Delivering click-through or conversion rates that are much higher than industry averages and
where solid justification for such higher click-through or conversion rates is not evident to
the reasonable satisfaction of MintAds.
Having ONLY click or lead generation programs generating clicks or leads with no indication by
site traffic that it can sustain the clicks or leads reported. Showing fraudulent leads, as
determined by the Advertisers. Using any incentives to procure clicks/sales or leads. Using
content locking to procure clicks/sales or leads. Providing leads obtained other than through
intended consumer action. For instance, the use of phone books, or similar such compilations of
personal data, to complete lead generation forms shall be considered fraudulent behaviour.

from the Programs shall be considered fraudulent behaviour.
If Publisher fraudulently adds leads or clicks or inflates leads or clicks by fraudulent traffic
generation (such as pre-population of forms or mechanisms not approved by MintAds or use of
sites in coregistration campaigns that have not been approved by Advertiser), as determined
solely by MintAds, the Publisher will forfeit its entire commission for all programs and its
account will be terminated at a minimum, and if determined to be egregious in nature, may face
additional legal action if MintAds or the Advertiser deems pertinent. If Publisher is notified
that fraudulent activities may be occurring on its Medium, and Publisher fails to take prompt
action to stop the fraudulent activities, then, in addition to any other remedies available to
MintAds, Publisher shall be responsible for all costs and legal fees arising from these
fraudulent activities.In addition, in the event that Publisher has already received payment for
fraudulent activities, MintAds reserves the right to seek credit or remedy from future earnings
or to demand reimbursement from Publisher.
Advertiser accounts are flagged for the following reasons, among others not listed herein:

Including but not limited to its obligation to deliver on the Services or Goods outlines in the
