In addition, the reward of deposits into a member’s Paypal account is solely at the discretion of Vadmark. Vadmark reserves the right to request a copy of a proof of identification document, for account verification and security purposes, before granting a request for an account balance withdrawal.

Vadmark Facilities and Services For any link purchase between two members, the member who has purchased a link position on another member’s website is hereafter referred to as ‘the Advertiser.’ The member who has sold the link position on his/her web site to the other member is hereafter referred to as ‘the Publisher.’ Because user authentication on the Internet is difficult, Vadmark cannot and does not confirm each user's purported identity. 7.1 Link Purchases Vadmark is not responsible for the appropriate delivery of purchased link campaigns by the Publisher. Vadmark reserves the right, but has no obligation, to provide refunds to the Advertiser if the Publisher as broken one of the Vadmark Terms and Conditions. Vadmark has no control over the quality, safety or legality of the link campaigns or content posted by Publishers using the Service, nor the truth or accuracy of the listings. We cannot ensure and do not guarantee that a Publisher or Advertiser will act lawfully in using the Service. It is a condition of a purchase of an advertising package from another Vadmark member that the Advertiser does not do any of the following: - You do not change the contents of your web site, or the link itself, that is being advertised to include material that the Publisher would deem to be inappropriate for his/her visitors. If you change the nature of the content on your site significantly without giving the Publisher prior notice, then Vadmark reserves the right to cancel your link early and pay the Publisher the full amount due. As a buyer of an advertising package from another Vadmark member, the Advertiser has the right do all of the following: - Cancel link renewals at any time without prior notice to the Publisher. Vadmark reserves the right to pay the Publisher for an Advertiser’ purchase of a link if the Advertiser has broken one of the Vadmark Terms and Conditions, regardless of whether the Advertiser received the full campaign purchase amount. 7.2 Link Sales Vadmark is not responsible for the content of the Advertiser’s site or link content. Vadmark reserves the right, but has no obligation, to provide immediate payment to the Publisher if the Advertiser as broken one of the Vadmark Terms and Conditions. Publishers must not offer the opportunity to purchase a link campaign or other merchandise outside-of-Vadmark through the Vadmark Service. All Publishers must make every effort to ensure that the information they supply to Advertisers represents the most accurate information available to them. It is a condition of a sale of an advertising package to another Vadmark member that the Publisher does not do any of the following: - Change the location of the Advertiser’s link within the page or within the site without obtaining prior permission from the Advertiser; - Remove the Advertiser’s link prematurely; - Place derogatory remarks regarding the Advertiser’s site or link on any web site the Publisher has listed in his/her Vadmark account; - Artificially manipulate click or impression statistics for a link.

It is not an authorised bank covered by the regulations of the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) or any other international authority. 7.4 Referrals When a Publisher purchases a featured listing, 10% of the listing fee will be awarded to the Vadmark account balance of the member that referred the Publisher. In addition, when a purchased link campaign terminates naturally or is renewed at the end of the campaign term, then the referrers of the Publisher and the Advertiser each receive 10% of the Vadmark transaction fees. A link campaign is defined as terminating naturally when the full purchased amount is delivered to the Advertiser without any dispute between the Publisher and Advertiser. Where a fraudulent referral is discovered or suspected, Vadmark reserves the right to cancel either or both the referrer and the referred account and/or debit the appropriate funds from the referrer’s Vadmark account. 8. Dispute Resolutions In the event of a dispute between a two or more members, Vadmark will determine the dispute resolution. This can involve full or partial refunds to the Advertiser and/or full or partial payments to the Publisher for the link(s) involved. This can also include the termination of member accounts as well as Vadmark account balance and pending account balance penalties to any of the parties involved. As a condition of membership, the member must acknowledge and accept that the decision made by Vadmark is final and indisputable. The member will not attempt to refer the dispute to another authority. 9. Outage Policy The trading success of our members is extremely important to us. Nonetheless, the Vadmark Service may occasionally experience outages in which visitors cannot purchase link campaigns or effectively search for link campaigns via our search features. These outages can also affect the Vadmark link tracking services. Vadmark reserves the right, but is under no obligation, to provide discretionary compensation for members as a result of system outages. Discretionary compensation can take the form of extending listing expiry dates to later times. It is often difficult to assess the impact that outages in Vadmark tracking services will have on member activities. This makes member compensation difficult. Vadmark can, but is under no obligation to, compensate members using individual arrangements in the event of a disruption to our link tracking services. 10. Disclaimer of Warranty The member acknowledges that it has not relied upon or been induced by any representation by Vadmark and Ownership makes no warranty or representation as to: - the results that may be obtained through membership of the service; - the accuracy, reliability or otherwise of any information obtained through membership of the service; - the financial or other rewards which may be obtained through membership of the service; - the service or network being uninterrupted, timely or error free; - the goods and/or services purchased or obtained through the service or network, including goods and or services offered by Vadmark members. 11.
