October 2025

Australia & New Zealand Media Buys Only

This is an Addendum (“Addendum”) to the IAB Standard Terms and Conditions for Internet Advertising for Media Buys One Year or Less, Version 3.0 (“IAB Terms”). Media Company and Advertiser (or Agency, as agent for Advertiser) agree that the IAB Terms, as modified by this Addendum, shall govern the placement of advertising on any digital media property sold by Media Company to Advertiser pursuant to an IO signed by both Media Company and Advertiser (or its Agency). Media Company and Advertiser (or its Agency) agree to be bound by the IAB Terms as modified by this Addendum. The terms of the IO, along with the IAB Terms and this Addendum (collectively, the “Agreement”) supersede all terms and conditions previously agreed upon. To the extent anything in this Addendum conflicts with the IAB Terms and/or any other terms included or referenced in the applicable IO, this Addendum shall control unless it is expressly noted in the IO that such terms supersede any conflicting terms in this Addendum. Capitalized terms used and defined in the IAB Terms shall have the same meaning when used in this Addendum unless otherwise stated herein.

The IAB Terms are hereby modified and/or supplemented as follows:

  1. For IOs entered into directly between Advertiser and Media Company, all references to “Agency” in the IAB Terms and this Addendum shall refer to the Advertiser and Sections X.c and XII.h of the IAB Terms shall not apply. For IOs entered into between Agency and Media Company, Agency represents and warrants that it has the legal authority to bind Advertiser to all rights, duties and obligations in this Agreement.
  2. The term “Policies” as referenced in the IAB Terms shall include any policies regarding the use of tags, pixels, JavaScript, cookies and any other technology now known or hereafter developed that is designed to collect, access, use, disclose or track users’ data, including online behavior or activity.
  3. The Policies applicable to Advertisers and Agencies shall be as set forth in any media plan, IO, online link or written communication provided by Media Company to Advertiser (or its Agency), and shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
  4. In connection with Section II(a) of the IAB Terms, Media Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to create a reasonably balanced delivery schedule; provided that Advertiser and Agency acknowledge that, given the nature of Media Company’s business, impressions on Sites may substantially fluctuate at times based on consumer demand for special events and seasonality.
  5. In connection with Section II(d) of the IAB Terms, Advertiser (or its Agency) will provide Media Company with Editorial Adjacency Guidelines in connection to an IO prior to signing the IO.  If Advertiser (or its Agency) fails to provide clear Editorial Adjacency Guidelines to Media Company prior to signing the IO (including but not limited to inclusion and/or exclusion Site list, competitive separation, any updates to the Editorial Adjacency Guidelines or Site list, etc.), Media Company shall not be liable for non-compliance.  In the event Media Company does not agree to the Editorial Adjacency Guidelines, Media Company must notify Advertiser (or its Agency) in writing, and Advertiser and Media Company will cooperate in good faith to find a mutually agreeable resolution.
  6. The following is added to Section III(b) of the IAB Terms: “In the event of nonpayment, and without limiting any other remedies, Media Company may offset any amounts due Media Company against any amounts due from Media Company to Advertiser (or Agency on its behalf) under any agreement or IO, or may offset such amounts against any charges for media to be delivered by Media Company.”
  7. Section IV(a) of the IAB Terms is deleted.
  8. The first paragraph of Section IV(b) is deleted and replaced with the following: “If Media Company is serving the campaign, Media Company will, on request by the Advertiser or Agency, make reporting available at such frequency as may be agreed between the parties. Reports will be broken out and summarized by such variables as may be agreed between the parties.
  9. The first sentence of Section IV(c) of the IAB Terms is deleted.
  10. The first sentence of the second paragraph of Section IV(c) of the IAB Terms is deleted and replaced with the following: “If Agency informs Media Company that Media Company has delivered a materially incomplete or materially inaccurate report, or no report at all where one has been requested, Media Company will cure such failure within five (5) business days of receipt of such notice.”
  11. Section V(a) of the IAB Terms is deleted and replaced with the following: “a.  Without Cause.  Advertiser and Agency acknowledge and agree that obligations under an IO are non-cancellable, except as permitted under Section V(b).
  12. The first sentence of Section VI(a) of the IAB Terms is deleted and replaced with the following: “Media Company will monitor delivery of the Ads and will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Advertiser or Agency either electronically or in writing as soon as practicable if Media Company believes that an under-delivery is likely.
