Terms of Use

1. PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF APPLICATION

These GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE of the PUBLISUITES.COM website regulate the access, navigation and use of the websites under the domain “PUBLISUITES.COM” (hereinafter, “website”), as well as the responsibilities arising from the use of its contents (hereinafter understood as “Contents” to include texts, graphics, drawings, designs, codes, software, photographs, music, videos, sounds, databases, images, as well as any other creation protected by Spanish laws and international treaties on intellectual and industrial property).

It shall be understood that access to or mere use of the website by the user implies their adherence to the General Terms and Conditions of Use that PUBLISUITES S.L has published at the time they access the website and which will be available to users. Consequently, the user must carefully read these General Terms and Conditions of Use. In this sense, “User” shall be understood as the person who accesses, navigates, uses or participates in the services and activities, free or paid, developed throughout the PUBLISUITES.COM website, as well as in its subdomains.

Independently of these, PUBLISUITES S.L may establish specific conditions that regulate the use and/or contracting of specific services offered to users through the website.

The purpose of the website is to connect different agents in the online marketing market, these being “Publishers” and “Advertisers”, facilitating the actions that are specific to them within the advertising and marketing market through the platform made available to them. The consideration for this enablement is the payment of a price by the “Advertiser”, which is specified in the application of a percentage to the price that the advertising service providers agree with the client.

For the purposes of these terms of use, “Advertiser” is understood as any natural or legal person who accesses and registers on the website as such, whose role is to seek satisfaction of their marketing or advertising needs through the contracting of services offered by third parties or PUBLISUITES S.L itself.

The “Publishers” play the role of offering their marketing and advertising services, whose recipients are the “Advertisers”. The method through which they offer this service is by selling sponsored posts or articles that they publish on websites or blogs they own. Likewise, other agents operating in this market, Copywriters and Influencers, will be included within this category.

1. “Copywriters” shall be understood as those persons who use the website to offer themselves for the composition of articles that are subsequently used by “Advertisers” directly or by “Publishers”.

2. The final actors are the “Influencers”, who offer their services to “Advertisers” through the sale of social mentions.

Additionally, PUBLISUITES S.L. itself offers an advertising campaign management assistance service (Managed Service) whose characteristics and terms of use will be described in a specific conditions document.

Before using and/or contracting these specific services provided by PUBLISUITES S.L, the user must carefully read the corresponding Specific Conditions created for this purpose by PUBLISUITES S.L. The use and/or contracting of such specific services implies the acceptance of the Specific Conditions that regulate them in the version published by PUBLISUITES S.L at the time such use and/or contracting occurs.

2. USE OF THE WEBSITE AND REGISTRATION.

Navigation on the PUBLISUITES.COM website is free and free of charge in its essential uses. This access may be restricted by the company operating the website at any time. It is reiterated that access to or mere use of the website by the user implies their adherence to the General Terms and Conditions of Use that PUBLISUITES S.L has published at the time they access the website and which will be available to users.

To obtain the status of “Publisher” or “Advertiser”, effective registration as such on the “website” will be necessary. Due to organizational reasons, when registering on the website, Publishers, Copywriters and Influencers must register on the website as PUBLISHERS, to later define the service they wish to make available to ADVERTISERS.

Registration as an “Advertiser” on the website.

The registration as an Advertiser is done for free through the registration form that PUBLISUITES may include at any time, called “ADVERTISER REGISTRATION”. The advertiser must provide a series of data to the website with the sole purpose of managing their registration request in the most efficient manner. The effective registration of the user in the “Advertiser” section implies the acceptance of the General Conditions and the Particular ones that are applicable to them. The data provided by the advertiser in their profile will be reviewed by the PUBLISUITES.COM team for subsequent validation and compliance with the website’s quality criteria.

The data provided by the advertiser will be the exclusive responsibility of the latter, PUBLISUITES.COM is not responsible for the truthfulness or ownership of this information provided by the advertiser.

Randomly and only to meet quality standards, at PUBLISUITES.COM we apply protocols to validate and comply with the quality criteria of the website provided by the advertiser.

PUBLISUITES.COM reserves the right to reject at any time the user registration as an advertiser or invalidate any medium provided by the latter in order to meet quality criteria.

Registration as “Publisher” on the website.

