'The Business’ shall be defined as The Connection Magazine

‘The Publication’ shall be defined as The Connection Magazine

‘The Client’ shall be defined as the person or company with whom goods and/or services are to be supplied.

Copy Deadline and formats

The copy deadline for all advertisements and editorial features is as stated on the advertise page on this website. It is usually around the 28th of every other month (February, April, June, August, October, December).

If alterations to The Client's existing advert are not received by the copy deadline it will be assumed that the advert published in the previous edition will be used.

It cannot be guaranteed that copy received after the deadline date will be included in The Publication.

The Business takes no responsibility for loss or damage resulting in an advert being incorrect, having been proofed and approved by The Client.

Copy can be supplied in any of the accepted formats as detailed on the advertise page of this website

The Business reserves the right to refuse advertisements which may be defamatory or offensive, or which promote products that many be considered indecent or illegal.

Invoicing and payment

All invoices raised by The Business shall become due for payment by the date shown on the invoice, unless consent is expressly given in writing to The Client for an extension of this period.

Invoices which are overdue for a period in excess of fourteen days from the invoice due date for any services will be subject to credit control procedures which may or may not include the filing of a County Court Order.

Business reserves the right to charge The Client for any external credit control services used in relation to recovery of The Client’s outstanding debt and The Business also reserves the right to charge compound interest on any debts older than fourteen days from the due date on the invoice.

It is The Business' usual practice to invoice The Client when the publication in which their advert appears is printed (around the 15th of the months of January, March, May, July, September and November).

If monies are received by The Business prior to invoicing it will be assumed by The Business that the monies received are in relation to a future booking. The Business will, however, inform The Client of the booking and if The Client subsequently requests a refund of the money (prior to the copy deadline of that booking) The Business will refund their monies.
