- "POC" means the proof-of-concept period consisting of the first three (3) full calendar months of the Term, measured by monthly anniversaries of the Effective Date (Months 1–3; marketed as the "90-day POC"), during which Edgemesh assumes management of spend in steps and the Performance Guarantee does not apply.
- "Performance Guarantee" means Edgemesh's monthly guarantee of the Guaranteed Target, which applies once Edgemesh reaches Full Management, as defined in Section 6, the Order Form, and the Guarantee Documentation.
- "Full Management" means Edgemesh's management of one hundred percent (100%) of Customer's Meta and Google advertising spend within the Managed Channels. Full Management begins after the POC, once Edgemesh has assumed management of the full spend.
- "Guaranteed Target" means the monthly performance benchmark mutually agreed by the parties, expressed as a revenue target and an efficiency target (together with the implied managed-spend level for that month), selected by Customer from the achievable options Edgemesh models for that month under the Guarantee Documentation.
- "Guarantee Documentation" means Edgemesh's then-current guarantee and mechanics document referenced by the Order Form, as updated from time to time by agreement of the parties.
- "Assumptions Schedule" means the set of agreed inputs and operating assumptions, set out in or referenced by the Order Form, on which each month's guaranteed target is built.
- "Customer Data" means data Customer provides or makes accessible to Edgemesh, and data Edgemesh collects on Customer's behalf in operating the Services, including Shopify, Meta, and Google account and performance data.
- "Forecast" means an illustrative, pre-engagement or in-engagement projection of expected results. A Forecast is not a guarantee.
2. The Services
Edgemesh provides a managed advertising and analytics service in which Edgemesh:
(a) Operates Customer's Meta and Google advertising accounts on Customer's behalf in an agency capacity, including planning, building, launching, optimizing, and adjusting campaigns and budgets within the Managed Channels and the agreed spend band;
(b) Provides bundled Analytics and Attribution built on Edgemesh's server-side, first-party data platform; and
(c) Once Edgemesh reaches Full Management, provides the Performance Guarantee described in Section 6.
The specific scope, domains, targets, spend band, and deliverables for a given engagement are stated in the Order Form. Edgemesh will perform the Services using commercially reasonable skill and care. Edgemesh does not provide legal, tax, or accounting advice.
3. Order Forms & Incorporation
Each engagement is governed by an Order Form that incorporates these Terms. In the event of a conflict, the Order Form (including its Assumptions Schedule and guarantee targets) controls over the Guarantee Documentation, which controls over these Terms — except that these Terms control over the Order Form and the Guarantee Documentation on matters of limitation of liability, indemnification, and dispute resolution. A Data Processing Addendum ("DPA"), if executed or referenced, is incorporated by reference (see Section 9).
4. Fees, Billing & Taxes
(a) Fee. The fee for the Services is $7,500 per month, per domain, flat, as stated on the Order Form. The fee applies throughout the engagement, including the POC, regardless of the amount of Media Spend managed in any given month.
(b) Media Spend is separate. Edgemesh's fee does not include Media Spend. Customer funds all Media Spend directly with the platforms, or reimburses Edgemesh where the Order Form provides for Edgemesh-fronted spend. Media Spend is never part of Edgemesh's fee, its revenue, or — for the avoidance of doubt — any guarantee remedy (see Section 6).
(c) Billing. Billing cadence, invoicing, and payment terms are set out in the Order Form.
(d) Taxes. Fees are exclusive of taxes. Customer is responsible for all sales, use, VAT, and similar taxes, excluding taxes on Edgemesh's net income.
5. Term & Termination
(a) Term. These Terms and each Order Form are month-to-month.
(b) Termination for convenience. Either party may terminate the engagement at any time on 30 days' written notice, including during the POC. No annual commitment or lock-in applies.
(c) Effect of termination. On termination, Customer pays for Services rendered through the effective date. Any guarantee credit owed for a missed month with no subsequent month is refunded rather than credited (see Section 6). Edgemesh will, on request and where commercially reasonable, cooperate in an orderly transition of account access back to Customer.
(d) Survival. Sections 8–16 survive termination.
6. The Performance Guarantee
(a) Forecast vs. Guarantee — timing. Edgemesh provides an illustrative Forecast from the start of the engagement. The Performance Guarantee applies only once Edgemesh reaches Full Management — that is, once Edgemesh manages one hundred percent (100%) of the Managed Channels, which occurs after the POC. Edgemesh makes no guarantee before Full Management, and a Forecast is not a guarantee.
