2. Accounts and Guest Access

3. Usernames and Profiles

Users may be permitted to create or edit a public username, display name, profile image, and other profile information.

You may not use profile information to:

• Harass or threaten others.

We may restrict, remove, or require modification of profile information where reasonably necessary to protect users, enforce these Terms, protect intellectual-property rights, or maintain the integrity of the service.

4. User Content

“User Content” means material that you submit, upload, post, transmit, or otherwise provide through our services.

For ordinary User Content, you grant American Truck Drivers a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display, format, process, distribute, and otherwise use the content as reasonably necessary to operate, moderate, protect, and provide the service.

This general license does not replace any separate license, advertising agreement, release, or submission authorization applicable to specific content.

5. Media Submissions and Licensing

American Truck Drivers may allow users to submit photos, videos, and related material for possible editorial publication.

A media submission may require acceptance of a separate:

• Content Ownership and License Authorization.
• Release.
• Electronic authorization.
• Licensing agreement.
• Submission-specific terms.

If a specific submission authorization conflicts with these Terms concerning submitted media, the specific authorization controls to the extent of that conflict.

By submitting media, you represent that:

• You have the right to submit the material.
• Your submission does not knowingly violate another person’s rights.
• Ownership and permission information you provide is reasonably accurate.
• You have authority to accept the applicable authorization.

Submission does not guarantee publication.

American Truck Drivers may approve, reject, edit, decline to publish, remove, make private, or otherwise manage submitted material according to our editorial judgment, applicable agreements, policies, and law.

6. Public Credit for Submitted Content

When authorized user-submitted content is published, American Truck Drivers may provide public credit.

Credit may appear in a form such as:

Submitted by @username

Credit does not necessarily indicate employment, endorsement, partnership, or affiliation.

We may modify or remove credit when reasonably necessary for privacy, safety, editorial, legal, or technical reasons.

7. Comments, Community, and User Interactions

American Truck Drivers may allow users to:

• Comment.
• Reply.
• Like or dislike content.
• Report content.
• Publish Community posts.
• Interact with other users.
• Delete certain content they created.

Public comments, replies, Community posts, usernames, avatars, and reactions may be visible to other users.

You are responsible for content you choose to publish.

We may moderate, limit, remove, hide, or disable User Content or interactions where reasonably necessary to enforce these Terms, protect users, investigate abuse, comply with law, or maintain the service.

Certain third-party content may be displayed as source content and remain subject to the third-party platform’s own systems and policies.

We may investigate suspected abuse and take reasonable action, including restricting or terminating access.

9. Editorial Decisions, Accuracy, and Corrections

American Truck Drivers maintains editorial control over news and editorial material.

Submission of content does not guarantee publication.

We aim to provide timely and accurate information, but developing information may change after publication.

We may:

• Correct information.
• Update developing stories.
• Add context.
• Clarify prior reporting.
• Replace media.
• Remove content.
• Add correction or update notices.

Advertising or sponsorship does not give an advertiser control over American Truck Drivers’ independent editorial decisions.

10. Advertising and Sponsored Content

American Truck Drivers may display and sell advertising, sponsored content, promotional messages, sponsored links, and other commercial placements through its website, mobile application, social-media channels, and other properties operated or controlled by American Truck Drivers.

Advertising may include:

• Direct advertisements sold or managed by American Truck Drivers (“ATD / Sponsor Ads”).
• Website advertising.
• Mobile App advertising.
• Social-media advertising.
• Sponsored photos.
• Sponsored videos.
• Sponsored Stories or Reels.
• Sponsored Community posts.
• Sponsored links.
• Advertising packages.
• Google AdMob advertising.
• Other third-party advertising providers that may be enabled in the future.

Advertising may appear in:

• Home feeds.
• News feeds.
• Media feeds.
• News articles.
• App placements.
• Video experiences.
• Social-media pages or profiles operated by American Truck Drivers.
• Other eligible advertising inventory.

ATD / Sponsor Ads

American Truck Drivers may enter into direct advertising or sponsorship relationships with companies, organizations, brands, individuals, or other advertisers.