  13. Section VI(b) of the IAB Terms is deleted and replaced with the following:
    “b.  Makegood Procedure. If actual Deliverables for any campaign fall below guaranteed levels, as set forth on the IO, and/or if there is an omission of any Ad (placement or creative unit), Media Company will provide mutually agreed inventory as a makegood to the Advertiser.
  14. Section VI(c) of the IAB Terms shall also apply to any bonus Deliverables included in an IO.
  15. The first sentence of Section VII(a) of the IAB Terms is deleted and replaced with the following: “Where Agency uses a Third Party Ad Server, Media Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to not bonus more than 10% above the Deliverables specified on the IO without the prior written consent of Agency.”  If Advertiser or Agency fails to provide Media Company with all Advertising Materials at least one (1) business day prior to the scheduled flight date for such Deliverables (as specified in the IO), then Media Company will not be obligated to honor any line item, weekly, monthly or quarterly impressions caps or pay Ad serving charges incurred by Advertiser (or Agency on its behalf) to the extent such charges are associated with over-delivery by more than 10% above the guaranteed or capped levels.  In addition, failure to provide Advertising Materials after 72 hours of flight start relieves Media Company of requirement to adhere to flat delivery over course of the campaign.”
  16. Section IX(a) of the IAB Terms is amended by replacing “Section V(c)” with “Section V(b)”.
  17. The following is added to Section IX(d) of the IAB Terms: “If Advertiser or Agency fails to provide Media Company with Advertising Materials to replace such damaged, non-compliant or otherwise unacceptable Advertising Materials prior to the scheduled start of the media flight, Advertising Materials will be deemed ‘late’ pursuant to subsection IX(b).”
  18. The following is added to Section IX(f) of the IAB Terms: “All use of Third Party Ad Server tags shall comply with Section XII(d)(i) and Media Company’s Policies including, without limitation, policies regarding use of tags, pixels, JavaScript, cookies and any other technology now known or hereafter developed that is designed to track users’ online behavior or activity.  Media Company will make commercially reasonable efforts to support Third Party Ad Serving on all platforms and devices. Implementation instructions should be included with the delivery of the tags if non-standard implementation is required.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agency and Advertiser acknowledge that not all platforms and devices support all Third Party Ad Servers and such platforms and devices may require Media Company’s ad server to deliver the campaign.”
  19. The following new subsections are added to Section IX of the IAB Terms:
    “h.  Media Company Advertising Materials; Custom Materials.  Excluding Advertising Materials provided by Advertiser, Media Company shall own and retain all right, title and interest in any materials, content or technology it creates, or otherwise uses, for the media buy pursuant to the IO, including any Custom Materials.  Advertiser agrees that it shall not at any time assert or claim any interest in, or do anything that may adversely affect the validity or enforceability of, any intellectual property or other proprietary right belonging to Media Company hereunder. Media Company (or its Affiliate) and Advertiser (or Agency) may enter into a promotion agreement or custom materials agreement (the “Promotion Agreement“) that shall control and govern the Custom Materials specified in the IO, which may include, but not be limited to social media deliverables, custom video integrations, microsites, sponsored editorial sections, rich media, sweepstakes, contests and other promotions. Except as set out in any Promotional Agreement, Advertiser must not use any Custom Materials for any purpose other than advertising through Media Company as specified in the IO. Advertiser owns and/or will obtain all rights and pay any fees necessary for the license of any Advertising Materials provided by Advertiser for inclusion in Custom Materials. In the event of any inconsistency between the Agreement or any other advertising terms provided by Advertiser/Agency and any Promotion Agreement, the Promotion Agreement will supersede and prevail with respect to the Custom Materials.”
    “i. No Use of Media Company Intellectual Property. Except as expressly provided on the IO, Advertiser shall not use or assist any other person or entity in using the intellectual property of Media Company, its parent or affiliated companies including, but not limited to, the following: the names “ESPN”, “The Walt Disney Company”, “Disney”, “ABC”, “Hulu”, “Lucasfilm”, “National Geographic”, “Nat Geo”, “FX”, , “Star”, “Pixar”, “Star Wars”, or “Marvel” (either alone, in conjunction with or as a part of any other word, name, phrase or mark), or any fanciful characters or designs of The Walt Disney Company or any of its related, affiliated or subsidiary companies (a) in any advertising, publicity or promotion or other disclosure, (b) in any in-house publication, (c) to express or imply any endorsement of any product or service, or (d) in any other manner or for any purpose whatsoever.”

