Description of Service. Company provides users with the
ability to set up online advertising campaigns, pay for

similar applicable taxes. Business shall promptly pay all
such taxes and any associated interest and penalties.

be used to specifically identify you) to third parties
without your consent except where the Company, in good
faith, believes such disclosure is necessary to comply
with the law or to enforce this Agreement. Company
