Terms of Use

Welcome to Ampd!

Ampd (“Ampd”, “we” or “us”) develops and operates a cloud-based ad management and analysis platform (“Platform”). Our platform makes it easy for customers of Ampd (“Customers” or “you”) to manage and optimize their digital ad campaigns across ad networks, including Google Ads.

This document, the Ampd Terms of Service ("Terms"), outlines the terms regarding your use of our Services. These Terms are a legally binding contract between you and Ampd, so please read carefully. If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not register for or use our Services.

By using our Platform or any of our other services via any websites, applications, mobile applications, software or other properties operated by Ampd, or by registering for an Ampd account (our Platform and all such other services, collectively, "Services"), you are agreeing to be bound by these Terms.

If you are accessing or using our Services on behalf of an organization, you are agreeing to these Terms for that organization and warranting to Ampd that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

Privacy

In order to operate our Services and maintain contact with Customers, Ampd collects, maintains and uses certain personal information. How we collect, use, store and protect this information is detailed in our Privacy Policy. You acknowledge that your use of our Services is subject to this privacy policy.

Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. We will post the most current version of these Terms at Ampd.io. If we make any material changes to these Terms, we will notify you via email to the address associated with your Ampd account. If you do not accept these changes, you must stop using our Services and cancel your Ampd account by emailing info@ampd.io. Your continued use of our Services after we publish or send notice about changes to these Terms means that you are consenting to the updated terms.

Your Account

Use of our Services requires you to create an Ampd account by completing a registration form and designating an email and password. You are responsible for any content that you upload, post or otherwise transmit via our Services. Only you may use your Ampd account and you are responsible for your Ampd account. If you become aware of any unauthorized use of our Services or your Ampd account, please email info@ampd.io.

Ampd reserves the right to refuse registration of any accounts, or cancel passwords for any accounts, that it deems inappropriate in its sole discretion.

Services and Support

The general service descriptions and specifications of our Services and the applicable price list can be found on our website at Ampd.io and in our mobile applications. Broadly, the Platform manages, measures, and optimizes digital advertising sales through algorithmically-driven copywriting, targeting and conversion optimization on behalf of our customers, based on goals set by the customers in the apps.

The main service that Ampd provides is access to our Platform and our other Services via the Internet through our website or mobile apps. Subject to these Terms, Ampd will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Customer the Services. Any other services, including support, are only provided as accompanying services after prior agreement on the use of the Platform. Ampd may, but is not obliged to, provide any support services to customers, unless obliged to by law.

The Customer recognizes that Ampd is designed to act as the exclusive digital marketing and technology solution in relation to Amazon.com and affiliated sites, and that engaging any other third parties or software solutions to carry out services that are the same or similar to the Services provided by Ampd may prevent Ampd from providing the Customer the Service.

The Customer must create its own Ampd account for use of the Platform. Ampd will grant the Customer through this Ampd account, the contractually agreed access to use the Platform and our other Services.

Ampd may, but is not obliged to, at any time extend the Platform with additional software features, adapt and improve features and introduce additional security measures.

Certain features that Ampd offers in the Platform and our other Services depend on data provided by Amazon and other sources. It is possible that Ampd may need to change or reduce functionality as a consequence of changes to the data made available by Amazon or such other sources. If such a change is required, and such change significantly impedes the Customer's ability to use the Platform, an extraordinary right to terminate its subscription will be provided to Customer.

Details on the prices, terms of agreement and scope of access to the Platform and our other Services granted to Customer may also be agreed to in individual contracts between Ampd and Customer. Those terms apply in addition to the more general terms of these Terms. In the case of contradictions between the individual contracts and these Terms, the provisions of the individual contracts take precedence.

Once an account has been connected to the Ampd platform, advertising and retail sales data will be synced to Ampd’s databases on an ongoing basis, regardless of whether the Customer is then currently a paid subscriber, until such time that the Customer revokes API access or that the Customer requests the deletion of their Ampd account by emailing info@ampd.io. 

Customer warrants that the data supplied by the Customer for analysis will not violate any laws or infringe on the rights of third parties. In the event of a violation, Ampd may suspend the Customer's access to the Services.
