Advertiser Terms

These Advertiser Terms govern your use of ClipAd, operated by Polsia, as a brand running campaigns with African video creators. They supplement our Terms of Service and set out how campaigns, billing, and measurement work.

This is a template for an early-stage product and not legal advice.

1. Campaign rules

ClipAd operates in Ghana, Nigeria and Kenya, and each campaign runs in its market's local currency (GH₵ in your market). You may create campaigns that define a budget and the creators or categories you wish to reach, subject to a minimum campaign budget of GH₵1,000. Campaigns move through clear states — from draft to active, and may be paused or completed. You are responsible for the accuracy of your campaign settings and for ensuring your advertising complies with all applicable laws and these terms. ClipAd may review campaigns and decline or pause any that breach our policies.

2. Budgets, flat-fee billing, and escrow

Campaigns are billed on a flat fee per placement — a single price for each creator who features your brand in their content for one campaign. The price per creator is set by that creator's recent 30-day view tier, so you know your cost upfront; there is no per-impression or CPM billing. You pre-fund campaigns, and those funds are held in escrow until the corresponding placements are served in creator content and verified. We draw down from escrow as each placement is delivered. Unspent budget from a completed or cancelled campaign is handled as described in the refunds section. Payment details are processed by our payment provider and not stored by us.

3. Campaign content requirements

You must supply the brand content and messaging you run with creators in a form that meets our quality standards, as specified in the brand portal. Your brand content must be honest, clearly identifiable as advertising, and must not be deceptive. You represent that you hold all rights to the assets you provide, including footage, music, trademarks, and any likenesses.

4. Brand-suitability and creator approval

ClipAd is a two-sided marketplace. You can specify the content categories and contexts you are willing to appear in, and we classify creator content for suitability. Independently, creators approve which of their segments may carry advertising and may decline specific brand campaigns or placements. This means placements depend on both your suitability settings and creator approval, protecting brand and creator alike.

5. Verification and placements

You are buying an authentic placement with a creator whose recent content earns views in the relevant tier — not a guaranteed impression count, reach, or performance outcome. A creator's view tier is set from views shown on their public profile over the last 30 days, which we verify using reasonable methods. We surface your placements on your dashboard. Advanced impression analytics, A/B testing, and make-goods are not part of the service today and are on our roadmap.

6. Refunds and disputes

Because budget is held in escrow and drawn only against delivered placements, unspent funds from a cancelled or completed campaign are returned or credited to you. If you believe you were charged for a placement that was not delivered, or that a campaign did not run as agreed, you may raise a dispute through your dashboard or our contact page. We will investigate in good faith and issue credits or refunds where warranted under these terms.

7. Intellectual property

You retain ownership of your brand content. You grant ClipAd a limited license to host, process, display, and distribute that content in connection with creator placements for your campaigns. ClipAd and its platform remain the property of Polsia, and you receive only a limited right to use the service for advertising.

8. Prohibited ads

Advertising must comply with our Content & Community Policy and the law. Prohibited advertising includes, without limitation:

• Deceptive, fraudulent, or misleading claims, including false health or financial promises.
• Content that infringes third-party intellectual property or publicity rights.
• Hateful, discriminatory, or harassing material.
• Ads for illegal products or services, or anything restricted under Ghanaian law.

9. Termination and contact

You may pause or stop your campaigns and close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these terms, our Terms of Service, or our policies, or if your activity creates risk for creators or the platform. On termination, escrowed funds are reconciled against delivered placements and any remainder returned. For questions, reach us through our contact page.
