The SkyCred Terms and these terms (the "SkyCred Commercial Terms" or "Commercial Terms") apply to access or use of the SkyCred Products (or Products), including business accounts, for any business or commercial purpose (except where we state that separate terms (and not these) apply to such access or use of a SkyCred Product). This includes, but is not limited to, buying ads, selling products, managing a group or account for a business, or using our measurement services.

You agree that you will ensure that any third party on whose behalf you access or use any SkyCred Product for any business or commercial purpose (except, again, where we state that separate terms (and not these) apply to such access or use) is bound by the Terms, these Commercial Terms and any applicable supplemental terms, and you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that third party to such terms.

These Commercial Terms require the resolution of most disputes between you and us by binding arbitration on an individual basis; class actions and jury trials are not permitted.

1. Licenses

As described in “The permissions you give us” section in our Terms, you grant us a license to content that is covered by intellectual property rights (like photos or videos) you share, post, or upload on or in connection with our Products. For any access or use of the SkyCred Products for business or commercial purposes, that license applies to content you or someone on your behalf (such as your agency that places an ad for you or your service provider that manages your Page content for you) makes available on or in connection with any SkyCred Product.

You also will ensure that you own or have secured all rights necessary to grant the licenses and rights you (or someone on your behalf) grant to us under the Commercial Terms and any applicable supplemental terms, including permission to display, distribute and deliver your content within SkyCred Products.

2. Compliance with law

You represent and warrant that your access or use of SkyCred Products for business or commercial purposes complies with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations. You further represent that you will restrict access to your content and apps in accordance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including geo-filtering or age-gating access where required.

In addition to and without limiting the requirements about who can use the SkyCred Products under our Terms, if you are located in a country that is subject to embargo under the laws of the United States (or under similar laws applicable to you) you may not engage in commercial activities on SkyCred Products unless authorized by applicable laws. If you are on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals (or an equivalent lists), you may not engage in commercial or business activities on the SkyCred Products (such as advertising or payments). You also may not access or use the SkyCred Products if you are prohibited from receiving products, services, or software under applicable law.

3. Limits on liability

In addition to and without limiting the scope of the “Limits on liability” section in our Terms, you agree that we are not responsible for the actions, services, content, or data of third parties and you release us, our directors, officers, employees, and agents from any claims and damages, known or unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with any claim you have against any such third parties.

Our aggregate liability arising out of or relating to any access or use of the SkyCred Products for business or commercial purposes, the Terms (for any access or use of the SkyCred Products for business or commercial purposes), or these Commercial Terms shall not exceed the greater of one hundred dollars ($100) or the amount you have paid us in the past twelve months.

4. Disputes

  1. Indemnification
  2. If anyone brings a claim, cause of action, or dispute against us related to your services, actions, content or information on SkyCred or other SkyCred Products or your use of any SkyCred Products, you agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from and against all damages, losses, and expenses of any kind (including reasonable legal fees and costs) related to any such claim, cause of action, or dispute.

  3. Dispute resolution
  4. If you reside outside the US or your business is located outside the US: You agree that any claim, cause of action, or dispute you have against us that arises out of or relates to any access or use of the SkyCred Products for business or commercial purposes must be resolved exclusively in the United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin or a state court located in Waukesha County, that you submit to the personal jurisdiction of either of these courts for the purpose of litigating any such claim, and that the laws of the State of Wisconsin will govern these Commercial Terms and any such claim, without regard to conflict of law provisions.

    If you reside in the US or your business is located in the US: You and we agree to arbitrate any claim, cause of action, or dispute between you and us that arises out of or relates to any access or use of the SkyCred Products for business or commercial purposes (“commercial claim”). This provision does not cover any commercial claims relating to violations of your or our intellectual property rights, including, but not limited to, copyright infringement, patent infringement, trademark infringement, violations of your or our confidential information or trade secrets, or efforts to interfere with our Products or engage with our Products in unauthorized ways (for example, automated ways).

    We and you agree that, by entering into this arbitration provision all parties are waiving their respective rights to a trial by jury or to participate in a class or representative action. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING COMMERCIAL CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING. You may bring a commercial claim only on your own behalf and cannot seek relief that would affect other parties. If there is a final judicial determination that any particular commercial claim (or a request for particular relief) cannot be arbitrated in accordance with this paragraph’s limiations, then only that commercial claim (or only that request for relief) may be brought in court. All other commercial claims (or requests for relief) remain subject to this paragraph.

