Blistering Media Inc. — Website Terms of Use

Effective Date: 2026-11-07T05:43
Last Updated: 2026-11-07T05:43

These website terms and conditions of use (“Terms”) are a legal agreement between Blistering Media Inc., including when doing business under the name Fixion Media (the “Company,” “us,” “we” or “our”), and you (“you” or “your”). These Terms govern your access to and use of the websites and related features, tools, materials and services described below.

These Terms apply to https://www.blistering.com, https://www.blistering.ai, https://www.blistering.net, https://www.blistering.io and https://www.fixionmedia.com, and to other websites, applications, interfaces or services operated by us that expressly link to these Terms (collectively, the “Websites”). References to the “Services” include functions and services offered through or in connection with the Websites, as applicable.

By accessing or using a Website or Service, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms. Our Privacy Policy describes how we handle personal information; it should be read alongside these Terms. Any consent required for the collection, use or disclosure of personal information will be obtained as required by applicable law and is not created merely by agreeing to these Terms.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, YOU MUST NOT ACCESS OR USE THE WEBSITES OR SERVICES.

If you create an account, place an order, enter into a paid transaction or otherwise enter into a contract through a Service, you affirm that you have reached the age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence and are fully able and competent to enter into and comply with the applicable terms, conditions, obligations, affirmations, representations and warranties, or that you are otherwise legally authorized to do so. If you access a Website or Service on behalf of a corporation or other organization, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to act on its behalf and, where applicable, bind it to these Terms.

The Websites are not directed to children under 14. Other age and consent requirements may apply to particular Services.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms from time to time in our sole discretion, subject to applicable law and any separate agreement with you. When we do, we will revise the Last Updated date at the top of this page. Unless otherwise stated or required by law, changes take effect when posted. You agree to periodically review these Terms to be aware of modifications. Continued use of the Websites or Services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms to the extent permitted by law. If you do not agree, you must stop using the affected Websites or Services.

Material changes to separately contracted, paid Services remain subject to any applicable customer agreement and legal requirements.

We hereby grant you permission to access and use the Websites as set forth in these Terms, provided that: (a) you will not copy or distribute any part of a Website in any medium without our prior written authorization or as otherwise permitted by these Terms or law; (b) you will not alter or modify any part of a Website other than as may be reasonably necessary to use it for its intended purpose; and (c) you will otherwise comply with these Terms.

You may use the Websites for ordinary informational purposes and for legitimate business purposes expressly supported by a Service, including inquiries, publisher or advertiser applications, quotation requests, advertising bookings, authorized customer accounts, licensed software and other agreed transactions. Your right to use a paid or restricted Service may also depend on a separate order, subscription, licence or services agreement.

In addition to the other terms set out in these Terms, you agree that you will not:

(a) collect or harvest personal information from the Websites without authorization or another lawful basis;

(b) distribute unsolicited advertisements through the Websites or solicit users for unauthorized commercial purposes;

(c) upload or transmit communications or content of any type that may infringe or violate the rights of any party;

(d) use the Websites for any purpose in violation of local, provincial, national or international laws or solicit others to perform or participate in unlawful acts;

(e) post or transmit material that is unlawful, discriminatory, obscene, defamatory, threatening, harassing, abusive, slanderous, hateful or otherwise unlawfully harmful to any person or entity;

(f) submit false or misleading information;

(g) disable, “hack,” bypass or otherwise interfere with the proper functioning, security features or access restrictions of the Websites or Services;

(h) introduce malicious code, probe for vulnerabilities without authorization, interfere with other users or impose an unreasonable burden on our infrastructure; or

(i) access private systems, accounts or data without authorization, or use automated access contrary to published technical restrictions, rate limits or the terms of an applicable interface.

Publicly available feeds, structured data and APIs may be accessed through interfaces that we intentionally make available for that purpose, subject to their published conditions, technical controls, attribution requirements, if any, and applicable law. Making information publicly readable does not automatically grant ownership or unlimited republication rights in that information.

We reserve the right, to the extent permitted by law and any applicable agreement, to suspend, limit or terminate access to the Websites or Services for violating these Terms or where reasonably necessary to protect our systems, customers or others.

