The Order and these Terms and Conditions constitute a binding contract between Company and Opera and are collectively referred to herein as the “Agreement.” This Agreement governs the placement of Company’s promotional campaigns within advertising inventory owned and operated by Opera (“O&O”), and/or inventory which Opera has a contractual right to provide (“Third Party Inventory”, and with O&O collectively the “Opera Property”). In case of conflict between these Terms and Conditions and an Order, the latter shall prevail.</p> <p><strong>1. Terms Of Payment.</strong> Company shall pay all applicable fee and charges in connection with the Opera Property provided under the Agreement. In the event Company fails to make payments within time the period agreed between the parties (a) any overdue amounts shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (or, if less, the highest rate permitted by applicable law) from the date when payment is due until the date payment is received; (b) Company shall be responsible for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Opera in collecting such amounts; and (c) Opera reserves the right to suspend performance of its obligations under the Agreement or any other agreement with Company and take any other action permitted under its terms of service.</p> <p><strong>2. Taxes.</strong> All payments/fees under the Agreement are exclusive of customs, taxes, duties, VAT or excises in any form. Company will (a) pay all taxes (including excise, sales, use, consumption or value-added taxes), customs or import duties, or any other taxes, levies, tariffs, duties or governmental fees that are due or payable in connection with this Agreement (“Taxes”), with the exception of taxes on Opera´s net income, and (b) to the extent that Company is required to pay or withhold any Taxes in connection with this Agreement, Company will gross up the payment owed to Opera such that Opera shall receive the same amount as if such Taxes had not applied. Each party agrees to cooperate in good faith with respect to reasonable requests from the other party regarding tax-related forms, documentation or other information relating to this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate.</p> <p><strong>3. Provision of Materials.</strong> Company will provide the advertising media, links, graphics, icons, and such other items (collectively, “Materials”) as may be necessary for Opera to publish the agreed promotion, link and/or advertisement (“Advertisement”). The Materials shall be provided in accordance with Opera’s policies and specifications in effect from time to time, including (without limitation) the manner of transmission to Opera, the lead-time prior to publication, and the requirements set forth herein. Opera shall not be required to publish any Materials that are not received in accordance with such policies and specifications and reserves the right to charge Company, at the rate specified in the Order, for Opera property held, pending receipt of acceptable Materials from Company which are past due. Company hereby grants to Opera a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, fully paid license to store, use, reproduce and display the Materials (and the contents, trademarks and brand features contained therein) in accordance herewith. In cases when Opera, at its sole discretion, decides that for the purposes of the agreed promotion the Materials need to be modified, Opera may perform such modifications and present them to Company for acceptance. If aforesaid modifications are not promptly declined (within maximum 3 business days), they are deemed to be accepted and the abovementioned license covers the modified Materials as well.</p> <p><strong>4. Right To Reject.</strong> Opera reserves the right to reject or cancel any Advertisement (or any element thereof), Order, Materials, campaign, URL or other link, space reservation or position commitment, at any time, for any reason whatsoever, including belief by Opera that the relevant Advertisement, Material or activity may subject Opera to criminal or civil liability or is otherwise adverse to Opera’s business interests. The fact that Opera has not rejected an Advertisement shall in no way reduce, limit or otherwise affect Company’s responsibility and obligations under this Agreement. In the event Opera exercises its right to reject hereunder, Opera shall notify Company in writing. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Order, the Agreement is non-cancellable by Company.</p> <p><strong>5. Positioning.</strong> Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Order, positioning of Advertisements within the targeted Opera Property is at the sole discretion of Opera. Opera may, at its sole discretion, modify or remove any portion of the targeted Opera Property (and use commercially reasonable efforts to substitute with similar inventory). Although Opera will use reasonable efforts to comply with start and end dates, Opera does not guarantee the date or dates of insertion of the Advertisement(s) and does not guarantee that the Advertisement(s) will not be displayed after the end date specified.</p> <p><strong>6. Delivery And Usage Statistics.</strong> Unless specified otherwise in the Order, Opera makes no guarantees with respect to usage statistics, levels of impressions, click-throughs, leads generated or actions taken, including without limitations, completed program downloads or installations. Possible reasons for differences between reported initiated and reported completed downloads or installations include, but are not limited to: (a) mobile device connection failures, (b) inconsistency in download directories among mobile devices, and (c) failures of applications to operate on certain mobile devices.