• refrain from blink­ing, flash­ing, jump­ing, trav­el­ing across the page, play­ing music or sound, or oth­er­wise annoy­ing our site visitors
• be appro­pri­ate for view­ing by young children
• not pro­mote acts of abuse, vio­lence, or war; con­tain no profanity

The Legal Stuff:

In the event an adver­tise­ment inad­ver­tent­ly con­tains a sub­stan­tive error or omis­sion that is Wind­ing Oak’s respon­si­bil­i­ty, adver­tis­er will not be charged the cost of the ad for one month. If the error is non-sub­stan­tive and Wind­ing Oak fix­es it with­in 24 hours, there will be no cred­it giv­en for the cost of the ad.

Wind­ing Oak is not liable for errors in adver­tis­ing copy, con­tent, or graph­ics sup­plied by the adver­tis­er. We will work to quick­ly re-post the new ad sup­plied by the advertiser.

If adver­tis­er can­cels ad before ad is post­ed online, adver­tis­er may qual­i­fy for a pro-rat­ed refund sent with­in 60 days.

If adver­tis­er can­cels the ad after the ad is post­ed online, the ad can be removed but there will be no refund.

Invoic­es will be sent via PDF by e‑mail unless a hard copy is request­ed and a postal address is provided.
