Advertising Terms

1. Who this applies to

These terms apply to anyone who submits an ad request through /advertise — a brand ad or a featured-listing request — whether or not it's ultimately approved.

2. Every request is reviewed by hand

There is no self-serve ad auction and no public price list. AD reviews every request, decides whether to approve it, and sets a price based on placement and area from the budget range you give us. Submitting a request does not guarantee it will be approved, run, or perform to any particular standard — AD makes no guarantee of placement, impressions, clicks, or bookings from any ad.

3. Where ads run

Ads run only on discovery pages — the home page, search results, and category/city pages — and never on a business's own booking page, the booking flow itself, or an embedded widget. Every ad is clearly labelled “Sponsored”, consistent with FTC guidance.

4. Your warranties

By submitting a request, you confirm that:

• you own, or are licensed to use, everything in the ad (images, text, and the linked page);
• the linked page is not deceptive, illegal, or infringing; and
• the ad and the linked page comply with these terms and our Acceptable Use & Community Guidelines.

5. Prohibited categories

AD does not accept ads for, or that promote:

• Adult or sexual content or products
• Weapons, firearms or ammunition
• Illegal drugs
• Cannabis or CBD products
• Tobacco, vaping or smoke-shop products
• Alcohol
• Gambling or lotteries
• Political or issue advocacy ads
• Payday loans, cryptocurrency, get-rich-quick schemes or MLM
• Counterfeit goods
• Miracle or unproven health claims
• Hate speech or discrimination
• Anything otherwise illegal

6. AD's rights

AD may reject, pause, edit for compliance, or remove any ad at any time, including one that's already live, if it violates these terms, becomes misleading, or for any legal or safety reason. If we remove an ad before its paid period ends for a reason other than your own breach of these terms, we'll credit or refund the unused portion at AD's discretion; otherwise there's no refund for the unused portion.

7. Billing

Advertising is billed the same manual, human-priced way as everything else on AD Appoint — AD agrees a price with you by email and bills it outside the app; no payment is collected inside AD Appoint, and there is no self-serve checkout.

8. Measurement and data

We count views and clicks on your ad in aggregate, first-party only — never a per-visitor record, and never shared or sold. See the Privacy Policy for how this fits into our overall data practices.