</p> <p><strong>7. Reporting.</strong> Unless reporting by Company or a third party is expressly agreed to in the Order, the following shall apply: (a) Company acknowledges that delivery statistics provided by Opera are the definitive and binding measurements of Opera’s performance on any delivery obligations provided in the Order; (b) no other measurements or usage statistics (including those of Company) shall be accepted by Opera or have bearing on the Agreement; (c) Opera shall own all campaign data obtained as a result of the display of the Advertisement(s), including click through rates, conversion rates, and any user data (“Campaign Data”); and (d) Company may use Campaign Data only as reasonably necessary to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, and shall comply with Section 8 and all applicable laws in using Campaign Data.</p> <p><strong>8. Privacy & Use Of Data.</strong> 8.1. Unless expressly agreed to in the Order, the parties do not intend that any personal data (as defined under applicable law) of end users will be exchanged between them in the performance of the Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and only when applicable, the Parties (acting on their own behalf or on behalf of their respective affiliates) agree to further specify their respective rights and obligations as regards data privacy in a separate data processing or data transfer agreement in compliance with applicable law. Where applicable, such separate agreement may include or consist of the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission as may be updated from time to time. Under no circumstances will the parties exchange sensitive personal data, or target children.</p> <p>8.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party agrees that its own collection of user personal data (if any) will be conducted as an independent data controller. Accordingly, each party represents and warrants that; (a) it will comply with all applicable law regarding the processing of personal data; (b) it has a sufficient legal basis under applicable law to process such personal data; c) it will implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the security of such personal data in accordance with applicable law; (d) to the extent necessary it will provide the other party with all reasonable assistance to fulfill any obligations under applicable law, including to provide notifications pertaining to a data breach or in responding to user rights requests; (e) it will abide by its own policies as regards the retention and use of personal data, and will not retain personal data longer than the necessary to accomplish the purpose for which is was originally collected.</p> <p>8.3. Opera reserves the right to terminate this Agreement immediately in the event of a violation of this Section or, if in the reasonable determination of Opera, the subject privacy policy(ies) do not adequately disclose information collection practices.</p> <p><strong>9. Advertising Standards.</strong> Company shall during the term of the Agreement ensure its compliance with (a) <a href="https://legal.opera.com/contract/advertising-standards/">Advertising Standards For Opera Inventory</a>, as updated from time to time (b) all applicable laws and regulations (iii) undertake commercially reasonable steps to ensure compliance with all applicable industry self-regulatory rules, codes and guidelines, including (without limitation and as applicable), the rules, codes and guidelines of the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB), the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI), the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA). Company shall ensure that the advertisements do not contain any item that is misleading, inaccurate, or that makes fraudulent or unfair competitive claims or that makes insufficiently supported claims or claims that distort the true meaning or practical application of statements made. Additionally, the Advertisements shall not contain or promote material that contains malware of any kind, including without limitation viruses, worms, Trojans, spyware, or adware, nor material that is offensive or which violates any provision of applicable law and regulations (including but not limited to, libel, copyright, trademark, right of privacy, etc.). Advertisements must comply with standards of decency and good taste. Opera will decide, in its sole discretion, whether the content, material or services provided in or through Company complies with these standards. Company agrees to cooperate in promptly editing, changing or stopping any Advertisement that Opera in good faith believes to be in violation of these advertising standards.</p> <p><strong>10. Company Representations.