Advertiser Terms

These terms apply to every ad you book on the Site. Please read them before you apply.

Last updated: Oct 22, 2026Previous versions: Oct 17, 2026; Oct 15, 2026; Oct 11, 2026

Your subscription renews every month until you cancel, and you can cancel anytime (see section 2). Your ad rotates at random with up to 20 ads in the same spot. We do not guarantee impressions, clicks or results. You pay for a placement each month, not for traffic, impressions, clicks, leads or sales, and performance alone is never a reason for a refund (see section 4). These terms also include a liability cap and a binding individual arbitration agreement with a class action waiver (see section 14).

These Advertiser Terms are an agreement between ISCT LLC ("we," "us") and the business that applies to advertise ("you") on DatenUS and its related sites (the "Site"). DatenUS is operated by ISCT LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company. By checking the agreement box on the application, submitting an application, saving a card, paying for an ad or letting an ad run, you accept these terms and confirm that you are authorized to accept them for your business. Our Terms of Use, Privacy Policy and Advertising Disclosure also apply.

1. Review and approval

Every application is reviewed before it runs, usually within 1 to 2 business days. We may approve, ask you to change, or reject any ad, link or targeting choice for any lawful reason, including our ad policy below. Approval is not a statement that your ad complies with the law; that remains your responsibility.

2. Price, monthly billing and automatic renewal

  • Each placement (for example, the top banner or the sidebar rectangle) is sold separately, for one area (one county, one whole state or nationwide), at a flat monthly price shown on the application. There are no per-click charges.
  • Your ad is a monthly subscription that renews automatically. If we approve your ad, we charge the monthly price shown on your application, plus any sales tax, to the card you saved, right away and then on the same day each month, until you cancel. Payment is in advance for each month, in U.S. dollars, through Stripe. We never see or store your full card number.
  • When you apply, you save a card with Stripe and nothing is charged. If we reject your ad, you are never charged and we remove your saved card.
  • How to cancel: email [email protected] or use the Stripe customer portal linked in your Stripe receipt emails. You can cancel anytime. Canceling stops all future charges, and your ad keeps running until the end of the month you already paid for.
  • Price changes: we may change the monthly price of a subscription only after giving you at least 30 days' notice by email. A price change never applies to a month you have already paid for. If you don't want to pay the new price, you can cancel before it takes effect.
  • If a monthly payment fails, we pause your ad until the payment goes through. Stripe may retry your card automatically. If it can't be collected, we may cancel your subscription.
  • Sales tax is added where it applies. You are responsible for any other taxes on your purchase. If you give a business tax ID, it appears on your Stripe invoices.

3. Run dates and seats

  • Your ad goes live the day we approve it and charge your first month, and it runs every day while your subscription is active and paid.
  • On a county page, each placement has up to 20 seats: 10 for ads in that county, 5 for ads for the whole state and 5 for nationwide ads. Each page view shows one of the ads in that placement, picked at random. A whole-state ad also shows on that state's page, and a nationwide ad also shows on pages without a state or county, like the homepage.
  • If we pause or remove a placement because of a problem on our side for a significant part of a paid month, we will extend your subscription by the lost time or refund that part, at your choice.
  • We may move, resize or briefly pause a placement to fix a problem, change the Site's layout, or comply with the law. That is not a breach of these terms.

4. No guarantee of performance

ISCT LLC DOES NOT GUARANTEE, AND YOU AGREE THAT WE HAVE NOT PROMISED, ANY LEVEL OF TRAFFIC, PAGE VIEWS, IMPRESSIONS, REACH, CLICKS, CLICK-THROUGH RATE, CALLS, LEADS, CONVERSIONS, SALES, REVENUE, RETURN ON AD SPEND, SEARCH ENGINE RANKINGS, OR PLACEMENT POSITION ON THE PAGE OR SCREEN.

  • Any traffic figure, audience size, price estimate, example, past result or forecast we show or tell you, on the Site, in the application, in an email or in your report, is an estimate for your information only. It is not a promise, a warranty or a term of your order.
  • Traffic to the Site and to any page, topic or location can go down, or stop, at any time and for any reason, including changes by search engines, browsers or app stores, algorithm updates, seasonality, news events, outages, maintenance, changes in government data sources, removal of pages, bot and fraud filtering, ad blockers, or changes to the Site.
  • Where your ad appears on a page depends on the visitor's screen, device, browser, settings and the page content. Your ad rotates at random with up to 20 ads in the same spot. We do not guarantee impressions, clicks or results. We do not guarantee that your ad is shown above the fold, next to any particular content, or to any particular number of people.
  • Performance is never a reason for a refund, credit or price adjustment. Refunds are given only under section 5. You are responsible for deciding whether advertising on the Site is right for your business.

5. Cancellation and refunds

  • Before approval: you can withdraw your application at any time by emailing us. Nothing is charged before approval, and if we reject your ad, nothing is charged.
  • After approval: you can cancel anytime (see section 2). Canceling stops future charges. The month you already paid for is not refunded, and your ad keeps running until that month ends.
  • Removal for a breach: if we remove your ad because it, its landing page or your business breaks these terms, our ad policy or the law, we may cancel your subscription and we do not refund the current month.
  • Our problem: if the Site or your placement is unavailable for a significant part of a paid month because of a problem on our side, section 3 applies (extension or partial refund, at your choice). This is your only remedy for an outage.
  • We may also choose to refund a charge in other cases, at our discretion. Any refund goes back to the original card, usually within 5 to 10 business days.
  • No other refunds, credits or chargebacks are allowed, including for performance, a change of mind, or changes to your business. If you file a chargeback for an amount that is not refundable under this section, we may stop your ads and recover the amount and our costs.
  • Ads booked under our earlier weekly terms keep the refund rules that applied when you paid.

