Terms that matter for this purchase

Scope
A placement within one named article, with article identity and position kept together.
Schedule
Review the exact website period and its timezone. A single observation does not cover every moment of that period.
Device and format context
Only explicitly promised devices
Evidence
Record the exact page, observation time, device or viewport, placement context and access limits for each promised item.
A screenshot matches the placement at one time.
Retain that observation; do not convert it into proof of continuous delivery.
The article URL or headline changes.
Retain the original identity and review whether the revised page is the promised item.
An ad appears beside a different article.
Do not treat that observation as the same purchased article placement.
