Spyware

EVO strictly prohibits the delivery of spyware on its site. A partial definition of spyware is a software-based trigger or program that monitors a computer’s usage, sends information about the computer usage to a remote computer or server displays, or causes to be displayed an advertisement in response to the computer's usage without the knowledge or approval of the user. 

Format & Design Guidelines

EVO expects delivery of graphic files in JPG or PNG format. Animated GIF or Flash files are not acceptable. EVO can provide ad design services for a fee. 

Placement Options

Ads may be purchased on a sponsorship basis, meaning by location and or package for a specified period of time. Placements are limited to five (5) advertisers in a rotation and are first come, first served.

Changes of Policy

EVO reserves the right to change, amend or eliminate advertising policies with 30 days advance notice. Submitting an advertisement for publication represents the advertiser's agreement to abide by the policies of EVO. 

Identification and Indemnification

Advertisers who purchase ad spots from EVO on our web site must have either the company's registered URL or name in one of the frames of the ad. Under no circumstances do we accept advertising without identifying the company. The advertiser agrees that it is responsible to third parties for the content of advertisements placed. In the event that EVO becomes liable to any third party as a result of an advertisement, the advertiser agrees to indemnify any or all of them for damages owed to the third party and for the fees and costs associated with the controversy. 

Payment Terms

All advertising must be paid in advance. Payments will be credited to the oldest outstanding balance first. Cash discounts are not available. By purchasing an ad spot, the advertiser agrees that they guarantee payment for the minimum period for the specific ad space.

Publisher's Rights

All advertising is subject to approval from EVO regarding subject matter, form size, wording, illustrations, animation and typography. The publishers reserve the right to edit, reject or cancel any advertisement at any time, before or after placement. EVO does not accept online advertising for any material not suitable for our viewers. Ads received that are not in harmony with the site may be removed or a redesign requested.

Site Aggregators

EVO reserves the right to review all potential advertisers' web sites at any time, before or after placement, to determine whether they are deemed "site aggregators." Generally, a site aggregator is viewed as a site that acts as a portal/destination site containing content and advertising from multiple entities. EVO reserves the right to reject advertising that is deemed competitive or contrary to the best interests of EVO.