6. Your ad creative and our license to use it

You keep ownership of your images, text, logos and trademarks (your "creative"). You give us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license, for the length of your run and for a reasonable time after it, to copy, store, resize, crop, compress, convert and display your creative on the Site, in your private report, and in our records. We may add the "Sponsored" label and mark links as sponsored for search engines. We do not use your creative in our own marketing without your permission.

7. Your promises (advertiser warranty)

You promise that:

  • you own or have permission to use everything in your creative and landing page, including trademarks, images and claims;
  • your ad and landing page are truthful, not misleading, and lawful under federal law and the laws of every state where the ad runs, including advertising, consumer protection, privacy, licensing and fair housing laws;
  • you hold every license your business needs to offer what you advertise;
  • your landing page does not contain malware, collect personal information without proper notice, or redirect to a different business; and
  • your ad is not for any of the prohibited categories below.

8. Ads we don't accept

  • Gambling, sports betting, casinos or lottery ticket resellers
  • Cannabis, CBD or THC products, tobacco or vaping products, or alcohol
  • Firearms, ammunition or weapons
  • Prescription drugs, or health claims not supported by evidence
  • Adult content or dating services
  • Payday loans, debt relief, credit repair, cryptocurrency investments or multi-level marketing
  • Background checks, people search, tenant screening, employment screening, mugshot or arrest record sites, or any other consumer report as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act
  • Political or issue ads
  • Housing ads that state or suggest a preference, limitation or discrimination based on a protected class
  • Anything false or misleading, or that uses someone else's trademark without permission

DatenUS is not a consumer reporting agency, and our data may not be used for any purpose covered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. For that reason we never accept ads for background checks, people search, tenant screening or similar services, even when they are lawful.

9. Housing ads and fair housing

Ads for the sale, rental or financing of housing must comply with the federal Fair Housing Act and state and local fair housing laws. A housing ad may not state or suggest any preference, limitation or discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex (including sexual orientation and gender identity), disability, familial status or national origin, or any other class protected where the ad runs. Where required, include the Equal Housing Opportunity statement or logo. Location targeting on the Site is by geography and topic only, and we do not target housing ads by any protected class. We may reject or remove any housing ad that we believe does not meet these rules.

10. Indemnity

You will defend, indemnify and hold harmless ISCT LLC and its members, managers, officers, employees, contractors and agents from and against any claim, demand, suit, investigation, loss, liability, damage, fine, penalty, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to your ad, your creative, your landing page, your products or services, your targeting choices, any claim that your ad infringes or violates someone's rights or is false, misleading or discriminatory, or your breach of these terms or the law. We may take over the defense of any claim at your expense, and you will not settle a claim that affects us without our written consent.

11. Reports

Performance numbers (impressions and clicks, by week and device) are available on request. We are not obligated to send reports. Your private status page may also show daily numbers. We filter out known bots and repeat views, so the numbers are estimates and may differ from your own analytics. Reports are provided for your information only and are not a basis for billing adjustments or refunds, except as stated in section 3.

The information you submit with your application (your name or business name, email, phone, ad creative and billing details) is stored on servers in the Republic of Korea and is processed by Stripe (United States) for payments and by Cloudflare for network delivery, security and file storage. See our Privacy Policy.

12. Disclaimer and limits on our liability

AD PLACEMENTS, REPORTS AND THE SITE ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, AND WE DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AS FURTHER DESCRIBED IN OUR TERMS OF USE.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ISCT LLC WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, SALES, LEADS, BUSINESS OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR ADS OR THESE TERMS. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR ADS OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL FEES YOU ACTUALLY PAID US FOR ADVERTISING DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT THAT GAVE RISE TO THE CLAIM.

13. Our Terms of Use also apply

Our Terms of Use apply to your use of the Site, including its sections on warranties, limitation of liability, release, indemnification, the one-year time limit to bring a claim, and general terms. If the Terms of Use and these Advertiser Terms conflict on an advertising matter, these Advertiser Terms control.

14. Disputes, binding arbitration and class action waiver

ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ISCT LLC ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR ADS OR THESE TERMS WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, AND YOU AND WE EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO TAKE PART IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. The dispute resolution section of our Terms of Use applies to advertisers in full and is part of these terms, including informal resolution first, administration by the American Arbitration Association (under its Commercial Arbitration Rules for business claims), the small claims court exception, the mass arbitration batching procedure, and your right to opt out by emailing [email protected] within 30 days after you first accept these terms. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, and any matter that is not arbitrated will be decided only in the state or federal courts located in Wyoming.

15. Changes and contact

We may update these terms. Changes apply to ads booked after the date at the top of this page. For an active subscription, we will email you at least 30 days before a change that affects your price or billing, and a change never applies to a month you have already paid for, except that changes required by law apply right away.