Registration as a Publisher is done for free through the registration form that PUBLISUITES.COM may include at any time, called “PUBLISHER REGISTRATION”. The publisher must provide a series of data to the website with the sole purpose of managing their registration request in the most efficient manner. The effective registration of the user in the “Publisher” section implies the acceptance of the General Conditions and the Particular ones that are applicable to them. The data provided by the publisher, as well as the social accounts or websites registered in their profile, will be reviewed by the PUBLISUITES.COM team for subsequent validation and compliance with the website’s quality criteria. PUBLISUITES.COM reserves the right to reject at any time the registration of users, social profiles, or websites.

All those users who must register as Publishers, referring here specifically to the other modalities (Influencers, Writers, etc.) must also complete the registration form which, depending on the service they intend to offer on the platform, may involve verification by the PUBLISUITES team of certain aspects that ensure the quality and truthfulness of the information required for effective registration. According to the role to be acquired, the requirements are as follows:

– Writers: The writer must provide a series of data to the website with the sole purpose of managing their registration request in the most efficient manner. Additionally, and in order to guarantee their quality, writers are required to complete a small “access test”. If they do not pass it, it cannot be retaken. The effective registration of the user in the “Writer” section implies the acceptance of the General Conditions and the Particular ones that are applicable to them.

– Influencer: In addition to providing the basic data required by the form, it is a necessary requirement to add the social accounts that are intended to be offered as a vehicle for promotion, these having to accumulate a minimum of one thousand followers/fans. The effective registration of the user in the “Influencer” section implies the acceptance of the General Conditions and the Particular ones that are applicable to them.

Likewise, with the registration on the website, a wallet is made available to all registered users, with which they will carry out all monetary transfers that originate from the platform that PUBLISUITES makes available to users.

The individual conditions for each agent are described below.

TERMS OF USE FOR PUBLISHERS

I. ON THE CONDITION OF PUBLISHER.

As specified in section one of the general conditions, the status of publisher is acquired at the moment the user registers on the website as such and their entry in the “Publisher Registry” is recorded.

Once registered, the Publisher (whether publisher, writer, or influencer) must verify the websites or social accounts included in their publisher profile. The data provided by the publisher must be verified through the appropriate means and that PUBLISUITES S.L deems appropriate at any time to guarantee the quality and security of its service.

In no case will PUBLISUITES S.L be responsible for the veracity of the data provided by the publisher and reserves the right to cancel the publisher’s account if they provide false data or fail to verify the ownership of the submitted websites and social profiles within the appropriate timeframe.

II. ON THE NECESSARY QUALITY OF WEBSITES OWNED BY THE PUBLISHER.

PUBLISUITES.COM may not accept websites or blogs owned by the publisher when these are considered by the PUBLISUITES.COM quality team as:

– “Link farms”: those pages that have a large number of outgoing links, whether contextual or not, and that could harm our advertisers, either through a penalty in search engines, or with a LinkJuice transfer well below what would be expected from the service provided by PUBLISUITES.COM

– “Review farms”: we understand those pages that are dedicated to selling reviews in large quantities with the aim of monetizing their website. PUBLISUITES.COM considers that a blog or website is a review farm when the ratio between sponsored articles and own articles is less than 1 to 10 (1 sponsored article for every 10 own articles).

– “Low quality”: those pages that do not meet the minimum PA/DA, PR, or stylistic and optimization quality requirements for the PUBLISUITES.COM quality team.

– Websites with duplicate content, partially copied, translated or spun will not be accepted in the Publisher’s profile. Likewise, websites created using the Wix platform or containing advertising that prevents smooth navigation through the website will not be accepted either. This being the most common case, the company reserves the right not to accept any other websites that it understands do not meet the minimum standards to be offered on the platform.

III. REGARDING THE EXECUTION, NATURE, CONDITIONS AND DEADLINES OF THE ASSIGNED WORK.

The services offered by publishers must be 100% original and exclusive for the work contracted by the advertiser. The translation of texts in the writing of sponsored posts is strictly prohibited. Failure to comply with this guideline will result in the immediate closure of the publisher’s account as well as the withholding of earnings.