    The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision. All issues are for an arbitrator to decide, except that only a court may decide issues relating to the scope or enforceability of this arbitration provision or the interpretation of the prohibition of class and representative actions.

    If any party intends to seek arbitration of a dispute, that party must provide the other party with notice in writing. This notice of dispute to us must be sent to the following address:

    SkyCred, LLC.
    12825 Elmwood Rd.
    Elm Grove, WI 53122

    The arbitration will be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”), as modified by these Commercial Terms, and will be administered by the AAA. If the AAA is unavailable, the parties will agree to another arbitration provider or the court will appoint a substitute. The arbitrator will not be bound by rulings in other arbitrations in which you are not a party. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any evidentiary submissions made in arbitration will be maintained as confidential in the absence of good cause for its disclosure. The arbitrator’s award will be maintained as confidential only to the extent necessary to protect either party’s trade secrets or proprietary business information or to comply with a legal requirement mandating confidentiality. Each party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with AAA Rules, except that we will pay for your filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees if your commercial claim for damages does not exceed $75,000 and is non-frivolous (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).

    If you do not wish to be bound by this provision (including its waiver of class and representative claims), you must notify us as set forth below within 30 days of the first acceptance date of any version of these Commercial Terms containing an arbitration provision. Your notice to us under this subsection must be submitted to the address here:

    SkyCred, LLC.
    12825 Elmwood Rd.
    Elm Grove, WI 53122

    All commercial claims between us, whether subject to arbitration or not, will be governed by Wisconsin law, excluding Wisconsin's conflict of laws rules, except to the extent that Wisconsin law is contrary to or preempted by federal law.

    If a commercial claim between you and us is not subject to arbitration, you agree that the claim must be resolved exclusively in the United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin or a state court located in Waukesha County, and that you submit to the personal jurisdiction of either of these courts for the purpose of litigating any such claim.

    If any provision of this dispute resolution provision is found unenforceable, that provision will be severed and the balance of the dispute resolution provision will remain in full force and effect.

5. Updates

We may need to update these Commercial Terms from time to time, including to accurately reflect the access or uses of our Products for business or commercial purposes, and so we encourage you check them regularly for any updates. By continuing any access or use of any SkyCred Products for business or commercial purposes after any notice of an update to these Commercial Terms, you agree to be bound by them. Any updates to the Disputes section of these Commercial Terms will apply only to disputes that arise after notice of the update takes place. If you do not agree to the updated terms, please stop all access or use of our Products for business or commercial purposes.

6. Conflicts and supplemental terms

If there is a conflict between the Commercial Terms and the SkyCred Terms, the Commercial Terms shall govern with respect to your access and use of the SkyCred Products for business or commercial purposes to the extent of the conflict.

Supplemental terms and policies may also apply to your use of certain Products. To the extent those supplemental terms conflict with the Commercial Terms, the supplemental terms will govern with respect to your use of those Products to the extent of the conflict. For example:

  • Your advertising placed on SkyCred Company Products or our publisher network must comply with our Advertising Policies.
  • If you administer a business account, group or event, you agree to our Business Accounts, Groups and Events Policy.

As with our Commercial Terms, we may make changes to these supplemental terms. By continuing to access or use any SkyCred Products subject to supplemental terms after notice of any update to the supplemental terms, you agree to be bound by them.

7. Other

  • The SkyCred Terms, these Commercial Terms, and other applicable supplemental terms make up the entire agreement between the parties regarding access or use of the SkyCred Products for any business or commercial purpose, and supersede any prior agreements.
  • If any portion of these Commercial Terms are found to be unenforceable, then (except as otherwise provided) that portion will be severed and the remaining portion will remain in full force and effect.
  • If we fail to enforce any of these Commercial Terms, it will not be considered a waiver.

  • All of our rights and obligations under these Commercial Terms are freely assignable by us in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, or by operation of law or otherwise.
  • Nothing in these Commercial Terms shall prevent us from complying with the law.
  • We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you.
