TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE
Scope and Applicable Law
These General Terms of Billing and Payment apply to all advertising services provided by Market Version Press, S.L. ("Market Version Press") in its printed, online, newsletters, and other digital media, unless otherwise expressly agreed in the commercial proposal.
In case of discrepancy, the specific terms included in each proposal or accepted order shall prevail.
The contract is governed by Spanish law, particularly the General Advertising Law, information society services regulations, and commercial operations late payment regulations.
For any controversy arising from the interpretation or execution of the contract, the parties expressly submit to the Courts and Tribunals of Madrid (Spain), waiving any other jurisdiction that may correspond. Clients domiciled outside Spain also accept Spanish law and the jurisdiction of Madrid courts.
Commercial proposals issued by Market Version Press are considered contractual offers and include, at least, a description of the media, formats, estimated publication dates or periods, amount, billing method, and payment term.
The client's acceptance of the proposal, whether by signature, written confirmation (including email), or validation through Market Version Press tools (e.g., Odoo), implies full acceptance of the proposal and these General Terms.
From the moment of acceptance, the proposal acquires contractual value, committing the spaces, editorial planning, and resources necessary for campaign execution.
By default, billing will be as established in each proposal:
Billing upon publication (once the issue or campaign is launched).
Total or partial advance billing (before publication).
Prorated billing (monthly or other agreed installments).
When the proposal has agreed advance billing or in determined installments (e.g., monthly payments), Market Version Press's right to issue the invoice is not conditioned on the effective publication date, but on the proposal acceptance and agreed billing schedule.
The service is deemed contracted from the proposal acceptance, so the provisional non-publication of advertising (for editorial or planning reasons) does not affect the billing right, provided the Responsibilities section is respected.
Each invoice will include identification of the medium, format, and period, as well as applicable taxes (e.g., VAT and IRPF, if applicable).
Unless a different term is specified in the proposal, the standard payment term is 30 days from the invoice date.
In certain commercial agreements, and only if expressly stated in the proposal, 60-day terms or prorated payment schemes may be established.
All payments will be made by bank transfer to the account indicated on the invoice. Any banking commission or expense derived from payment will be borne by the client, unless otherwise agreed.
After 6 months from the due date of an unpaid invoice, and following prior payment demand, Market Version Press may apply 10% annual late payment interest on overdue and unpaid amounts, without prejudice to other legally applicable interests in commercial operations.
Settlement of late payment interest does not prevent Market Version Press from claiming any additional damages caused by non-payment.
Market Version Press reserves the right to suspend the issuance of new campaigns, insertions, or services for clients with overdue unpaid invoices until payment regularization.
The client may cancel or modify a printed media insertion without penalty if notified in writing at least 1 month prior to the edition's closing date.
If notified less than 1 month but more than 10 days in advance, the client shall pay 50% of the affected insertion amount.
If notified less than 10 days in advance, the client shall pay 80% of the affected insertion amount.
Without cancellation notice within the deadlines, the insertion is deemed to proceed, applying the "Creatives and Material Delivery" terms.
Online advertising (web, banners, digital advertorials, etc.) planning is organized by monthly periods or defined windows in the proposal.
The client may cancel or modify an online campaign without cost if notified in writing at least 15 days before the start of the month or period.
If cancellation occurs less than 15 days in advance, Market Version Press will bill 100% of the amount for the affected month or period..
The client is responsible for providing creatives, graphic materials, and texts within the deadline, in the formats and technical specifications indicated by Market Version Press for each medium.
Materials must be delivered at least 5 business days before the deadline (material closing date) communicated by Market Version Press.
For printed publications, if materials are not delivered on time, Market Version Press may use previous client creatives if suitable, or reserve the space empty, billing 100% in both cases.
Use previous creatives from the same client, if available and suitable, or
Reserve the space without content,
and in both cases the insertion will be considered performed for billing purposes, with the client required to pay 100% of the contracted amount.
For online publications, if materials are not delivered, a 5-day grace period from the month/period start is granted. If still not delivered, 100% is billed, without prejudice to rescheduling if possible.
If after that additional 5-day period the client still does not provide the material, Market Version Press may consider the campaign as performed for billing purposes, with the client required to pay 100% of the corresponding amount, without prejudice to rescheduling if possible by mutual agreement.
When the client contracts insertion packages, annual agreements, or plans with discounts for minimum investment or insertion volume, such volume is a firm commitment.
If the client unilaterally does not execute the full committed insertions or services, Market Version Press will recalculate applying the rate for the actual volume executed.
The economic difference will be re-invoiced, including regularization of already billed insertions, so the client pays the amount matching the actual volume without initial discounts.
If advertising is not published due to client-attributable causes (e.g., no material delivery, non-compliance with specs, unpaid invoices, late cancellations), the client remains obligated to pay agreed amounts.
If not published, delayed, or affected due to Market Version Press-attributable causes, it commits to offering:
New insertion on reasonable alternative date, and/or
Insertion in medium/format/position of equal or superior value to the initial one.
If the client rejects the equal/superior value alternative, it has the right to request refund of amounts actually paid for the unrealized campaign, or offset in future insertions at client's choice.
Market Version Press's maximum liability for any damages from non-publication or defective publication shall not exceed the amount actually paid for the affected campaign/insertion.
The client warrants that advertising contents and materials respect intellectual/industrial property, data protection, and third-party rights laws, as well as applicable advertising regulations.
The client shall indemnify Market Version Press against third-party claims arising from client-provided contents.
Market Version Press may update these General Terms, publishing the new version on mvpress.es and/or notifying clients.
- Amendments do not affect campaigns accepted before the new version's effective date, unless the client expressly accepts.