Likewise, the posts must be written by the publisher, who assumes full ownership of the text and exempts PUBLISUITES.COM from any responsibility, as well as the advertiser from the improper use of protected material. Sponsored posts can only contain the links indicated (from 1 to 4 maximum) by the advertiser in the order. External links not requested including affiliates may not be included.

Publisuites SL declines any responsibility with respect to possible disputes arising from the veracity of the information that advertisers provide for publication in the different media available on the platform, being the advertiser’s responsibility to defend themselves against any action derived from said responsibility.

All posts published by editors will have a minimum length of 500 words.

The cancellation of ongoing work accepted by publishers according to the advertisers’ specifications and once the corresponding balance has been deducted from the advertiser’s wallet will not be allowed.

The work developed by the publishers must comply with the specifications established by the advertisers.

The services provided by the publisher are PERMANENT in nature and therefore contracted posts cannot be deleted during the lifetime of the website. In the event that the website is deleted within a period of less than one year from the time the service is contracted with the advertiser, the amount paid by the client will be deducted from their wallet. In case of sale of the website, the contracted posts must be notified to the new owner to keep them, the sale not being an excuse to delete them.

Publishers have a period of 2 calendar days to accept the work and, for the completion of the work, the time limit is set by the advertiser. After this period, PUBLISUITES.COM understands that the publisher has not complied with the obligation and therefore may take appropriate measures so that its service is not interrupted by the publisher’s malpractice, specifically in the cancellation of the sent work. In no case will work submitted outside the previously described deadline be accepted.

If the advertiser considers that modifications should be made to the originally presented work, the editor will have 4 days to re-deliver the work with the relevant changes. If the deadline is not met, the work is considered not delivered and therefore cancelled.

Once the commissioned work has been completed and reviewed and approved by the advertiser, the amount for the service will be added to the editor’s wallet, acknowledging the right to receive the agreed amount. The advertiser’s approval will be limited to verifying that the mandate has been executed under the negotiated terms, and changes to the content or corresponding links that did not appear in the original terms of the assignment cannot be requested.

Article writing services

The writer exclusively transfers the exploitation rights of the intellectual property sold to the advertiser, granting them the ability to exploit the work excluding third parties, including the transferor, and authorizes them to grant non-exclusive authorizations to third parties. It also confers legitimacy, independent of the transferring owner, to pursue violations that affect the transferred faculties.

The writer, as the guarantor of the authorship of the works, exempts both the advertiser and Publisuites from all responsibility towards third parties, and consequently assumes all claims, including compensation for damages, that could be exercised against those mentioned above by third parties who may believe their intellectual or industrial property rights have been infringed upon regarding the works subject to the transfer.

IV. REGARDING POSSIBLE INCIDENTS RELATED TO THE COMMISSIONED WORK.

Below are listed the most common incidents recorded between editors and Advertisers. In any case, and even if not expressly mentioned, any anomaly must be mandatorily communicated to the website to organize a solution. Any incident that involves reimbursing the advertiser for the amount paid will result in a corresponding decrease in that amount from the editor’s wallet.

– Related to the disappearance of the post

1. In case of sale of the website or unsubscribing from PUBLISUITES.COM, the new owner must be notified so that sponsored posts sold on the platform are not deleted. Social mentions on Twitter must remain published for a minimum of 30 days.
2. In case of disappearance of the website within one year from the contract with the advertiser, the contract with the Editor will be cancelled and appropriate legal actions will be initiated to recover the amount paid.
3. In case of accidental deletion, the “website” will contact the editor to restore the link. In case of refusal, the amount will be deducted from the balance in their wallet.

– Change of post URL

1. The editor will be obligated to make a 301 redirect so that the post is available from Publisuites and to transfer traffic and SEO authority, regardless of whether the URL change is due to a modification in the domain address or in the post itself. The destination URL must be a valid URL.

– Change of link type (follow, nofollow or sponsored) when contracting the post

1. When contracting a post, the advertiser can choose the link type: follow, nofollow or sponsored. If the editor accepts the order, they also accept this condition as well as the requirements described by the advertiser in the “description” field and therefore must maintain it and not change the link type. In case of change, Publisuites will contact the editor to restore the link type. In case of refusal, the amount will be deducted from the balance in their wallet. If the editor does not accept the link type requested by the client, they can reject the order without any penalty.

