reasonable time after the event preventing or interfering with the due performance of HMC’s obligations has ceased, and in no circumstances is HMC to be liable for any consequential loss or damage suffered by the Client as a result thereof. For clarity, HMC will not be liable for any loss occasioned by the failure of an advertisement to appear from any cause whatsoever.

    11) The terms of the contract as stated in HMC’s order confirmation constitute the entire contract between the Client and HMC. Any variations to the contract terms are only valid if signed by a director of HMC.

    12) Every effort will be made to meet the expressed wish of a Client regarding specified positions, but no guarantee can be given unless a supplementary positioning charge has been agreed.

    13) While HMC will take reasonable care of any material supplied by the Client whilst in HMC’s custody, HMC shall not be liable for loss or damage of material in transit or whilst with any third party.

    14) In the event that the Client is in default of its obligations under paragraph 5 (or gives notice that it does not intend to fulfil such obligations prior to the date for submission of advertising copy) the Client agrees to pay HMC as liquidated damages the lesser of:

    a) 100% of HMC’s rate card price for the advertisement (or aggregate price in the case of a series of advertisements) prevailing at the date of this order or;

    b) the contract price as agreed between HMC and the Client credit being given for any payments made by the Client in respect of this order prior to the default or notice.

    15) In the event that the Client enters into liquidation (whether compulsory or voluntary); company administration; or is placed into receivership; or comes to any arrangement with its creditors, whether formal or informal; or becomes unable to pay its liabilities as and when they fall due; or is presented with a valid winding-up petition by the court; or is subject to a successful winding-up petition by the court, those in control of the Client at the time (i.e. directors/partners/owners for, respectively, a limited company/partnership/sole trader), warrant that all outstanding debts will be paid to HMC, and undertake to fulfil the payment liability personally, on a joint and several basis.

    16) In the event of any conflict between these standard terms and conditions and HMC’s order confirmation, the order shall prevail.

    17) HMC reserves the right to vary date of publication or advertising going live on the website by not more than +/-21 days and will notify the Client if there is a change to the scheduled date as soon as is reasonably practicable. In any event, time shall not be of the essence as regards the publication date.

    18) HMC does not accept liability for printing errors, including variations in the quality of colour reproduction, and such variations shall not be deemed cause for the Client withholding payment.

    19) HMC reserves the right to charge the single insertion rate for each advertisement published in the event of the Client failing to complete a series booking.

    20) All disputes or complaints must be made in writing to HMC as soon as the Client is aware and in any event within 28 days of publication.

    21) In no event shall the liability of HMC for any breach of contract or in tort exceed the price paid or payable by the Client for the advertisement.

    22) The Client may cancel a booking by agreeing to pay a severance fee. The level of this fee is a percentage of the booking value, and varies depending on how close the cancellation is to the Press Deadline.

    (i) If the Press Deadline is more than 30 days in the future the fee is 33% + VAT of the booking value. (ii) If the Press Deadline is more than 7 days in the future but fewer than 30 days away the fee is 66% + VAT of the booking value.

    (iii) If the Press Deadline is within 7 days the fee is 100% + VAT of the booking value.

    (iv) A separate cancellation invoice on 7-day terms will be raised by the accounts department, and the original invoice credited in full once payment is received.

    (v) In the event the cancellation invoice is not paid within terms, it will be cancelled and the full amount of the original contract will stand.

    (vi) For the avoidance of doubt, for any digital campaigns that are already live, the cancellation fee is 100% of the contract value.

    (vii) Cancellations within 72 hours of the Press Deadline will not be accepted and HMC reserves the right at its absolute discretion to source content (e.g. artwork or copy) from the Client’s website and/or other materials at full charge if the Client fails to provide it and run with assumed approval from the Client order to fulfil the booking.

    1) Payment terms are offered based on the credit score of any client as per our credit check supplier (CreditSafe). All non-UK customers are required to pay in full in advance of receiving proofs. Subject to credit being granted, HML’s standard terms are 50% of the total amount of the contract price agreed is due at the time of booking and the balance due within seven (7) days after receiving proofs. This first 50% shall constitute a non-refundable part payment of the contract price. The balance of the contract price shall be payable seven (7) days after receiving proofs.

    2) The specification and distribution details are as set out in the materials provided at the point of sale.

    3) Invoices are strictly net at the price agreed and exclusive of applicable VAT or other direct sales taxes and payable without deduction unless agency commission is agreed in writing as deductible at a specific rate.

    4a) The contract shall be deemed to have been made at the offices of HML.

