The decision this record supports

Who must supply, approve and hand over each current material?

A stable creative specification is reusable.
Current links, dates and delivery promises still require a fresh review.
A file passes a technical size check.
That alone does not prove semantic suitability, publisher acceptance or delivery.

Terms that matter for this purchase

Scope
The same page is purchased for separate named periods; gaps are outside the promise unless explicitly included.
Schedule
Review the exact website period and its timezone. A single observation does not cover every moment of that period.
Device and format context
Devices explicitly quoted for each period
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 ad is absent during an unpurchased gap.
Do not count that alone as a difference from the stated periods.
Evidence covers W1 but not W2.
Keep the later period review separate and pending.

What to collect from the original

  • Publisher and named contact — Use the contact on the current original. This is not a verification of selling rights.
  • Buyer brand and market — Record the current buyer context.
  • Quoted purchase total, currency and tax basis — Copy the quoted total. Leave an absent amount or tax basis unknown.
  • Agreed destination URL — Use the current original; no delivery or safety claim follows from a valid URL.
  • Agreed page or page list — Use exact URLs and identify the item covered by each.
  • Position and format — A preferred position is different from a publisher’s actual promise.
  • Agreed device coverage — Keep each promised device explicit; do not infer mobile from desktop.
  • Buying period and timezone — Keep date-only terms as dates. Record exact instants only when agreed.
  • Period item references — Retain each period as a separate delivery item.
  • Current original and exact version — Give a reference to material you are authorized to use. A link or working record does not verify the publisher.
  • Stable creative specifications — Use current supported dimensions, formats, size and text limits.
  • Current artwork and destination — Identify current versions rather than recycling an old link.
  • Production, review and submission owners — Name each handoff explicitly.
  • Agreed deadline and evidence — Keep absent or date-only terms as supplied.
