Advertising terms & content policy
Plain-language terms that apply to every campaign booked with NY Talk Radio.
1. Your booking
Your order confirmation is your insertion order. It lists your package, spot length, flight dates and price. One-time campaigns run for the period shown. Monthly subscriptions renew each month only if you opted in to auto-renew, until you cancel in your advertiser portal; cancellation takes effect at the end of the paid month, with no partial-month refunds.
2. Creative
Upload your audio in your advertiser portal (your key works while your campaign is active), or purchase production and we'll write and voice your spot after you approve the script. Uploads are automatically volume-matched; you can replace your ad anytime. You confirm you have the rights to everything in your creative, including voices, music and trademarks. Spots we produce for you are yours to use on NY Talk Radio, and you may ask for the file for use elsewhere.
3. Content policy
We may decline or remove any ad at our discretion. We do not accept ads that are false or misleading, sexually explicit, hateful or harassing, or that promote illegal products or services. Political and issue ads must clearly identify who paid for them. Every paid message on NY Talk Radio is presented as sponsored content.
4. Placement
Spots rotate through music programming and The Udemy Hour. No advertising or sponsorship mentions air inside or adjacent to Democracy Now! Exact airtimes are not guaranteed except for sponsorship placements.
5. Audience
We publish our listener numbers honestly, but we do not guarantee any specific audience size, response or results.
6. Make-goods & refunds
- Cancel before your start date for a full refund (one-time campaigns).
- Missed spots are re-aired within your flight or the following week.
- If the stream is down for more than 24 consecutive hours during your campaign and a make-good isn't possible, we refund the affected portion pro-rata.
- Once a campaign has started, it isn't otherwise refundable.
7. Reporting
You'll receive a proof-of-air report every Monday and at the end of your campaign, showing the date, time and program of each spot. The live log is always available in your portal.