    4b) Acceptance of these terms and conditions may be effected by written confirmation (including by email or completed order form) from the Client to HML. Acceptance of these terms and conditions by email to the Client will constitute a legally binding agreement between the Client and HML.

    4c) By accepting these terms and conditions the Client acknowledges that this is a business-to-business contract and therefore is not subject to any statutory cooling off provisions and that the only rights of cancellation are those governed in these terms and conditions (see clause 22). Unless the Client provides 72 hours’ written notice, all confirmed orders are final and the Client has no rights of cancellation upon written (including by email or completed order form) confirmation of an order for services from HML.

    5) Unless HML has agreed to provide a CAP code checking service, the Client is solely responsible to submit to HML requested content in electronic format (in accordance with HML’s specifications) by the relevant Content Deadline. The Client warrants and represents that any designs, copy, other content or advertisement that it has provided or approved (a) does not contravene the Trade Descriptions Act 1968 nor any other law, statute or regulations in England and/or in any other country where the advertisement might appear (b) is not in any way defamatory or illegal or an infringement of the rights of any third party (c) complies in all respects with the British Code of Advertising Practice and any other relevant advertising standards prevailing (in England and/or in any other country where the advertisement might appear ) at the time the advertisement is published. The Client will also indemnify HML, its suppliers and distributors against any damage they may sustain in consequence of publication of an advertisement, ( including but not limited to, any claims for designs/copies created which are deemed non-compliant by the Advertising Standards Authority and any copyright claims by a third party).

    6). It is the Client’s responsibility to ensure that:

    (a) the terms of the Client’s order are complete and accurate;

    (b) the Client cooperates with HML in all matters relating to the services to be provided under this contract;

    (c) the Client provides HML with such information and materials as HML may reasonably require in order to supply the services, and ensure that such information is complete and accurate in all material respects;

    7) If HML’s ability to perform the services is prevented or delayed by any failure by the Client to fulfil any obligation listed in Clause 6 (Default):

    (a) HML will be entitled to suspend performance of the services until the Client remedies the Default, and to rely on the Default to relieve HML from the performance of the services, in each case to the extent the Default prevents or delays performance of the services;

    (b) HML will not be responsible for any costs or losses the Client sustains or incurs arising directly or indirectly from HML’s failure or delay to perform the services; and

    (c) it will be the Client’s responsibility to reimburse HML on written demand for any costs or losses HML sustains or incurs arising directly or indirectly from the Default.

    8) HML will share output files with the Client, working files will only be shared with the Client if explicitly agreed between the parties. In addition, HML reserves the right to ensure all commercial content is compliant with all applicable laws, statutes, regulations and codes from time to time in force (including without limitation, the Advertising Standards Authority’s UK Code of non-broadcast advertisements, sales promotions and direct marketing communications (CAP), BCAP codes (the UK Code of Broadcast Advertising), Clearcast and Radio Center for TV and Radio) by making copy changes which in HML’s reasonable opinion are necessary to ensure advertising messages are compliant both with the letter and spirit of the code. HML reserves the right to request source material from the Client to support any claim and also to remove claims which in its reasonable option are not supported by peer-reviewed research.

    9) In the event that HML’s stated payment terms are not met, the entitlement of the Client to any discounts applied to the Client’s original booking(s) is forfeited. In the event of late payment (i.e. payment outside of HML’s agreed payment terms), HML reserves the right to claim for payment in full from the Client as per its full current rates and reserves the right to charge statutory interest on that amount. Statutory interest is calculated at the rate of 8% per annum above the Bank Of England’s base rate, and is calculated daily. If HML exercises its right to charge statutory interest, it is calculated from the day after due date until payment is received by HML, and before as well as after judgement if applicable.
    HML’s invoice for interest charges shall be final and binding upon the Client.

    10) All reasonable efforts will be made by HML to fulfil its obligations, but should HML be prevented or delayed in carrying out any of their obligations by reason of an Act of God, war, lock-out, fire, flood, delays in transit, strikes, riots, postal delay or any other unexpected or exceptional causes or circumstances beyond their control the time for delivery shall be extended until a reasonable time after the event preventing or interfering with the due performance of HML’s obligations has ceased, and in no circumstances is HML to be liable for any consequential loss or damage suffered by the Client as a result thereof. For clarity, HML will not be liable for any loss occasioned by the failure of an advertisement to appear from any cause whatsoever.

    11) The terms of the contract as stated in HML’s order confirmation constitute the entire contract between the Client and HML. Any variations to the contract terms are only valid if signed by a director of HML.

