The following Advertising Terms and Conditions constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede any previous agreements, warranties, representations, undertakings or understanding between the parties and may not be varied except in writing.

1. In these Conditions “Advertiser” shall mean advertising agency where an advertising agency is used and in any other case it shall mean the person, firm or company and/or its agent placing the order for an insertion of an advertisement, inserts, sponsorship (or advertorial), email campaign or online activity; and where an advertising agency is used the relationship between Wildfire Comms and the agency is that the order is and shall be treated as issued by the advertising agency as a principal and there shall be no contract between the agency’s client and Wildfire Comms, nor shall the agency’s client be able to claim upon the contract of the agency with Wildfire Comms.
2. Advertisements are accepted subject to copy and illustrations being in accordance with the standards of Wildfire Comms and subject to space being available and subject to the status of the Advertiser itself. Wildfire Comms reserves the right to refuse an advertisement.
3. Any bookings made verbally by the Advertiser shall be conditional upon and subject to acceptance by Wildfire Comms’ pursuant to this.

6. Wildfire Comms will not be liable for any loss or damage direct to consequential, occasioned by error in the insertion of or omission to insert any advertisement or for late publication of an advertisement or failure to perform any other obligation whether occasioned by negligence or otherwise save in cases occasioned by the direct act of Wildfire Comms in which case compensation may be negotiated up to a maximum of the cost of the space booked and paid for by the Advertiser.
7. All orders are accepted at the Advertiser’s risk. Wildfire Comms will not accept any responsibility for loss of circulation or ineffectiveness of any issue owing to circumstances beyond its direct control.
8. Advertisement rates are subject to increase at any time. Advertisers will be notified and will have the option to cancel without surcharge or continue at the revised rates.
9. Wildfire Comms will not be bound by notice of cancelled orders, or transfers of advertisements received less than twelve weeks before publication date.

11. If an Advertiser cancels the balance of a contract, he relinquishes any right to any series discount to which he was previously entitled and those advertisements which do not appear will be charged for at the appropriate rate. The Advertiser will be charged for the balance between any discount and the full rate for any advertisements that have run prior to the contract being cancelled.
12. Where the Advertiser has undertaken to supply material for advertisement/insert and such material has been accepted by Wildfire Comms, we reserve the right to charge the full rate agreed for the advertisement/insert if such material fails to arrive at the agreed time, place or in suitable condition for insertion and in the case of advertisements to repeat the most appropriate copy.
