THE PUBLISHER‘S OBLIGATIONS

  1. The publisher will endeavor to reproduce and prepare colour and mono advertisements as requested but cannot guarantee that reproduction will meet its normal standards. In any event the publisher shall have no liability where the buyer has supplied material not in accordance with the publisher‘s specifications as set out in the rate card or as available on request.

  1. The buyer may cancel an advertisement only in accordance with this clause 15. The buyer‘s right to cancel depends upon whether he or she is a “consumer” (as that term is defined in the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulation 2000 (the “Regulations”)) or not (ie a “trade buyer”) as follows:

(a) A “consumer” buyer as defined in the Regulations may cancel the placement of an advertisement at any time up to the expiry of seven working days beginning with the day after the day on which the “consumer” buyer places its order for an advertisement. However, the “consumer” buyer accepts that if the publisher commences providing services in relation to the placing of the advertisement prior to the expiry of such seven day cancellation period with the “consumer” buyers agreement, the “consumer” buyer will lose his or her right to cancel. To simplify, the “consumer” buyer agrees that (i) in respect of online advertisements the publisher will start to provide services by 4:30pm, on the deadline day of the publication of the advertisement (ii) in respect of advertisements including an on-line element the publisher will start to provide services as soon as the advertisement is visible on-line. In either case the “consumer” buyer accepts that he/she will not have any right to cancel the advertisement unless the publisher is notified prior to the commencement of service provision.

(b) A trade buyer may cancel at any time between placing the order and by 12 o‘clock on the deadline day of the publication of the advertisement.

Upon cancellation, the buyer shall be entitled to a full refund. If the buyer is deemed unable to pay its debts within section 123 of the Insolvency Act 1986, this may be treated as a cancellation.

 

  1. Without prejudice to the publisher‘s entitlement to be paid, in the event of any error in the publishing of the advertisement caused by the act or omission of the publisher, the publisher at its sole discretion may either re-insert the advertisement or make a reasonable refund of or adjustment to the cost. No re-insertion, refund or adjustment will be made where the error, misprint or omission does not materially detract from the advertisement.

 

  1. There is no obligation on the publisher to supply voucher copies, tear sheets or other acceptable facsimile, illustrating publication and their absence shall not affect the buyer‘s liability for payment.

 

  1. These Advertising Terms and Conditions apply to advertisements published within Buy Now Kenya ‘s portfolio.
