rights, responsibilities, and obligations of Advertisers in relation to their advertising activities
within games integrated with our Software Development Kit (SDK). By engaging with our
services, Advertisers agree to adhere to the terms set forth in this section, ensuring a clear
and mutually beneficial partnership.

lawfully displayed in the geographical location of End Users when Advertisements are
available to them. You acknowledge and accept that by the nature of an inside Game
Advertisement, the viewability of an Ad is based on external factors which are not under
Haxelo’s control (e.g., the location of End Users’ in game camera, the angle at which an
Advertisement is viewed while a Game is played, internet and telecommunication
connections, etc.), thus Haxelo does not warrant that any display of an Advertisement in the
Game will be satisfactory to you.
Advertiser Account
To access and utilize our services, Advertisers must register on our platform and create an
Advertiser Account. The Advertiser Account enables Advertisers to choose advertising
campaigns, target audiences and locations , desired budget and to follow the metrics and the
impression made on their advertisements.

their company name (if applicable), email address, and password. Users might also be
required to provide documents proving their identity of the existence of their companies, e.g.
ID cards, Actual state certificate or other government-issued documents.
Advertisers are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account credentials and
for all activities that occur under their account. Any unauthorized use of an account must be
reported to Haxelo immediately.
Creating an account is needed for the creation of Advertising orders from the Advertisers.
Advertising orders
Upon successful registration, Advertisers may select between two types of advertising
campaigns: General Campaigns and Special Campaigns.
- General Campaigns: Advertisers can choose from pre-sorted groups that contain
multiple games. These groups have been carefully prepared and organized by Haxelo
to facilitate targeted advertising. - Special Campaigns: Advertisers have the option to select a specific game for their
advertising efforts, allowing for more tailored and focused campaigns.
Haxelo provides metrics, including average impressions and the number of active end users,
for each game and game group. However, these metrics are for informational purposes only
and should not be construed as guarantees. Haxelo does not warrant that any particular
game or group of games will maintain the same statistical performance as indicated by the
metrics provided. Advertisers acknowledge and accept that actual performance may vary.
Advertisers have the freedom to determine their allocated budget, desired timeline, and
specific advertising campaign. Upon adding funds to their account’s balance, the Advertisers
are able to submit an Advertising Order. Advertisers must have a positive balance in order to
submit advertising orders and subsequently run advertising campaigns. This Advertising
Order constitutes a binding offer to enter into an Agreement with Haxelo regarding the
specified advertising campaign. All submissions of Advertising Orders shall be governed by
these General Terms and Conditions. An Advertising order shall become effective only upon
its acceptance by Haxelo, which acceptance may be by commencing the performance of the
Advertising Services specified in the Advertising order. Each and every Advertising order
shall constitute a separate and independent contract by and between the Parties.
The advertiser acknowledges and agrees that Haxelo may adjust the size and other
elements of any creative provided by Advertiser for display in Games. You authorize Haxelo
to make such adjustments to Advertisements as Haxelo deems necessary or appropriate in
its sole discretion. Such adjustments shall not be considered a breach of any copyright,
intellectual property rights or other ownership rights.
Account access and use of the Platform
Upon acceptance of an Advertising Order by Haxelo, and in consideration of the Advertiser’s
payment to Haxelo of the fees set forth in the applicable Advertising Order, Haxelo will use
commercially reasonable efforts to render the Haxelo Services, subject to these Terms. The
Advertiser shall protect Haxelo’s Platform from third-party access and keep safe and
confidential any and all usernames or passwords associated therewith against any
unauthorized access and use. The Advertiser will take full responsibility for any authorized or
unauthorized access and/or use of the Haxelo Platform and/or Haxelo Services attributable
to such usernames and passwords.
Haxelo grants the Advertiser a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable (except as expressly
provided in these Terms) revocable right to access and use the Haxelo Platform for the sole
purpose of utilizing the Haxelo Services in accordance with the specifications of the
Advertising Order and in accordance with these Terms. Accordingly, except as expressly
permitted by these Terms, the Advertiser may not, (i) directly or indirectly or by itself or
through any other person or entity, use, rent, lease, sell, transfer (by sublicense, assignment,
or otherwise), time share, modify, reproduce, copy, make derivative works from, distribute,
publish, use to provide service bureau services, or publicly display the Haxelo Platform (ii)
reverse engineer, decompile, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code for the Haxelo
Platform; (iii) represent that it possesses any proprietary interest in the Haxelo Platform
and/or Haxelo Services; (iv) except as specifically permitted hereunder, use the name,
trademarks, trade names, logos, or other intellectual property of Haxelo; and (v) use or
access Haxelo Services or the Haxelo Platform for benchmarking purposes. All rights not
specifically granted hereunder are reserved to Haxelo.