</strong> Company represents and warrants that:</p> <p>10.1. It holds the necessary rights to permit the use of the Materials by Opera and that none of the Materials provided by Company or Advertisements will: (a) infringe on any third party’s copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, right of privacy or other proprietary rights or intellectual property rights; (b) violate any applicable law, statute, ordinance or regulation; (c) be defamatory or trade libelous; (d) be pornographic or obscene; or (e) contain viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time bombs, or other similar harmful or deleterious programming routines;</p> <p>10.2. It contracts with Opera as principal, notwithstanding that the Company may be acting as an advertising agency or media buyer or in some other representative capacity;</p> <p>10.3. That the Advertisements, as well as the linked websites and operations conducted via those websites and the advertising of such websites and operations, are lawful in the territory in which such Advertisements are to be displayed;</p> <p>10.4. That all sites linked to via an Advertisement, shall conspicuously post a privacy policy that at a minimum (a) describes how the site operator collects, uses, stores and discloses information obtained from visitors to such site, and (b) instructs visitors how to opt-out of the collection of such information; and that it will not target users based on sensitive personal data, and it will not target children under the age of 18; and</p> <p>10.5. That neither the Company nor its directors, officers, or controlling shareholders are subject to applicable sanctions, including those administered by the European Union, United States, or the United Nations, and agrees to cooperate with Opera in good faith to provide information or documentation to establish the same and comply with Opera’s know-your-customer practices.</p> <p><strong>11. Indemnification.</strong> Company agrees, at its own expense, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Opera, its subsidiaries, and their employees, representatives, agents and affiliates, against any and all expenses, losses or liability of any kind (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred in connection with any claims, administrative proceedings or criminal investigations of any kind arising out of actual or alleged breach of any of Company’s representations, warranties or covenants hereunder, and/or the publication of Company’s Advertisements and/or any site, material, product or service to which users can link through such Advertisements (including without limitation, any claim of trademark or copyright infringement, defamation, breach of confidentiality, privacy violation, false or deceptive advertising, fraud or sales practices).</p> <p><strong>12. Disclaimer Of Warranties.</strong> Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all services are provided by Opera “As Is” and Opera hereby expressly disclaims all warranties, express or implied, regarding Opera’s services or any portion thereof, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement and implied warranties arising from course of dealing or course of performance.</p> <p><strong>13. Limitations Of Liability.</strong> In the event Opera fails to publish an Advertisement in accordance with the Order in any respect, the sole liability of Opera to Company and Company’s sole remedy shall be limited to, at Opera’s sole discretion, either: (a) a pro rata refund of the fee paid; (b) placement of the Advertisement at a later time in a comparable position; or (c) extension of the term of the Order until the contracted impressions are delivered. In no event shall Opera be responsible for any indirect, consequential, special, punitive or other damages, including, without limitation, lost revenue or profits, in any way arising out of or related to the agreement or publication of any Advertisement(s), even if Opera has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Opera does not limit or exclude liability for death or personal injury caused by its negligence. Without limiting the foregoing, Opera will have no liability for any failure or delay resulting from any governmental action, fire, flood, insurrection, earthquake, power failure, riot explosion, embargo, strikes whether legal or illegal, labour or material shortage, transportation interruption of any kind, work slowdown or any other condition beyond the control of Opera affecting production or delivery in any manner.</p> <p><strong>14. Confidentiality.</strong> The Agreement and all communications exchanged between Company and Opera are confidential and shall not be disclosed to any third party (other than the qualified accountants or legal advisors of the parties). If the parties have executed a non-disclosure agreement (“NDA”) such NDA is incorporated into the Agreement by this reference.

Any additional or different terms and conditions included on any documentation or purchase order provided by Company will be null and void. In the event that any provision of the Agreement is held by a court or government agency to be void, voidable, or unenforceable, the remaining portions hereof shall remain in full force and effect. The waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of the Agreement will not operate or be interpreted as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. All outstanding payment obligations, and such other provisions which by their nature should survive, will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement. The Agreement may be executed in counterparts, via telefacsimile or exchange of PDF or similar electronic document format, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. The parties to this Agreement are independent contractors, and no agency, partnership, joint venture or employee-employer relationship is intended or created by this Agreement. All rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative.</p> <p><strong>17.

