Advertising Space Lease Agreement

PUNYCODEX Flagship Temple Network

Effective Date: June 11, 2026

1. Definitions

"Lessor"
PUNYCODEX, the owner and operator of the flagship temple pages and associated Unicode domains.
"Lessee" / "Advertiser"
The individual or entity leasing advertising space on a PUNYCODEX temple page.
"Temple Page"
An individual flagship landing page within the PUNYCODEX network (e.g., nike.com, chaos.com, zeus.com).
"Slot"
A designated advertising position on a Temple Page. Each Temple Page contains up to 13 Slots, including 12 individual positions and 1 Full-Page Takeover Slot.
"Lease Period"
The duration of the advertising lease, either Monthly (1 month) or Yearly (12 months).
"Page Views"
The total number of unique page loads on a specific Temple Page within a calendar month, as measured by PUNYCODEX analytics.
"Base Price"
The starting monthly lease price for a Slot before any view-based adjustments.

2. Lease Terms

2.1 Monthly Lease

All leases are month-to-month unless a Yearly lease is selected. Monthly leases automatically renew on the same calendar date each month unless cancelled by either party with at least 7 days written notice prior to the renewal date.

2.2 Yearly Lease

A Yearly lease provides a 10% discount off the aggregated monthly Base Price for the selected Slot(s). The price is locked for the entire 12-month duration — even if the Temple Page enters a higher traffic tier or demand increases, the Lessee pays the original rate until the yearly term ends. Yearly leases are non-refundable but may be transferred to another Slot or Temple Page with 14 days notice, subject to availability.

2.3 Renewal & Rate Lock

Upon renewal, the Lessee's rate is locked at the Base Price effective at the time of booking, plus any view-based multiplier adjustments applied during the Lease Period. If a view-based tier increase occurs mid-lease, the new rate applies at the next renewal.

Example: You book Slot 01 on a Temple Page at $60/month while it is in the Base tier (0–2,500 views). Three months later, the page hits the Growth tier (2,501–10,000 views). Your next renewal will be at $90/month (Base × 1.5). You are never charged mid-cycle.

All prices are in USD. Payment is processed via Stripe. A 2.9% + $0.30 processing fee is added at checkout.

3.2 Traffic & Demand Benchmarks

PUNYCODEX uses a discretionary performance-based pricing model. The following view benchmarks inform pricing decisions but do not trigger automatic increases. PUNYCODEX evaluates each Temple Page independently, considering both traffic and advertiser demand.

BenchmarkMonthly Page ViewsTypical Multiplier
Base0 – 2,5001.0×
Growth2,501 – 10,000Up to 1.5×
Established10,001 – 50,000Up to 2.5×
Popular50,001 – 200,000Up to 4.0×
Viral200,000+Up to 6.0×

How it works: A Temple Page averaging 8,000 views/month may be priced in the Growth range — but only if advertiser demand justifies it. A page with 50,000 views but low demand may remain at Base pricing. Conversely, a page with only 3,000 views but high competition for slots may see increases sooner. PUNYCODEX has sole discretion.

3.3 Notice of Price Change

PUNYCODEX will notify all active Lessees on an affected Temple Page at least 30 days before any price increase takes effect at renewal. Lessees may cancel their lease without penalty before the new rate applies. Price decreases may take effect immediately and benefit all renewals.

4. Content Standards & Prohibited Use

All advertising content must comply with the following standards. PUNYCODEX reserves the right to reject or remove any creative that violates these guidelines.

4.1 Prohibited Content

4.2 Creative Requirements

4.3 Approval Process

All creative is reviewed within 24–48 hours of submission. PUNYCODEX may approve, reject, or request modifications. The Lessee will be notified via email. If rejected, the Lessee may submit revised creative at no additional cost. The lease period begins upon creative approval, not at the time of payment.

5. Payment Terms

5.1 Billing

All charges are billed in advance. Monthly leases are billed on the same calendar date each month. Yearly leases are billed in full at the start of the Lease Period.

5.2 Failed Payment

If a payment fails, the Lessee has 3 calendar days to resolve the issue. After 3 days, the Slot becomes available for other advertisers. No refund is issued for partial months.

5.3 Refunds

Monthly leases: No refunds for partial months. Lessees may cancel at any time; the Slot remains active until the end of the current billing period.

Yearly leases: Non-refundable. In exceptional circumstances (e.g., persistent technical failure preventing ad display for >7 consecutive days), PUNYCODEX may, at its sole discretion, offer a pro-rata credit toward future advertising.

5.4 Price Adjustments

PUNYCODEX may adjust Base Prices for new bookings with 30 days notice posted on this page. Price adjustments are based on a combination of Temple Page traffic, advertiser demand, slot availability, and market conditions. Existing leases are not affected by Base Price changes unless the Lessee elects to renew at the new rate.

6. Termination

6.1 By Lessee

The Lessee may cancel their lease at any time through their advertiser dashboard or by emailing support@punycodex.com. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.

6.2 By Lessor

PUNYCODEX may terminate a lease immediately if the Lessee violates content standards, engages in fraudulent activity, or fails to resolve a payment issue within 3 days. In cases of content violation, no refund will be issued.

6.3 Effect of Termination

Upon termination, the Lessee's creative is removed from the Temple Page within 24 hours. The Lessee retains access to their advertiser dashboard for 90 days to download performance reports.

7. Analytics & Performance

Each Lessee receives access to a private advertiser dashboard showing:

PUNYCODEX uses privacy-respecting analytics. No personal data is collected from visitors. Metrics are provided as-is and PUNYCODEX does not guarantee specific performance outcomes.

8. Intellectual Property

9. Limitation of Liability
