Customer acknowledges that the Service is built to function in conjunction with the ad buying systems and other digital advertising platforms ("Advertising Platform") and media inventory supported by Viomba and specified in Schedule 1. Customer shall be required to comply with the access, usage and data processing requirements, and terms and conditions as set forth in such Advertising Platforms. With the Service, Customer can upload its marketing campaign Ad creatives as files to the Service. Customer agrees that Viomba has no responsibility to review the contents of Ads to ensure compliance with Advertising Platform’s guidelines or policies, or any applicable law, regulation, or other judicial or administrative order. Once Viomba has analysed the Ads, Customer is given the results of the analysis on the web site for each Ad creative.

For invoicing, attention impact reporting and auditing purposes, Viomba will install tracking pixels to Ads. The tracking pixel will be sent to consumers together with the Ads so that when the Ad is shown to the consumer, Viomba can record the impression. Use of the Service and provided analytics for a campaign optimization without Viomba’s tracking pixels is not permitted. In case Customer has an account in the Pathfinder supported Advertising Platform, the Ads are automatically uploaded to the Advertising Platform. Otherwise, Customer can download the modified Ads as files from the Service and upload them manually to other Advertising Platforms.

Viomba is responsible only for the specified Service, Viomba is NOT responsible for the services and performance of the Advertising Platforms in any respect. For example, Viomba does not guarantee that Customer’s campaign or Ads will reach Customer’s intended audience or reach Customer’s performance goals, including with respect to any desired number of impressions. Viomba does not guarantee that Ad Inventory meeting Customer’s preferred criteria will be available, or that it will be available in the volume desired by Customer, or that Customer will be the successful bidder for such Ad inventory, even where Viomba may have provided Customer with predictions relating to availability and volume.

Customer shall provide Viomba with access to Customer’s Advertising Platform account as necessary to manage, provide, analyze, report, audit, and invoice the Service. Customer warrants that it has obtained all necessary rights, licenses, consents, waivers, and permissions to allow Viomba such access and to use tracking pixels, and collect and use any data provided or collected by the Advertising Platform at no cost to Viomba for the performance of this Agreement.

Schedule 2 – Pricing and Invoicing

Billing period is one calendar month. The first month when the account is activated is prolonged until the end of the next calendar month. For example: Account is activated on February 17 - the first billing period is February 17 - March 31.

Invoice item types that are created by Pathfinder include:

  • Monthly system fee per registered account (operating unlimited campaigns and clients)
  • Per ad Creative measurement fee (accumulated across all accounts per month)
  • Per ad Creative bidding algorithm creation fee (accumulated across all accounts per month)
  • Per Campaign algorithm activation fee (invoiced 1:1 to realized impressions CPM)

Monthly fee

Monthly fee is a fixed fee which is charged for each Monthly Billing period per each company account (no matter how many clients are been operated under this account).

The Monthly fee is

  • 1 000 € / Billing Period

Per Ad Creative measurement fee

The basis of the ad creative fee is the number of creatives measured during a billing period.

The Per Ad Creative measurement fee is for all account combined monthly measured ad creatives:

  • 100 first creatives, 35 € / ad creative, and
  • creatives 101 - 200, 30 € / ad creative, and
  • starting at creative 201, 25 € / ad creative.

For example: There are 345 measured ad creatives across various campaigns within a monthly period. The per ad creative fee is:

100 x 35 €  =  3 500 € + ( creatives   1 .. 100 )
100 x 30 € = 3 000 € + ( creatives 101 .. 200 )
145 x 25 € = 3 625 € + ( creatives 201 .. 345 )

= 10 125 €

Campaign fee

The campaign fee consists of the number of bidding algorithms created for the ad creatives and the total number of impressions purchased for creatives measured by Pathfinder. Additionally, the Customer is granted a volume discount, if the campaign fee for a period reaches certain levels. The volume discount is applicable to that report period only, and will be applied only to the campaign fee.

The campaign fees consists of:

  • RTB algorithm creation fee: 30 € / ad creative
  • CPM for ad creatives
    • with algorithm: 0,25 €, or
    • tracking pixel only: 0,10
  • Volume discounts:
    • 20 000 € -10%, or
    • 40 000 € -20%

For example: There are 46 individual ad creatives, for which 65 million impressions with Attention Pathway algorithm have been bought, and 90 million impressions with tracking pixel only in a single billing period.

The total campaign fee for the billing period is calculated as:

30,00 € x 46 creatives  =   1 380 € +
0,25 € x 65 000 m.imp = 16 250 € +
0,10 € x 90 000 m.imp = 9 000 € +
= 26 630 € x 90% ( > 20 000 €, but < 40 000 € )

= 23 967 €

NOTES TO CUSTOMER:

  • CPM is interpreted as one thousand (1000) ad impressions of any ad creative which is uploaded for Attention Pathway Algorithm creation, whether the specific campaign related ad buy is connected with the Viomba Pathfinder or not and/or whether the Attention Pathway algorithm(s) or Pathfinder reporting pixels are actively used of not.
  • Customer is obligated to transparently report any and all monthly impressions to Viomba which are Pathfinder measured, Attention Pathway algorithm optimized or reported by using Pathfinder provided data with or without any specific ad buy platform connected Attention Pathway Algorithms.