Choice of Law & Venue.</strong></p> <p>19.1. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales, except that body of laws controlling conflict of laws.</p> <p>19.2. Any claim, dispute or controversy between the parties arising out of or in relation to this Agreement, which cannot be satisfactorily settled by the parties shall be finally settled by arbitration upon the written request of either party, in accordance with the rules of the London Court of International Arbitration (the ‘LCIA’), which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this clause. The place of arbitration shall be London, England. The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English by a single arbitrator. The award shall be final and binding upon both parties. The cost of arbitration, including but not limited to the arbitrator´s fee and the administrative fees of the LCIA, shall be borne equally by the parties, unless the arbitral tribunal decides otherwise in its final award.</p> <p>19.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring proceedings in any court of any state for the purpose of seeking: (a) an injunction, order or other non-monetary relief which could not be obtained by using the LCIA; or (b) any relief or remedy which, if it (or its equivalent) were granted by the LCIA, would not be enforceable in such other states. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement a person who is not a party to this Agreement shall have no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to rely upon or enforce any term of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right or remedy of a third party which exists or is available other than as a result of such Act.</p> <script> var acc = document.getElementsByClassName("accordion"); var i; for (i = 0; i < acc.length; i++) { acc[i].addEventListener("click", function() { this.classList.toggle("active"); var panel = this.nextElementSibling; if (panel.style.display === "block") { panel.style.display = "none"; } else { panel.style.display = "block"; } }); } </script> </div> </section> </main> <footer class="hf hf__footer"> <div class="language-selector float-container"> <select id="langSelector"> <option value="" style="display:none">Language</option> <option value="en" selected>English</option><option value="pt-br" >Português</option><option value="de" >Deutsch</option><option value="pl" >Polski</option><option value="es" >Español</option><option value="ua" >українська</option> </select> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).on("change", "#langSelector", function () { var s = $(this).children("option:selected").val(); if (s === 'en') { window.location.pathname = "/contract/insertion-order/"; } else { window.location.pathname = "/" + s + "/contract/insertion-order/"; } }); </script> </div> <div class="wrapper container-fluid"> <div class="breadcrumbs"> <div class="breadcrumbs__container"> <div class="breadcrumbs__crumb breadcrumbs__logo breadcrumbs__sep"> <a href="https://opera.com"> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 16 16"> <path fill="#B3B3B3" fill-rule="evenodd" d="M8.03 0a7.97 7.97 0 0 1 5.302 2.036 5.773 5.773 0 0 0-3.206-.98c-1.905 0-3.612.945-4.76 2.436-.884 1.044-1.457 2.587-1.496 4.32v.377c.04 1.732.612 3.275 1.497 4.32 1.147 1.49 2.854 2.435 4.759 2.435 1.17 0 2.265-.357 3.203-.978-2.049.997-3.962.297-4.594-.14 2.015-.441 3.538-2.878 3.538-5.826 0-2.948-1.523-5.385-3.538-5.827.632-.436 2.545-1.136 4.597-.136a7.979 7.979 0 0 1 2.662 5.655L16 8c0 2.37-1.03 4.499-2.668 5.963l-.002.001-.226.196a7.967 7.967 0 0 1-5.485 1.83A8 8 0 0 1 8 0h.03z"></path> </svg> </a> </div> <ol itemscope="" itemtype="https://schema.org/BreadcrumbList"><li itemprop="itemListElement" itemscope="" itemtype="https://schema.org/ListItem" class="breadcrumbs__sep"><div class="breadcrumbs__crumb"><a itemprop="item" href="/" class="hover-line"><span itemprop="name" class="hover-line__element">Opera Legal Documents</span></a><meta itemprop="position" content="1"></div></li><li itemprop="itemListElement" itemscope="" itemtype="https://schema.org/ListItem" class="breadcrumbs__sep"><div class="breadcrumbs__crumb"><a itemprop="item" href="/contract/" class="hover-line"><span itemprop="name" class="hover-line__element">Opera Group Contractual Documents</span></a><meta itemprop="position" content="1"></div></li><li itemprop="itemListElement" itemscope="" itemtype="https://schema.org/ListItem" class="breadcrumbs__sep"><div class="breadcrumbs__crumb"><a itemprop="item" href="/contract/insertion-order/" class="hover-line"><span itemprop="name" class="hover-line__element">Insertion Order Standard Terms and Conditions</span></a><meta itemprop="position" content="1"></div></li></ol> </div> </div> <div class="footer__bottom"> <div class="footer__company-box center-xs start-md color--black-30"> <p class="footer__company-box-p">© 1995-2024 Opera Norway AS</p> <p class="footer__company-box-p">All rights reserved</p> </div> </div> </div> </footer> </body> </html>
