Advertising Agreement & Child Safety Policy
1. Contractual Relationship
By placing an advertisement with thebountifulnews.com or the Code-Oryx ad network (operated by OSIBytes Group LLC), you ("Advertiser") agree to be bound by these terms. This agreement is a binding contract between the Advertiser and Publisher.
2. Utah-Based Community Standards
The Bountiful News and Code-Oryx (OSIBytes Group) are Utah-based community platforms. We do not accept advertising for: illicit or recreational drugs; gambling or betting; sexually explicit, pornographic, or adult content; violence, weapons for harm, or content that exploits or endangers children; hate speech; scams or illegal services. All customer advertisements require admin review for child-safety and community standards before going live.
3. Prohibited Content (Zero Tolerance)
- Illicit, recreational, or controlled substances marketed illegally
- Gambling, casinos, sports betting, or lottery promotions
- Sexually explicit, pornographic, escort, or adult content
- Violence, graphic harm, or content that exploits or endangers children
- Hate speech, scams, fraud, or illegal services of any kind
Violations may result in immediate removal without refund, account suspension, and referral to authorities where required by law.
4. Admin Approval Required
All customer advertisements on The Bountiful News and Code-Oryx must be reviewed and approved by an administrator before they go live, regardless of payment status. Payment does not guarantee approval. Staff/internal brand promos may be activated by staff under separate rules.
5. Payment & Billing
Ads and billing: Code-Oryx serves the advertisements on The Bountiful News and bills the advertiser. Prepaid traffic blocks ($28–$398) are published on code-oryx.com/pricing.php. This paper does not sell a separate direct-ad subscription through accounts.osibytes.com.
Sign-in: Reader and staff sign-in stays on system.osibytes.com. Accounts, Sales, and Admin are identity desks, not the ad checkout.
6. Metrics
Advertisers may view impressions (views) and clicks for their own ads in their dashboard after login. Metrics are estimates and may exclude fraud-filtered events. No guarantee of traffic volume or sales is made.
7. Limitation of Liability
OSIBytes Group LLC is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from advertising use. Maximum liability is limited to fees paid for the specific ad placement period in question.
8. Cancellation
Subscriptions may be cancelled per plan rules. No partial refunds for early cancellation after an ad has run, except at Publisher discretion when content is removed for policy reasons on our initiative.