Advertisements may contain:

• Sponsor names.
• Logos.
• Images.
• Videos.
• Promotional text.
• Calls to action.
• Destination links.
• Other advertiser-supplied creative.

Sponsored material will be identified as advertising or sponsored content where reasonably appropriate.

The presence of an advertisement does not necessarily mean American Truck Drivers endorses the advertiser, product, service, claim, offer, or business practice.

Advertisers are responsible for the accuracy and legality of advertising materials they submit.

Advertising Orders and Customer Responsibility

Before completing an advertising purchase, the advertiser is responsible for reviewing:

• The selected platform.
• Channel.
• Placement.
• Advertising product.
• Campaign duration.
• Price.
• Creative material.
• Destination URL.
• Requested publishing information.
• Any other information included in the order.

The advertiser represents that it has all rights, licenses, permissions, and authorizations necessary for creative material submitted for advertising.

American Truck Drivers may request replacement or modified creative when material does not reasonably fit the selected placement, appears technically unsuitable, violates our policies, or raises legal or rights concerns.

Payments

Advertising payments may be processed by Stripe or another payment provider made available through the advertising checkout.

Payment must be successfully completed before a paid advertising order may proceed where prepayment is required.

A payment confirmation does not require American Truck Drivers to publish advertising material that violates applicable law, third-party rights, platform rules, or American Truck Drivers policies.

Final Orders, Cancellations, and Refunds

Once payment has been successfully completed and an advertising order has been approved, scheduled, activated, or published by American Truck Drivers, the order is considered final, non-cancelable, and non-refundable, except where a refund is required by applicable law or where American Truck Drivers is unable to materially provide the purchased advertising service.

An advertiser’s change of mind, change in marketing plans, failure to provide suitable creative, dissatisfaction with ordinary performance, or decision not to use the purchased advertising service does not automatically create a right to a refund.

Where American Truck Drivers requests a reasonable creative change, the advertiser may provide replacement creative through the available order or re-upload process. A request for creative changes does not itself cancel the advertising order.

Social-Media Advertising

For advertising published on American Truck Drivers-operated social-media properties, including sponsored photos, videos, Reels, Stories, Community posts, or similar placements, the advertising service is considered delivered once the purchased advertisement has been published according to the applicable order.

After publication, the advertiser may not cancel the completed placement or request a refund solely because of:

• Views.
• Reach.
• Impressions.
• Likes.
• Comments.
• Shares.
• Clicks.
• Engagement.
• Follower activity.
• Algorithmic performance.
• Other audience-performance results.

American Truck Drivers does not guarantee any minimum number of impressions, views, clicks, sales, conversions, followers, or other results unless a specific written agreement expressly provides such a guarantee.

Proof of Social-Media Publication

For completed social-media advertising orders, American Truck Drivers will make reasonable efforts to provide the advertiser with proof that the advertisement was published.

Proof may include:

• A direct link to the published post.
• A screenshot of the published advertisement.
• Publication date and time.
• Other order-completion information.

Screenshots and publication links may also be retained by American Truck Drivers as business records documenting delivery of the purchased advertising service.

Website Advertising Campaigns

Website advertising may be sold for a specific number of campaign days.

The advertiser selects or purchases the applicable campaign duration before checkout.

Once payment has been completed and the Website campaign has been approved and activated, the purchased campaign duration is final and may not be shortened, canceled, or refunded solely at the advertiser’s request.

The activation date may be determined automatically when the campaign is approved.

A Website advertisement may rotate with other eligible advertisements.

The same advertising period may contain multiple eligible campaigns.

A Website advertisement therefore may not appear on every page view or every refresh.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, Website advertising does not guarantee a specific number of:

• Impressions.
• Clicks.
• Click-through rate.
• Leads.
• Purchases.
• Conversions.
• Other performance results.

American Truck Drivers may maintain campaign impression and click statistics where supported by the advertising system.

Mobile App Advertising Campaigns

App advertising may also be sold for a specific campaign duration.