V. REGARDING THE PAYMENT METHOD.

Payments will be made taking into account the appropriate tax withholdings for each type of editor and their tax regime. PUBLISUITES.COM is not responsible for the non-compliance of tax obligations of its editors and will consider the data provided by the editor in the “FISCAL DATA” section as valid.

In addition to the above, the payment order will only be processed if there is an invoice issued for the service provided. In the case of individuals who cannot issue an invoice, a payment receipt will be issued.

Payments will be made via PayPal or bank transfer.

Payments through PayPal system: The minimum credit to request payment via PayPal will be €5. The publisher assumes any possible fees this service may have, and PUBLISUITES.COM is not responsible in any case for any incident that may occur due to the use of this payment system or for the publisher’s non-compliance with PayPal’s general conditions.

Payments by bank transfer (valid only within the European Union): The minimum credit to request payment by bank transfer will be €25. The publisher will fully assume any fees that may arise from the use of this payment system.

Finally, a period of up to 10 business days may elapse between the payment request and the corresponding verifications and final payment by Publisuites.

VI. ON CONFIDENTIALITY.

Lastly, the publisher is bound to the strictest confidentiality regarding accepted, rejected, or canceled orders. In cases where the publisher does not comply with this obligation, Publisuites reserves the right to cancel the account and initiate legal actions to safeguard its interests and those of its clients.

VII. ON UNFAIR PRACTICES

Under no circumstances may the publisher offer their services directly to the advertiser using bypassing techniques or any other nature. Should such a situation occur, PUBLISUITES S.L reserves the right to initiate appropriate legal actions to safeguard its interests.

VIII. DISCLAIMER

Topics such as gambling, betting, marijuana, sex, medications, dating, tarot, esotericism, and any other subject that we consider sensitive and therefore should be treated with special care

PUBLISUITES S.L is configured as an intermediation platform, and although we work and put all our effort into ensuring that both ‘advertisers’ and ‘publishers’ comply with legislation and quality standards, we are not responsible for the use they may give to the platform. Strict monitoring of orders is not carried out as it is not the purpose of this platform.

When acquiring or selling a sponsored post, the user, whether publisher or advertiser, is solely responsible for complying with the regulations, laws, or legal precepts of the country to which the post is directed.

TERMS OF USE FOR ADVERTISERS

I. ON THE CONDITION OF ADVERTISER.

To obtain the status of ADVERTISER within the PUBLISUITES.COM system, only effective registration on the platform will be necessary. PUBLISUITES.COM reserves the right of access to its advertisers section after verification of the data provided by the same.

Once the advertiser’s account has been verified, the advertiser can start using the platform. Until then, their status will be that of a user. This deposit will be made in an exclusive wallet for each client of the website associated with their account, with which all payments will be made within the business traffic carried out on the platform.

II. ON PAYMENT CONDITIONS AND WALLET BALANCE MANAGEMENT

Wallet recharges can be made through the means specified in the advertiser panel, with the advertiser assuming any commissions that may arise from the method used for this purpose.

Once the deposit has been made in the wallet, it will appear in the advertiser’s account. The wallet balance will not be refundable under any circumstances and can only be used for the services offered at any given time by PUBLISUITES.COM.

PUBLISUITES.COM is not responsible for wallet deposit errors reported after 24 hours from the effective deposit. Otherwise, the money will not be refunded and will be recorded as a balance for use within the platform.

In any case, management expenses or commissions that may exist due to the advertiser’s deposit error will be at their expense and may be deducted by PUBLISUITES.COM from the final amount to be refunded.

All expenses incurred on the platform are subject to the appropriate taxes, which will be assumed by the advertiser through their wallet balance at all times. If the wallet balance is not sufficient to cover the total payment of the service plus the appropriate taxes, services cannot be contracted.

III. ON THE RIGHTS AND GUARANTEES REGARDING THE CONTRACTED WORK.

– Advertisers have the right to freely choose editors for sponsored posts as well as social media actions. Through our system, the advertiser can filter the editors that best suit their needs.

– For sponsored posts, the prices offered on the platform correspond to texts of around 500 words. Any increase in the number of words will be subject to a review of the post price.

– The category in which the contracted post will be published will respond to internal organization criteria by the editor, and the selection or change of category by the advertiser cannot be guaranteed.

