Access Publishing — Print Advertising Agreement

Version 1.0 · Last updated October 27, 2026

This Print Advertising Agreement (the “Agreement”) is between North County Access, LLC (“we” / “us”), publisher of the San Luis Obispo County Visitors Guide and our other print publications, and the advertiser who accepts it by completing payment (“you” / the “Advertiser”).

1. Your order

Your ad size, the issue(s) it runs in, and the price are shown at checkout or on your order. If anything on an order conflicts with this Agreement, this Agreement applies.

2. One-time ads

A one-time ad runs in the issue(s) listed on your order and is paid in full up front. You may cancel for a full refund before the ad deadline for that issue. After the ad deadline, the space is committed and the ad can’t be cancelled or refunded.

3. Renewing ads

Some ads renew automatically for each new issue or billing period at the price on your order until you cancel. They are billed to your card or bank account on file as shown at checkout. To stop a renewing ad, give us written notice (email is fine) before the ad deadline of the next issue. Issues already past their ad deadline are still due.

4. Deadlines and proofs

We’ll tell you the ad deadline for each issue. Ad materials and approvals are due by that deadline. We can design your ad at no extra charge unless your order says otherwise. We’ll send you a proof to approve. Once you approve a proof, or if you don’t respond by the deadline, we’ll run the ad as proofed or repeat your last approved ad.

5. Payment

Payments are processed securely through Stripe. If a payment fails, we may hold your ad from the next issue until your account is current. Prices may change; renewing advertisers get at least 30 days’ notice before a new price applies to them.

6. Your ad content

You confirm you have the right to use everything in your ad (text, images, logos) and that it’s truthful and legal. You’re responsible for your ad’s content. If someone makes a claim against us because of your ad, you’ll cover our resulting costs, including reasonable legal fees.

7. Our right to decline

We may decline any ad. If we decline an ad you’ve paid for, we’ll refund your payment for it.

8. Placement and results

Unless your order guarantees a specific position, placement in the publication is at our discretion. Print runs, distribution areas, and dates are our best estimates and may vary. We don’t guarantee calls, leads, or sales.

9. Errors

Please check your proof carefully. If we make an error in your ad that you didn’t approve and that materially affects it, we’ll run a corrected ad in the next issue or credit you for that ad. That is the full extent of our responsibility for errors. We’re not responsible for errors you approved on a proof.

10. Limit of responsibility

Our total responsibility under this Agreement is limited to the amount you paid for the ad involved. We’re not responsible for indirect losses such as lost profits or lost business.

11. The basics

This Agreement is the whole agreement between us and replaces anything said before. Any changes must be in writing. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California.

Acceptance

By completing payment, you agree to these terms. Completing payment has the same legal effect as signing this Agreement.
