IT IS AGREED THAT: - SCOPE OF THIS AGREEMENT
1.1. Das Technologies Limited maintains a site on the Internet located at: http://www.das%20property.com/ ("Dasproperty.com"). Save as otherwise set out in this agreement, this Agreement relates to the Advertiser electronically submitting its commercial or residential property ("Advertising Content”) on the Dasproperty.com Site via Dasproperty.com’s on-line advertising posting service ("Posting Service”). Such Advertising Content will be automatically posted and published by Dasproperty.com's systems (i.e. without the assistance of any Das Tech personnel) into the property listing section of the Dasproperty.com Site, as applicable, so that such Advertising Content is advertised to and may be accessed by Dasproperty.com's Users (defined below) should such Users wish to do so. The Posting Service (including storing the Advertising Content submitted electronically by the Advertiser), the processing and posting by Das Tech's systems, and the advertising in the relevant section of the Das Tech site will be the "Advertising Services" for the purpose of this Agreement. As part of the Advertising Services, Das Tech also offers the Advertiser the facility to edit its advertisements already on the Das Tech Site via the Posting Service.
1.2. Das Tech also offers an advertising service whereby Das Tech will process and post the Advertiser's adverts to the Dasproperty.com Site on behalf of the Advertiser. Such advertising service is usually for higher value, multiple volume advertisements. If the Advertiser is interested in this service, it should contact Das Tech using the contact details in this Agreement and Das Tech will let the Advertiser know if it qualifies for this advertising service.
1.3. The Property Advertisement Services set out in this Agreement may be provided by Das Tech or, if applicable, by the relevant Das Tech Affiliate. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Das Tech Affiliates" will mean any partner or holding company of Das Tech, or a subsidiary of Das Tech. "Das Tech Affiliate" will mean one of the Das Tech Affiliates, as applicable.
1.4. Each electronic submission of the Advertising Content by the Advertiser to the Das Tech Site via the Posting Service will remain advertised on the Das Tech Site for up to 4 weeks from the Launch Date (defined below) unless the Advertiser selects a shorter period via the Posting Service. Such 4 week period or such shorter period selected by the Advertiser will be the "Advertising Period”. Each posting of Advertising Content to the Das Tech Site will first appear on the Das Tech Site no later than 3 Working Days (for the purposes of this Clause 1.4, "Working Days" are defined as Monday-Friday between 9am and 6 pm but excluding public holidays in the United Kingdom) after the electronic submission of such Advertising Content by the Advertiser to the Posting Service. The first day of the Advertising Period is the day the Advertising Content is advertised on the Das Tech Site for the first time and this day will be the "Launch Date" for the purposes of this Agreement. Subject to the Advertiser pre-paying the relevant Fees, the Advertiser may extend the Advertising Period by a period of up to 4 weeks by selecting such extension via the Posting Service.
1.5. The Advertiser will be liable for the fees ("Fees”) payable to Das Tech for the Property Advertisement Services in accordance with this Agreement and the Advertiser will pay the Fees to Das Tech in accordance with Clause 4 below.
1.6. At all times, the Advertiser is solely responsible for electronically submitting the Advertising Content to the Dasproperty.com Site and the contents and details of any of the Advertising Content provided to Das Tech under this Agreement. Das Tech will not be liable or responsible for checking the Advertising Content to ensure it is correct, accurate and complete or that it does not contain any errors. Das Tech will not be liable for any errors, mistakes, or omissions made during the electronic submission, processing and/or posting the Advertising Content to the Das Tech Site.