– The advertiser has the right to supervise the contracted work and communicate to the editor, within 7 days, all the modifications they deem appropriate before approving the sponsored post or social media action. This way, the editor can submit the modified version of their work for new review within 4 days. Once 7 days have passed since the last version delivered by the editor, and the work is approved, it will NOT be possible to make modifications, understanding that you accept the work, and proceeding with the payment.

– Requesting changes in the content or corresponding links that did not appear in the terms of the original assignment is not allowed.

– Cancellation of ongoing work accepted by editors according to advertisers’ specifications and once the corresponding balance has been deducted from the advertiser’s wallet will not be allowed.

– In case the editor removes the sponsored post and the website remains active, we will refund the balance to your advertiser account if the eventuality occurs during the first six months from when the post was contracted.

– Types of links from press media or blogs:

Within the Publisuites.com platform, advertisers can select the type of link they want (‘follow’ or ‘no follow’) according to the needs they may have at the time of placing the order.

This distinction cannot be changed once the editor has completed the assignment and the advertiser has validated the delivered work.

In the event that a media outlet or blog is demonstrably penalized in its positioning by Google, they may change the type of link without prior notice to the advertiser, changing from ‘follow’ to ‘no follow’, according to the needs and guidelines that Google may propose at any time. In no case will Publisuites be responsible for such changes.

– If a social mention is deleted before 30 days from its publication and it is active, the balance will be refunded to the advertiser’s wallet.

– In case the website or social account has been permanently deleted during the first six months since the sponsored post or social mention was contracted, the money will be refunded to the wallet.

– The writer exclusively assigns the exploitation rights of the intellectual property sold to the advertiser, granting them the power to exploit the work to the exclusion of third parties, including the assignor themselves, and authorizes them to grant non-exclusive authorizations to third parties. Likewise, it confers legitimacy, independently of the assigning holder, to pursue violations that affect the faculties that have been assigned.

– The writer, as guarantor of the authorship of the works, exonerates both the advertiser and Publisuites from all responsibility towards third parties, and consequently assumes all claims, including compensation for damages, that could be exercised against the aforementioned by third parties who could understand their intellectual or industrial property rights infringed on the works subject to the assignment.

IV. OTHER WARNINGS.

PUBLISUITES.COM is not responsible in any case for the opinions or comments that the contracted services may provoke in the blogs, websites or social accounts of the editors, the latter being solely responsible.

V. CAMPAIGN MANAGEMENT THROUGH MANAGED SERVICE.

As reflected above, Publisuites offers a service to its clients in which it directly manages advertising campaigns.

Through this service, Publisuites receives the necessary briefing directly from the client to adjust the strategy to follow (themes, content types, link types, budget, deadline, etc.) and, with that feedback, manages all interactions with editors, handling the process, deadlines, and guaranteeing publication.

At the end of the first meeting, a budget is prepared based on the briefing, which is charged upon acceptance via PayPal or bank transfer.

The advantages of this modality are a significant reduction in execution times and benefiting from the discounts that Publisuites negotiates with service providers, as well as access to some content not visible to other clients.

In topics such as gambling, betting, marijuana, sex, medications, dating, tarot, esotericism, and any other subject we consider sensitive and therefore must be treated with special care

PUBLISUITES S.L will attend to the requests of clients using the Managed Service and will configure the offers for the benefit of advertisers and publishers who will be responsible for ensuring that their websites comply with legislation and quality standards. For this reason, we are not responsible for the use they may make of the platform, and strict monitoring of orders is not carried out, as this is not the purpose of this platform.

When acquiring or selling a sponsored post, the user, whether editor or advertiser, is solely responsible for complying with the regulations, laws, or legal precepts of the country to which the post is directed.

VI. ON UNFAIR PRACTICES.

Under no circumstances may the Advertiser negotiate directly with Editors for the contracting of their services using bypassing techniques or any other nature. Should such a situation occur, PUBLISUITES S.L reserves the right to initiate appropriate legal actions to safeguard its interests.

VII. DISCLAIMER.

Topics such as gambling, betting, marijuana, sex, medications, dating, tarot, esotericism, and any other subject we consider sensitive and therefore must be treated with special care