    12) HML will use all reasonable endeavours to meet any performance dates agreed in the order confirmation, but any such dates are estimates only and failure to perform the services by such dates will not give the Client the right to terminate the contract. If HML’s performance of its obligations is prevented or delayed by any act or omission of the Client, its agents, subcontractors, consultants or employees (including without limitation the failure to meet a Content Deadline or Approval Deadline), then, without prejudice to any other right or remedy it may have, HML shall be allowed an extension of time to perform its obligations equal to the delay caused by the Client.

    13) While HML will take reasonable care of any material supplied by the Client whilst in HML’s custody, HML shall not be liable for loss or damage of material in transit or whilst with any third party.

    14) In the event that the Client is in default of its obligations under paragraph 5 (or gives notice that it does not intend to fulfil such obligations prior to the date for submission or approval of content) the Client agrees to pay HML as liquidated damages the lesser of:
    a) 100% of HML’s highest standard rates for the services prevailing at the date of this order or;
    b) the contract price as agreed between HML and the Client credit being given for any payments made by the Client in respect of this order prior to the default or notice.

    15) In the event that the Client enters into liquidation (whether compulsory or voluntary); company administration; or is placed into receivership; or comes to any arrangement with its creditors, whether formal or informal; or becomes unable to pay its liabilities as and when they fall due; or is presented with a valid winding-up petition by the court; or is subject to a successful winding-up petition by the court, those in control of the Client at the time (i.e. directors/partners/owners for, respectively, a limited company/partnership/sole trader), warrant that all outstanding debts will be paid to HML, and undertake to fulfil the payment liability personally, on a joint and several basis.

    16) In the event of any conflict between these standard terms and conditions and HML’s order confirmation, the order shall prevail.

    17a) Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, HML may terminate the contract with immediate effect by giving written notice to the Client if:

    (i) the Client fails to pay any amount due under the contract on the due date for payment; or

    (ii) the Client becomes subject to any of the events listed in Clause 15.

    (b) On termination of the contract:

    (i) the Client shall immediately pay to HML all of HML’s outstanding unpaid invoices and interest and, in respect of services supplied but for which no invoice has been submitted, HML shall submit an invoice, which shall be payable by the Client immediately on receipt;

    (ii) the Client shall return all of HML’s materials and any deliverables which have not been fully paid for.

    (c) Termination of the contract shall not affect any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities of the parties that have accrued up to the date of termination, including the right to claim damages in respect of any breach of the contract which existed at or before the date of termination.

    (d) Any provision of the contract that expressly or by implication is intended to come into or continue in force on or after termination of the contract shall remain in full force and effect.18) HML does not accept liability for printing errors, including variations in the quality of colour reproduction, and such variations shall not be deemed cause for the Client withholding payment.

    19a) All intellectual property rights in or arising out of or in connection with the services (other than intellectual property rights in any materials provided by the Client) will be owned by HML.

    (b) HML agrees to grant the Client a fully paid-up, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence during the term of the contract to copy the deliverables specified in the Client’s order (excluding materials provided by the Client) for the purpose of receiving and using the services and such deliverables in the Client’s business. The Client may not sub-license, assign or otherwise transfer the rights granted in this clause 19.

    (c) The Client agrees to grant HML a fully paid-up, non-exclusive, royalty-free, non-transferable licence to copy and modify any materials provided by the Client to HML for the term of the contract for the purpose of providing the services to the Client.

    (d) The Client shall indemnify HML in full against any sums awarded by a court against HML arising of or in connection with any claim brought against HML for infringement of a third party’s rights (including any intellectual property rights) arising out of, or in connection with, the receipt or use of any Client materials by the Supplier

    20) All disputes or complaints must be made in writing to HML as soon as the Client is aware and in any event within 28 days of publication.

    21) In no event shall the liability of HML for any breach of contract or in tort exceed the price paid by the Client for the services.

    22a) The Client may cancel a booking by agreeing to pay a severance fee. For the avoidance of doubt the first 50% of the contract price shall in no circumstances be refundable and the parties agree that in any event it is fair and reasonable for this 50% to be forfeited to reflect HML’s opportunity cost for allocating significant resource to this contract. In addition, the Client shall pay a severance fee to reflect any third party liabilities incurred by HML in relation to this contract plus any time costs incurred by HML over and above 50% of the contract price (up to a maximum of 100% of the contract price).

    (b) A separate cancellation invoice on 7-day terms will be raised by the accounts department, and the original invoice credited in full once payment is received.

    (c) In the event the cancellation invoice is not paid within terms, it will be cancelled and the full amount of the original contract will stand.
    (d) For the avoidance of doubt, for any digital campaigns that are already live, the cancellation fee is 100% of the contract value.