The Advertiser agrees not to have any direct contact with any of our registered Publishers
and understand that in the event we suspect that you are communicating with a Publisher we
shall have the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate without notice any or all of your
Advertisements and/or Campaigns.
Advertisements
- For the purpose of providing you with the Services, you hereby grant Haxelo a
non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to access, display, and otherwise use the
Advertisements in accordance with these Terms. - Subject to these Terms, Haxelo will make commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the
Advertisements on your behalf for display in the Game. You agree to provide the necessary
information for Haxelo to deliver Advertisements and/or Campaigns. If any information
changes, you agree to notify us immediately in writing. Haxelo does not control, endorse, or
adopt any Advertisements and will not be responsible or liable for any Advertisement,
including any failures or errors in the display of Advertisements, Campaigns, or for the Game.
Haxelo also bears no responsibility to update or review any of the foregoing. - You will be solely liable for the Advertisements and acknowledge that you will remain
responsible and liable to Haxelo for anything submitted to us for use with the Services. You
agree to indemnify, defend, and hold Haxelo harmless in the event of any claims raised by
the Publisher, End Users, or any third parties in relation to the Advertisements, including but
not limited to their accuracy and any infringement of third-party intellectual property or other
rights. This includes any claims that cause Haxelo to violate any third-party terms or that are
unlawful or violate any applicable regulations, policies, or laws regarding the Advertisement’s
intended audience. You shall bear all responsibility and liability to ensure that the Games in
which such Advertisements are displayed are appropriate for the target audience. You
irrevocably waive and discharge Haxelo from any liability related to the above, and you will
indemnify Haxelo for any damages, losses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees)
arising from claims based on breaches of your warranties and obligations. - Haxelo reserves the right, but is not obligated, to pre-screen, review, and monitor any or all
Advertisements and may remove or block any or all Advertisements if Haxelo determines, in
its sole discretion, that such action is appropriate. Notwithstanding any review or monitoring
that Haxelo may perform, such action does not imply any endorsement or approval of any
Advertisement by Haxelo, nor does it suggest that Haxelo agrees or acknowledges that any
particular Advertisement complies with the Advertiser’s obligations under these Terms. The
Advertiser shall be solely responsible for the content of the Advertisements submitted to
Haxelo. The Advertiser represents and warrants that all Advertisements are lawful, accurate,
and not misleading. The Advertiser acknowledges that it has full responsibility for ensuring
that the Advertisements comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and industry standards.
Haxelo shall not be liable for any claims, damages, or liabilities arising from the content of the
Advertisements, including but not limited to any inaccuracies, falsehoods, or unlawful
content. The Advertiser agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold Haxelo harmless from any
claims or legal actions arising from the Advertiser’s content, including any alleged violations
of law or rights of third parties. - Haxelo does not control and makes no representations regarding (i) any actions,
omissions, or decisions made by any Publisher regarding the Advertisements to be displayed
in any Game; (ii) the quality of the Game display; and (iii) any other advertisements displayed
alongside or instead of the Advertisements. - As part of the Services Haxelo will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide you with
Reports that review a Campaign’s effectiveness based on parameters used by Haxelo. Such
parameters may include tracking and analysis of the performance of your Advertisements
and/or Campaigns and advertising activities based on campaign data collected with our
tracking technology and analytics solutions. These Reports will be provided by Haxelo
representatives managing the Services for you or via any other tool or solution made
available to you by Haxelo. - All interactions and commitments you have with any party regarding the Advertisements
must be professional, proper, and lawful under applicable legislation, rules, regulations, or
laws (including any laws concerning the content and nature of advertising or marketing) and
must comply with the terms of these Terms. - You agree that any Advertisements provided to us by you shall not contain any content
that: (i) is libelous, discriminatory, obscene, unlawful, illegal, sexually explicit, pornographic,
violent, or otherwise unsuitable at Haxelo’s sole discretion; (ii) advertises or targets the
marketing of the Advertisements to any individuals under the age of legal consent in the
relevant jurisdiction, if the laws in the jurisdiction of the specific End User does not allow
targeting individuals under the age of legal consent; (iii) infringes upon Haxelo’s or any third
party’s intellectual property rights, including but not limited to illegal streaming or
downloading; copies or resembles Haxelo’s or any third party’s property, in whole or in part;
or disparages Haxelo or any third party or otherwise damages their goodwill or reputation;
(iv) uses or includes any spiders, robots, viruses, Trojan horses, or any other type of
malware, spyware, or malicious code; (v) fails to comply with any Publisher, metaverse
platform, or other third-party terms, policies, or guidelines applicable to the development,