(b) Mechanics by reference. For each month at or after Full Management, the parties mutually agree a Guaranteed Target consisting of a revenue target and an efficiency target, together with the implied managed-spend level. Edgemesh models the achievable options for the account and month; Customer selects the Guaranteed Target from those options, as further described in the Guarantee Documentation. The spend band, the measurement methodology, and the monthly reset are governed by the Order Form and the Guarantee Documentation, which are incorporated here by reference. Net Shopify web revenue and managed Meta + Google spend are measured from authoritative source data each month from the first full month of Full Management.
(c) Remedy — capped at Edgemesh's fee. If Edgemesh misses a guaranteed month, the remedy is that that month's $7,500 fee is credited to the following month, or refunded on termination if there is no following month. The guarantee remedy is capped at Edgemesh's own monthly fee and never extends to, reimburses, or is measured against Customer's Media Spend. This fee credit/refund is Customer's sole and exclusive remedy for a missed guaranteed month.
(d) Assumptions Schedule re-bases the target. Each month's target is built on the Assumptions Schedule. A change to any agreed input or operating assumption (for example, the spend band, promotion calendar, pricing/AOV, product launches, or maintenance of other channels) re-bases the target through a new, pro-rated Forecast — the guarantee is adjusted, not voided.
(e) Platform Disruption & Force Majeure — suspension. Distinct from the Assumptions Schedule, a Platform Disruption means an advertising-platform or technology-provider event outside Edgemesh's control (including outages, material algorithm or auction changes, attribution/privacy/policy changes, account restrictions, suspensions, learning-phase resets, disapprovals, or delivery throttling not caused by Edgemesh) — in each case only where the event has a material adverse effect on delivery or measurement for Customer's account. Ordinary-course algorithm fluctuations and routine platform changes are not Platform Disruptions.
Determination, notice & dispute. Edgemesh determines a Platform Disruption in its reasonable, good-faith discretion and must give Customer written notice within two (2) business days of invoking one, identifying the event and its expected impact. The suspension runs from the date of that notice (not retroactively). If Customer disputes the determination in writing within five (5) business days, the parties confer in good faith. If the parties do not reach agreement, Edgemesh's reasonable, good-faith determination stands.
A Platform Disruption or a Force Majeure event (Section 17) suspends the guarantee. During a suspension the guarantee does not accrue against Edgemesh, the measurement period is equitably extended until normal operations resume, and no refund, credit, fee reduction, or make-good is owed for disruption-caused degradation. Edgemesh uses commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate.
(f) No other warranty of results. Except for the express remedy in this Section 6, Edgemesh makes no warranty or guarantee of any specific result (see Section 13).
(g) Testing. Customer may request creative or audience tests (including A/B tests at any funnel stage) at any time, via the monthly inputs process or a standalone test-request form. For each request, Edgemesh will return an estimated test budget and estimated duration, modeled from the account's own data for the requested funnel stage. No test launches without Customer's explicit written approval of that budget and duration. For each approved test, Customer will deliver any new creative at least three (3) business days before the scheduled start date, or confirm in the request that existing creative is sufficient; creative delivered late postpones or, at Edgemesh's election, cancels the test. Approved test spend is excluded from managed Meta + Google spend for guarantee measurement — it never enters the MER denominator — while all net Shopify web revenue, including revenue attributable to tests, continues to count in the numerator. Whether to run any test is Customer's decision; Edgemesh provides the cost and duration analysis.
7. Customer Responsibilities & Assumptions
(a-1) Inventory. Customer will maintain inventory sufficient to meet the revenue target Customer selects each month. Edgemesh does not collect or verify inventory counts; insufficient inventory that prevents achievement of the selected target is a Customer-side assumption failure that re-bases the target under Section 6(d).
Customer will, throughout the engagement:
(a) Maintain account access. Provide and continuously maintain Edgemesh's access to the relevant Shopify, Meta, and Google accounts and any other systems needed to deliver the Services;
(b) Fund Media Spend. Fund all Media Spend and keep platform billing in good standing;
(c) Maintain other channels. Maintain other paid and owned channels (for example TikTok, Amazon, email, SMS, affiliate) at the agreed levels, and not pause or materially cut activity that blended MER depends on, without a re-forecast;
(d) No major change without re-forecast. Not replatform, rebrand, change brand positioning, change control of the business, open or close a sales channel, change target market or geographies, or discontinue a product line in a way that materially shifts demand, without triggering a re-forecast under Section 6(d);
(e) Supply creative and approvals. Provide agreed creative assets, brand approvals, and any required sign-offs within the agreed turnaround; and
(f) Maintain site and tracking. Keep the site and checkout operational and stable and keep tracking and pixels intact.