Media Company will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Agency, Advertiser, and each of its Affiliates and Representatives from damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively, “Losses”) resulting from any claim, judgment, or proceeding (collectively, “Claims”) brought by a Third Party and resulting from Media Company’s alleged breach of the Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Claim under this Section X(a) was caused, or contributed to, by a negligent or unlawful act or omission of the Advertiser or the Agency, the liability under this section is proportionally reduced to the extent the Claim was caused, or contributed to, by the Advertiser or the Agency by such negligent, wrongful or unlawful act or omission.

  22. Section XII(d)(i) of the IAB Terms is deleted and replaced with the following: “Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Advertiser agrees that any information or data (including, without limitation, End User Information, User Volunteered Data, Performance Data and Site Data) collected, accessed, tracked, generated, transmitted, retained, recorded, used or disclosed (collectively, “Processed”) by Advertiser, Agency and any Advertiser Vendor, including, without limitation, Third Party Ad Servers and Third Party ad verification vendors, is subject to Media Company’s prior written approval and shall be for the sole purpose of measuring the frequency, reach, and/or effectiveness of the campaign and not for any other purpose.  Without limiting the foregoing, unless otherwise authorized by Media Company in advance in writing, Advertiser agrees that it will not, and will cause Agency and any Advertiser Vendor not to, (A) collect any Personal Information and use any End User Information for the purpose of obtaining Personal Information, (B) use End User Information, alone or in combination with any other data, to personally (re-)identify, or attempt to personally (re-)identify, any end user, (C) aggregate, append, combine or enhance End User Information with any other Personal Information, and (D) share or transfer information or data Processed by Advertiser, Agency and any Advertiser Vendor with any Third Party for such Third Party’s use, other than by Advertiser or Agency to an Advertiser Vendor to perform the IO.

  25. Section XIII(b) of the IAB Terms is deleted and replaced with the following: “If both parties are tracking delivery, the measurement used for invoicing advertising fees under an IO (“Controlling Measurement”) will be determined by Media Company’s ad server unless explicitly noted and agreed to in the IO. Advertiser and Agency agree that any Third Party Ad Server and secondary serving or tracking vendors of the Advertiser or Agency require Media Company’s prior written approval for each campaign, which Media Company may withhold in its sole discretion.

Any targeting criteria or frequency capping for any Media Buy must be specified in the IO. Advertiser and Agency acknowledge that any targeting criteria or frequency capping will change impression estimates and CPM, and therefore any targeting criteria or frequency capping not specified in the IO cannot be used for ad trafficking.”
  31. The following new section (i) is added to Section XIV of the IAB Terms: “Vendor Fees. Any fees associated with vendors which provide services to Agency or Advertiser such as Third Party Ad Serving, rich media ad serving, secondary serving or tracking, or any other vendors employed by Agency and Advertiser shall be the sole responsibility of Agency or Advertiser and not Media Company.”
  32. The following new section (j) is added to Section XIV of the IAB Terms: “Research Studies. Any research studies that Media Company provides pursuant to the IO are the property of Media Company.  Media Company grants Advertiser the right to use the research studies; provided that Advertiser treats such studies as Media Company’s Confidential Information.  Advertiser may only share the results of the research studies with third parties (who are not performing research-related services for Advertiser) with Media Company’s prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.  In such event, Advertiser agrees to anonymize and aggregate the data so that Media Company, its affiliates, or any individual identified in the study cannot be directly or indirectly identified.”