Payment
The Advertisers must maintain positive balance in their accounts in order to keep their
campaigns active. Once the balance has been exhausted, advertising campaigns will be
suspended, and the display of advertisements will cease. The Advertiser retains the right to
reload the balance at their discretion. Haxelo will notify the Advertiser, if possible, when the
balance is nearing depletion.
All payments made to the platform are processed by a third-party payment service provider.
As part of their operations, this provider may collect certain categories of personal data from
users that are necessary for the processing of payments. Haxelo is not responsible for the
collection, use, or handling of such personal data by the payment service provider, and all
transactions are subject to the privacy policy and terms of service of that provider.

the Disclosing Party, (ii) use the Confidential Information solely for the purposes of

from the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party shall promptly return or destroy all
materials embodying Confidential Information and certify in writing its compliance with
this obligation.
Force Majeure
Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of their obligations
under this Agreement if such failure or delay is due to circumstances beyond their
reasonable control (“Force Majeure Event”). Force Majeure Events include, but are not
limited to, acts of God, natural disasters, fires, floods, wars, terrorism, riots, embargoes,
strikes, lockouts, labor disputes, governmental actions, epidemics, pandemics, or any other
events of a similar nature that could not have been avoided by reasonable diligence.

days of the occurrence of the Force Majeure Event, providing details of the nature and
expected duration of the event. The obligations of the affected party shall be suspended for
the duration of the Force Majeure Event, and the affected party shall use reasonable efforts
to mitigate the impact of the Force Majeure Event and resume performance as soon as
practicable.
If the Force Majeure Event continues for a period of 30 days, either party may terminate this
Agreement by providing written notice to the other party. In such case, neither party shall be
liable to the other for any damages arising from such termination.
Dispute Resolution
All disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved amicably
through negotiations between the parties. The parties agree to make reasonable efforts to
resolve any disagreements or disputes in good faith and with a view toward achieving a
mutually acceptable resolution.
If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute through negotiation, either party may initiate
formal proceedings. In such cases, the parties agree that the competent court for the
resolution of any disputes shall be the courts located in Georgia. The applicable material law
governing this Agreement shall be the law of Georgia.
Termination
Haxelo reserves the right to terminate this agreement at any time and at its sole discretion,
without prior notice to the Advertiser. If there is a positive cash balance in the Advertiser’s
account at the time of termination, Haxelo shall pay it back if there are no counterclaims
against the Advertiser, in which case it shall be entitled to set off its claims against such
balance.
The Advertiser might decide not to recharge the Advertiser’s account. If that happens, the
advertising campaigns will be ceased and the advertisement will no longer be shown. The
Advertiser has no right to claim the amounts that have already been spent on advertising.
Any obligations incurred prior to termination shall remain in effect.