Customer is responsible for the accuracy and lawfulness of the materials, instructions, and data it supplies. Edgemesh may rely on Customer's instructions and approvals.
8. Ad-Account Operation & Authorization; Agency-Operation Liability
(a) Authorization. Customer authorizes Edgemesh to access and operate Customer's Meta and Google advertising accounts on Customer's behalf, including creating, editing, pausing, and optimizing campaigns and adjusting budgets within the agreed spend band, and to use automated and algorithmic tools, rules, and bidding in doing so.
(b) Customer owns the accounts and funds the spend. Customer owns its advertising accounts and is solely responsible for all Media Spend and budgets. Edgemesh's operation of the accounts does not transfer ownership of, or responsibility for funding, those accounts.
(c) Automation is not a guarantee. Edgemesh's optimization, automation, and algorithmic management are tools applied with commercially reasonable efforts; they are not a guarantee of success or efficacy beyond the express contractual remedy in Section 6. Customer acknowledges that automated changes, rules, or optimizations may, despite reasonable efforts, increase spend, reduce sales, or otherwise produce unintended outcomes, and that — except for the Section 6 remedy — Edgemesh is not liable for such outcomes.
(d) Platform actions are Customer's risk. Account suspensions, bans, throttling, ad disapprovals, policy enforcement, billing holds, or other actions taken by Meta, Google, or any platform that are not caused by Edgemesh are Customer's risk and are outside Edgemesh's liability. Edgemesh does not control the platforms and does not warrant their availability, decisions, or policies.
(e) Commercially reasonable efforts. Edgemesh will operate the accounts in accordance with the applicable platform terms and policies of which it is aware, using commercially reasonable efforts.
9. Data Protection
(a) Independent controllers. Each party acts as an independent controller (and, under U.S. state privacy laws, as a separate business) with respect to the personal data it processes in connection with the Services, each determining the purposes and means of its own processing. Edgemesh does not act as Customer's processor or service provider.
(b) DPA. Where a data protection or data-sharing addendum ("DPA") is executed or referenced by the Order Form, it is incorporated by reference and governs the parties' processing of personal data, including any required terms under the GDPR (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), the UK GDPR, and the CCPA/CPRA.
(c) Data-subject requests. As an independent controller, each party is responsible for responding to data-subject or consumer rights requests relating to the personal data it controls, and the parties will reasonably cooperate to enable each to meet its obligations.
(d) Compliance. Each party will comply with applicable data-protection laws, including the GDPR (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), the UK GDPR, and the CCPA/CPRA.
10. Confidentiality
Each party may receive the other's non-public information ("Confidential Information"). The receiving party will use it only to perform under these Terms, protect it with reasonable care, and not disclose it except to personnel and advisors with a need to know who are bound by similar obligations. Confidential Information does not include information that is public through no fault of the receiving party, independently developed, or rightfully received from a third party. This Section does not restrict disclosure required by law, provided reasonable notice is given where lawful.
Non-disparagement. Neither party will knowingly make or publish any false or misleading statement that disparages the other party or its products, services, or reputation. This Section does not restrict truthful statements, good-faith and honest opinions or reviews, disclosures required by law or legal process, or statements made to enforce this agreement.
11. Intellectual Property
(a) Customer's property. Customer retains all right, title, and interest in Customer Data, its advertising accounts, its creative, products, trademarks, and content.
(b) Edgemesh's property. Edgemesh retains all right, title, and interest in its platform, software, models, methods, know-how, and the Services, and in aggregated and de-identified learnings, benchmarks, and improvements derived from operating the Services, provided such aggregated/de-identified data does not identify Customer or any individual.
(c) License. Customer grants Edgemesh a non-exclusive license to use Customer Data and Customer's marks solely to provide the Services during the term.
12. Publicity & Use of Name
Neither party will use the other's name, logo, or identify it as a customer or provider in marketing or publicity without the other party's prior consent. Consent may be given in the Order Form or separately.
13. Disclaimers
(a) No guarantee of results beyond Section 6. Except for the express fee credit/refund remedy in Section 6, Edgemesh does not guarantee any specific result, revenue, ROAS, sales, or marketing outcome. Forecasts are illustrative and not guarantees.
