Clear Channel is responsible for ensuring that the advertising is kept neat and tidy by using the reserve supply provided to replace or repair damaged posters or signs at the earliest opportunity. With long-term hire of advertising panels, the Client will be informed if a need for maintenance or replacement arises. Clear Channel is not liable for any delay in the replacement of damaged posters or panels due to circumstances outside Clear Channel’s control. If Clear Channel fails to fulfil its obligations under this section, the Client has the right to reasonable compensation for the resulting error. In compensation, the Client will receive advertising space from Clear Channel to a value of no more than the Client’s media value during the advertising period for the incorrect objects. The only compensation available from Clear Channel is advertising space to an equivalent monetary amount.

5. The Client’s responsibility for the content of the advertising

The Client’s advertising message must not contravene Norwegian law, the International Chamber of Commerce’s Consolidated Code of Advertising and Marketing Communication Practice or other applicable rules and regulations. Applicable rules may include local regulations. Clear Channel has the right to examine advertising material in advance. If the advertising material is considered illegal or unethical, Clear Channel has the right to refuse to post it. Creatives and posting instructions are to be e-mailed to campaignmanagement@clearchannel.no before the campaign goes to printing, but no later than 14 days before the advertising period commences. If you know that the content of the text or image can be perceived as provocative, please contact us for discussion 3 weeks before the campaign starts.

The Client shall compensate Clear Channel for all charges, damages or other costs which Clear Channel may sustain as a result of any infringement of applicable laws or regulations or infringement of third-party rights by the Client’s advertising message. The Client’s obligation under this provision applies even if the advertising material has been examined in advance by Clear Channel without any objection being raised. If the booked advertising space cannot be utilised by the Client as a result of the Client not being aware of or complying with applicable laws and rules on the content of the advertising, Clear Channel still has a right to full payment for the advertising space. If creatives and posting instructions are not sent for approval in accordance with the text above, Clear Channel can not guarantee that the campaign will be posted.

6. Limitation of liability

Clear Channel’s liability for errors in connection with posting etc. is regulated separately in this agreement. In addition, Clear Channel’s compensation liability is limited to compensation for direct losses equivalent to no more than the agreed compensation for the media cost or service in question. Indirect losses, such as loss of profit, consequential losses or similar, are not eligible for compensation unless the loss has arisen as a result of gross negligence or wilful actions on Clear Channel’s part. Clear Channel is relieved of liability for damages and other sanctions if the fulfilment of its undertakings under this agreement is prevented or made more difficult by an obstacle outside Clear Channel’s control, such as strike, lockout, extreme weather conditions, shortage of power or raw materials, actions by the authorities or other similar circumstances. If the Client wishes to bring a claim for an error under this agreement, the Client shall inform Clear Channel of this without delay.
