Privacy Policy & Terms

I, the customer, agree and acknowledge that I fully understand that I am placing an order on advertisingresults.com to be placed in the advertising programs I have selected. I understand that when placing text into the advertisements are restricted to the text amounts I have purchased. This is a classified ad, unless otherwise stated, and formatting requests can be considered, but not guaranteed. Ad copy may be modified in placement to meet the needs of the newspapers' format or correct obvious typos on the part of the advertiser. Minor modifications may be made to an ad to keep it at the purchase price in the event that an advertiser submits copy that is larger than what they are paying for. Special care is taken to avoid making any major change that will modify the content of the ad. Advertisers are contacted via email to ask for permission make major modifications to an ad.

I also understand that web addresses and email addresses count as 3 words and that any order that is submitted that goes over in length will be held until we verify any up charge with you. Credit cards are charged in real time. If there is a rate discrepancy you will be contacted. Bookeeping will be emailing a copy of your order's invoice along with a request for a signature. Please sign and return via email to [email protected] or via fax at 618-351-7573. Advertisers that do not have a relationship with our company may be asked to submit a copy of their drivers license for proof of identity.

The correct billing address for the credit card that is being used for payment is required. If the address is not a match, the order will be held until we can obtain from you an address that does verify. This is for our protection as well as for the protection of the cardholder. All credit card orders are screened for fraudulent charges. ALL fraudulent charges are reported to the authorities.

I authorize American Classified Services, Inc. to send faxed correspondence on my account with them to the fax number I provide. This coule potentially be an invoice in the event that an email of the invoice is returned. Other faxes would be correspondece requested by the advertiser, such as affidavits, etc. American Classified Services, Inc. does not and will never share any of our clients' information with a third party.

American Classified Services, Inc. may ask for a sample of the product being advertised. This is generally only for the case of information for sale type of ads. Some newspapers require this information up front before and ad runs. If this information is needed, ACS, Inc. will contact you.

All orders should be submitted with a classification selected by the customer. If one is not selected, the advertising staff at American Classified Services will select the most appropriate classification. We will not be held responsible for a misclassification if this occurs.

Money order purchases will be held for two weeks for the payment to arrive. If no payment arrives within that time, the original order will be deleted. Ads being paid via money order will be held until payment arrives as all orders are pre-paid.

ACH/E-check purchases may be held until ACS, Inc. is able to verify that the payment has cleared the customer's bank account.  This may delay the order at least a week.  ACS, Inc. will notify the customer with the actual run week of the ads if this is an issue.  Though e-check/ACH payments often clear a customer's account the same day, it is often as many as 10 days later that the merchant is actually funded.  This is the source of the delay.

Orders being paid with a check may be held for two weeks until the check clears. We will notify you if this is the case. There is a $25 fee on all returned checks or ACH bank drafts that do not clear. Any past due accounts turned over for collections will be responsible to pay collection fees on top of the balance due to the account. All known contact information for past due customers will be forwarded to the collection agency contracted for the service.