(b) "As is" otherwise. Except as expressly stated in these Terms and the Order Form, the Services are provided "as is" and "as available," and Edgemesh disclaims all other warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, to the maximum extent permitted by law.
14. Limitation of Liability
(a) No indirect damages. Neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, goodwill, or data, even if advised of the possibility.
(b) Cap. Except as provided in the Carve-outs paragraph of this Section 14, Edgemesh's total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms and the Services is capped at the total fees paid by Customer to Edgemesh in the trailing three (3) months preceding the event giving rise to liability.
(c) Carve-outs. The cap in Section 14(b) and the exclusion of indirect damages in Section 14(a) do not apply to: (i) Customer's payment obligations; (ii) the indemnification obligations in Section 15; (iii) breach of confidentiality (Section 10); and (iv) a party's gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud.
(d) Media Spend excluded. For the avoidance of doubt and consistent with Section 6(c), Edgemesh's liability never extends to Customer's Media Spend.
15. Indemnification (Mutual)
(a) By Edgemesh. Edgemesh will defend Customer against third-party claims alleging that the Services, as provided by Edgemesh, infringe that third party's intellectual property rights, and will indemnify Customer for damages finally awarded, or settlement amounts approved by Edgemesh, for such claims. If the Services are, or in Edgemesh's opinion are likely to become, the subject of such a claim, Edgemesh may, at its option and expense: (i) procure the right for Customer to continue using the Services; (ii) modify or replace the Services so they are non-infringing while materially preserving their functionality; or (iii) if neither (i) nor (ii) is commercially reasonable, terminate the affected Services and refund any prepaid, unused fees for them. Edgemesh has no obligation under this Section for any claim arising from: (a) Customer's data, content, creative, products, or trademarks; (b) Customer's modifications to the Services; (c) combination or use of the Services with items not provided by Edgemesh, where the claim arises from the combination; or (d) use of the Services other than as authorized. This Section states Edgemesh's entire liability, and Customer's exclusive remedy, for third-party intellectual-property claims.
(b) By Customer. Customer will defend and indemnify Edgemesh against third-party claims arising from Customer's products, content, creative, trademarks, and data, from Customer's instructions to Edgemesh, or from Customer's breach of these Terms or of applicable platform terms or law.
(c) Procedure. The indemnified party will give prompt notice, allow the indemnifying party to control the defense (with the indemnified party's reasonable cooperation), and not settle without consent (not unreasonably withheld).
16. Dispute Resolution; Governing Law; Time to File
(a) Dispute resolution. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, before a single arbitrator, seated in New York, New York. Each party waives any right to bring or participate in a class, collective, or representative action, and the arbitrator may not consolidate the claims of more than one party or preside over any class or representative proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may (i) bring an individual claim in a small-claims court of competent jurisdiction, and (ii) seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of its intellectual property, confidential information, or platform. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each party waives any right to a jury trial for any claim or dispute not subject to arbitration. Any court proceeding permitted under this Section will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New York, New York, and each party consents to personal jurisdiction there. Judgment on any arbitral award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
(b) Governing law. These Terms, and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Services, are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Exclusive venue is as set out in the dispute-resolution provision above.
(c) Limitation on time to file. Any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services must be brought within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues, or it is permanently barred, to the extent permitted by law.
17. Force Majeure
Neither party is liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including acts of nature, acts of a public enemy, embargoes, insurrection, riot, government action, and failures of telecommunications, interconnection providers, carriers, suppliers, or other third parties. As applied to the Performance Guarantee, Force Majeure operates as a suspension under Section 6(e).
18. General
(a) Assignment. Neither party may assign these Terms without the other's consent, except to a successor in a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all assets, on notice.
(b) Severability. If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect and the provision is reformed to the minimum extent necessary.
(c) Entire agreement. These Terms, the Order Form, the Guarantee Documentation, and any DPA are the entire agreement on their subject matter and supersede prior discussions.
(d) Notices. Notices are in writing and given to the contacts on the Order Form, effective on receipt (or, for email, on confirmed delivery).
(e) Changes. Edgemesh may update these Terms on reasonable notice; material changes take effect at the start of the next monthly term, and continued use constitutes acceptance.
(f) No waiver; relationship. No waiver is implied by a failure to enforce. The parties are independent contractors; Edgemesh acts as Customer's agent only to the limited extent expressly authorized in Section 8.