Once payment has been completed and an App campaign has been approved and activated, the purchased campaign period is final and non-cancelable except where applicable law requires otherwise or American Truck Drivers cannot materially provide the purchased service.

App advertising may rotate with other campaigns and may be managed manually or automatically depending on the placement.

The purchase of an App advertising campaign does not guarantee specific impressions, clicks, conversions, or other performance results unless expressly agreed in writing.

Advertising Packages

American Truck Drivers may offer packages combining multiple advertising products or placements.

A package may allow approved media to be reused across compatible placements without requiring the advertiser to upload the same creative multiple times.

Package pricing, duration, included placements, and other conditions are described at checkout or in the applicable package listing.

Once a paid advertising package has been approved or activated, the same final-order, cancellation, refund, and performance rules described in this Section 10 apply.

Advertising Rotation

American Truck Drivers may combine multiple campaigns within eligible advertising inventory.

Advertising may be selected or rotated based on factors such as:

• Campaign eligibility.
• Placement.
• Active dates.
• Priority.
• Rotation weight.
• Technical availability.
• User-experience considerations.
• Other operational criteria.

A campaign being active does not mean it will be displayed on every individual impression.

Advertising Frequency

American Truck Drivers may determine how frequently advertisements appear within feeds, articles, video experiences, or other content areas.

Advertising frequency may change to balance campaign requirements, available inventory, and user experience.

Advertising Links

Selecting an advertisement may open:

• An advertiser website.
• Registration page.
• Application.
• Store listing.
• Social-media page.
• Third-party service.
• Other destination selected by the advertiser.

American Truck Drivers does not control independent advertiser websites or services.

Transactions between a user and an advertiser are between those parties unless American Truck Drivers expressly states otherwise.

Advertising Measurement

American Truck Drivers may measure advertising activity including:

• Impressions.
• Clicks.
• Placement.
• Campaign identifiers.
• Dates.
• Aggregate campaign performance.

These measurements may be used to:

• Operate campaigns.
• Manage advertiser relationships.
• Provide campaign reporting.
• Measure performance.
• Prevent fraud.
• Improve the advertising system.
• Support business operations.

Invalid Advertising Activity

Users and advertisers may not intentionally manipulate advertising statistics.

Prohibited activity may include:

• Artificial repeated clicking.
• Clicking advertisements solely to increase statistics.
• Bots.
• Scripts.
• Automated impressions.
• Automated clicks.
• Coordinated fraudulent engagement.
• Encouraging others to generate invalid activity.

American Truck Drivers may disregard suspected invalid activity or restrict access where appropriate.

Failure by American Truck Drivers to Provide the Purchased Service

If American Truck Drivers is unable to materially provide a purchased advertising service due to an issue within our control, we may, as appropriate and subject to applicable law:

• Extend the campaign.
• Provide replacement placement.
• Provide advertising credit.
• Reschedule the service.
• Issue a partial or full refund.

The appropriate remedy will depend on the circumstances and the portion of the purchased service already delivered.

12. Intellectual Property

Except for User Content and third-party material, American Truck Drivers trademarks, logos, websites, mobile applications, original articles, designs, graphics, software, interfaces, and other original materials are owned by or licensed to American Truck Drivers Inc. and may be protected by intellectual-property laws.

You may not reproduce, republish, sell, distribute, modify, or commercially exploit protected American Truck Drivers material except as permitted by law or expressly authorized by us.

The American Truck Drivers name and branding may not be used in a way that falsely suggests sponsorship, endorsement, affiliation, or authorization.

Third-party trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.

13. Account Suspension and Termination

• Security.
• Suspected fraud.
• Abuse.

Termination does not automatically invalidate rights, licenses, obligations, financial records, advertising records, or other information that lawfully survives termination.

14. Account Deletion

Users may request permanent deletion of their American Truck Drivers account and associated personal information.

Where available, account deletion may be initiated through the mobile application or our public Account Deletion page.

Deleting an American Truck Drivers account does not automatically delete an external Google, Facebook, Apple, or other third-party account.

• Financial records.
• Advertising accounting.
• Campaign records.
