3.1 In order to request the Services You shall email Us at info@­eventowl.­co.­uk with Your proposal for an Advert.  You must specify in Your proposal whether the Advert is desired to be listed on the Website in general, an Event Organiser’s individual event page, or on Our weekly event list updates and if You fail to designate as such then You shall be deemed to have requested an Advert for the Website in general.  The proposal must contain a simple advert and link to Your home page/special offer page (‘the Advert Content’).

3.2 We shall acknowledge receipt of Your proposal (‘the Ac­know­led­gem­ent’), assess its suitability and undertake Our background checks on You.

3.3 If:

(a) You satisfy Our background checks then We shall either notify You that:

(i) Your proposal is suitable; or

3.9 You agree and acknowledge that We may establish an account for the purposes of collecting data for Website analytics based on traffic passing through Your Advert.  We may at Our absolute discretion provide You with access to a page on Our Website which shall enable You to monitor the success of the Advert.
