Terms of service
Last updated
Effective date: October 3, 2026. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of Spreadiom at spreadiom.com, including our booking pages, embed code, dashboards and emails (the “Service”). Please read them carefully. By creating an account, booking an ad slot or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms.
1. Who we are
The Service is operated by DevTeam Co., Ltd. (“Spreadiom”, “we”, “us”), a company registered in the Republic of Korea (business registration no. 889-06-02572), 509-J492, 5F, 81, Convensia-daero, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon, Republic of Korea. You can reach us at [email protected].
2. What Spreadiom does
Spreadiom is a software tool that helps website owners (“Publishers”) sell advertising space on their own websites directly to advertisers (“Advertisers”). Publishers create ad slots; each slot gets a booking page where Advertisers choose dates, upload a banner and pay. Spreadiom shows the booked banner through the Publisher's embed code, counts impressions and clicks, and sends booking emails.
- Spreadiom is not an ad network or agency. Each booking is an agreement between the Advertiser and the Publisher. Spreadiom provides the tools and is not a party to that agreement.
- Spreadiom does not hold booking money. Advertisers pay the Publisher directly, through the Publisher's own Stripe account (card payments) or the Publisher's own PayPal account. Spreadiom's fee is billed to Publishers separately (see section 5).
3. Accounts
- You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding contract. If you use the Service for a business, you confirm that you are authorized to act for it.
- Keep your account information accurate and your password secure. You are responsible for activity under your account. Tell us promptly at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized access.
- You may sign in with an email and password or with Google or GitHub. Advertisers can book without an account; their private booking link is their way back to a booking.
4. Terms for Publishers
4.1 Getting paid
- To take bookings you connect at least one payment method: your own Stripe account (by entering Stripe API keys — a restricted key is recommended) and/or your PayPal account (by entering your PayPal email).
- Payments are made to you by the Advertiser under the terms of Stripe or PayPal. You are responsible for your Stripe and PayPal accounts, their fees, payouts, disputes and chargebacks, and for complying with their terms.
- We store your Stripe keys encrypted and use them only to create checkouts for your bookings, to charge, release or refund those bookings, and to manage the webhook endpoint we create for your account.
- You are responsible for any taxes on your advertising income and for issuing invoices or receipts to Advertisers where the law requires it.
4.2 Ad slots and delivery
- You set each slot's price, size, minimum and maximum booking length, and whether you approve ads before they run. Describe your slots and audience honestly.
- Keep the embed code in place and show booked ads for the booked dates in the slot as described. If you cannot deliver a booking, cancel it and refund the Advertiser for the days not delivered.
- With approval switched on, a card payment is only authorized at checkout and charged when you approve. A PayPal Advertiser pays after you approve, within 48 hours. Requests you do not review within the review window shown in your dashboard, or before their start date, are canceled automatically and any card authorization is released.
4.3 Cancellations and refunds
- You can cancel a booking from your dashboard with a full refund or, once an ad is running, a refund for the unused days.
- Card refunds are issued through your Stripe account. Bookings paid by PayPal must be refunded by you from your PayPal account; we email you the amount and the transaction.
5. Fees and billing for Publishers
- Free to start. Creating an account, ad slots and booking pages is free.
- Platform fee. Spreadiom charges a platform fee of 5% (or the rate shown in your account) of each completed booking — a live-mode booking that the Advertiser actually paid for, less any amount refunded. Test-mode bookings, declined requests and requests that expire unpaid are never billed.
- Monthly invoice. On the 1st of each month we email an invoice in US dollars for the previous month's completed bookings. Each invoice shows its due date — currently 14 days after the invoice date — and is paid with PayPal. Amounts under USD 1 roll over to the next invoice. Refunds made after an invoice was paid are credited on a later invoice.
- Late payment. We send reminders before and after the due date. If an invoice is still unpaid 14 days after its due date, your booking pages stop taking new bookings until it is paid; ads that are already running keep running. Paying the invoice restores new bookings immediately. We may terminate accounts with invoices that remain unpaid.
- Fees do not include taxes. Payment-processing fees charged by Stripe or PayPal are separate and not part of Spreadiom's fee.
- We may change our fees with at least 30 days' notice by email. Changes do not apply to bookings completed before they take effect.
6. Terms for Advertisers
- When you book, you confirm that the information you give is accurate and that you are authorized to book for the business you advertise.
- Your booking is an agreement with the Publisher at the price shown on the booking page. You pay by card through Stripe Checkout on the Publisher's Stripe account, or with PayPal into the Publisher's PayPal account. Stripe or PayPal sends your receipt.
- Dates are held for a short time while you check out. On slots with approval, your card is only authorized until the Publisher approves; with PayPal, you pay after approval using the link we email you.
- Questions about cancellations and refunds go to the Publisher. Refunds are returned the way you paid. If a Publisher cancels a booking, you are refunded in full or, if your ad already ran, for the days that did not run.
- Impression and click numbers are measured by Spreadiom in good faith but may be affected by ad blockers, caching, bots and other factors. We do not guarantee any particular results.
7. Advertising policy
Ads and their landing pages must be lawful, accurate and not misleading. The following are not allowed:
- adult or sexually explicit content, gambling, illegal drugs, weapons, and content promoting violence, hate or discrimination;
- malware, phishing, deceptive downloads, or landing pages that do not match the ad;
- content that infringes trademarks, copyrights or other rights, or that impersonates another person or business;
- anything that breaks the law where the ad is shown.
Uploaded banners are screened automatically and may be rejected. Publishers may decline any ad, and we may remove ads or cancel bookings that break this policy or these Terms.
8. Acceptable use
You must not misuse the Service, including by: breaking the law; generating fake impressions or clicks; interfering with or overloading the Service; attempting to access accounts or data that are not yours; scraping or reverse engineering the Service except as the law allows; or using the Service to send spam.
9. Your content
You keep ownership of the content you provide, such as ad creatives, slot descriptions and logos. You give Spreadiom a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, copy, resize, screen and display that content as needed to operate the Service, and you confirm that you have the rights to grant it. The Spreadiom name, logo, software and website remain our property.
10. Third-party services
The Service relies on third parties, including Stripe, PayPal, Cloudflare, Amazon Web Services, OpenAI, Google and GitHub. Your use of their services is subject to their own terms, and we are not responsible for their availability or actions.
11. Suspension and termination
You may stop using the Service and ask us to close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these Terms, do not pay invoices, create risk or possible legal exposure for us or others, or if required by law. Termination does not affect fees owed for bookings completed before it, or refunds owed to Advertisers.
12. Disclaimers
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the extent permitted by law, we make no warranties of any kind, including that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free or meet your requirements. We do not guarantee bookings, revenue, traffic or advertising results.
13. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, Spreadiom is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue or data. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the fees you paid to Spreadiom in the 12 months before the claim, or USD 100 if you paid none. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, such as liability for intent or gross negligence.
14. Indemnity
If you use the Service for a business, you will indemnify Spreadiom against claims arising from your ads, your website, your bookings with other users, or your breach of these Terms or the law.
15. Changes
We may update the Service and these Terms. For material changes we will notify account holders by email or on the website at least 14 days in advance, unless a change is required sooner by law. Continuing to use the Service after changes take effect means you accept them.
16. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea. Disputes are subject to the competent courts of the Republic of Korea. If you are a consumer, you also keep any protections given to you by the mandatory laws of the country where you live.
