Advertising terms

1. Scope

These advertising terms apply in addition to our general terms of use and cover the Community Dispatch Listing, Partner Explainer Dispatch and Quarterly Audio Series Sponsorship sold by NU Media Edge Inc. under the Ferngrove Wire name.

2. Booking

A placement is booked once we confirm the format, price and schedule in writing and you accept. Availability for the Quarterly Audio Series Sponsorship allows only one sponsor per series, so we recommend booking at least a month before the quarter you want.

3. Creative deadlines

You agree to provide requested materials (logo, copy, briefing notes, sponsor-credit wording) by the deadline stated in your confirmation. Late materials may push back the publication or air date without extending the run length you booked.

4. Approval

Directory listings are published as submitted, since they use your own supplied text and logo. Explainer articles and sponsor-credit scripts include one review round: we send a draft, you request changes once, and we finalize before publication or recording. Additional revision rounds may be quoted separately.

5. Make-goods

If a technical error on our part causes your placement to run incorrectly (a listing published with the wrong logo, an episode released without your sponsor credit), we will correct the error and, where the run cannot reasonably be corrected, offer an equivalent make-good placement or a partial refund for the affected portion.

6. Editorial independence

Advertising and editorial decisions are made separately at Ferngrove Wire. Sponsoring a placement does not give an advertiser input into our news coverage, and our reporting is never written, edited, delayed or withdrawn to suit an advertiser. Partner-labelled content (the Partner Explainer Dispatch and any sponsor-read segment) is always clearly identified as sponsored, distinct from our independent reporting.

7. Payment & refunds

Payment and refund terms for advertising bookings are set out in our terms of use and in full on our cancellation and refunds page.

8. Changes to these terms

We may update these advertising terms from time to time; the date above shows the most recent revision.