Although we make reasonable efforts to update information on our Websites, we make no representations, warranties or guarantees, whether express or implied, that their informational content is accurate, complete or up to date. Your use of the Websites is at your own risk and, except as required by law or expressly provided in an applicable agreement, neither the Company nor its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, nor their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, service providers, contractors, licensors, licensees, suppliers or successors has responsibility or liability for reliance on informational content.

Information concerning technology, artificial intelligence, advertising, telecommunications, digital assets or other business opportunities is provided for general information and does not constitute legal, financial, investment or other professional advice. Any estimates, demonstrations, generated materials, forecasts or descriptions of future capabilities should not be treated as guarantees. You remain responsible for appropriate independent review and decisions based on such information.

The Websites are not intended for use in any jurisdiction where their use is prohibited by applicable law. We make no representation that every Website, Service, product or feature is offered, available or appropriate in every location. If you access a Website from outside Canada, you do so at your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws applicable to you. Nothing in this provision limits rights that cannot lawfully be excluded in your jurisdiction.

If you enable, access or use third-party services, features, payment processors, integrations or other resources made available through or linked from a Website, your use of those third-party services may be governed by the terms and conditions of their providers. Except where expressly stated, we do not endorse or make representations as to such services, including their content, data-handling practices or your interactions with their providers. To the maximum extent permitted by law and subject to any separate written agreement, the Company is not liable for loss or damage caused by independent third-party services or by your reliance on their separate policies and practices. This section does not limit obligations that we ourselves owe under applicable law.

Although the Websites may link to other websites, including social media websites, we are not, directly or indirectly, implying approval, association, sponsorship, endorsement or affiliation with any linked website unless specifically stated. We are not responsible for examining or evaluating, and we do not warrant the offerings of, third-party businesses or individuals or the content of their websites. We do not assume responsibility or liability for the actions, products, services or content of independent third parties to the extent permitted by law. You should carefully review the conditions of use, privacy policies and other legal documents of any third-party website you access. Your linking to off-site websites is at your own risk.

You understand and agree that the Websites and their contents, features and functionality, including, but not limited to, information, software, code, data, text, displays, graphics, photographs, images, video, audio, music, design, presentation, layout, selection and arrangement, are owned by the Company, its licensors or other providers of such materials and are protected by intellectual property laws, including copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret and other proprietary rights.

Our names, logos, related product and service names, designs and slogans are trademarks of the Company or its affiliates or licensors, where applicable. All other trademarks, service marks, company names or logos used or referenced on the Websites are the property of their respective owners.

Subject to and conditioned on compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable licence to access and make use of the Websites and their content for their intended purposes. You are authorized to view, download and print portions of the Websites for personal or your organization's internal use, or as we otherwise permit, provided you do not change or remove copyright, trademark or proprietary notices. Your computer and browser may temporarily store or cache copies of materials being accessed and viewed. Any other use of materials, including unauthorized reproduction, modification, distribution, republication, transmission, retransmission or public showing, without prior written permission or a separate legal entitlement, is prohibited.

Any licence granted by us under these Terms may terminate immediately and without notice if you fail to comply with these Terms, subject to applicable law. You acquire no right, title or interest in the Websites or Company-owned content except as expressly granted. All rights not expressly granted are reserved. Unauthorized use may constitute a breach of these Terms and an infringement or violation of intellectual property rights or applicable law.

Nothing in this section transfers ownership of a customer's own content or materials, or overrides rights expressly granted under a separate agreement or through an authorized public feed or API.

You may submit content, including images, advertising creative, information, comments, questions, text, files or instructions (collectively, “User Content”) through forms, accounts, applications or other supported features of the Services. You retain whatever rights you lawfully hold in your User Content. You grant the Company and its affiliates, service providers, contractors and authorized distribution partners a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence, with the right to grant sublicences as reasonably required, to receive, store, reproduce, process, adapt, transmit, display and otherwise use User Content to provide, operate, secure, support and fulfil the Service or transaction for which you submitted it, and to comply with applicable legal obligations. This licence continues for the period reasonably needed to accomplish those purposes, including lawful retention, audit, dispute resolution and record-keeping. It does not give us a general right to commercially repurpose confidential customer materials for unrelated uses.

Where User Content is expressly submitted or authorized for publication or advertising distribution, the licence includes the uses and distribution necessary for the agreed publication or campaign, on the relevant websites, advertising placements, media channels and associated reporting systems. Specific licence scope and duration may also be set out in an insertion order, campaign agreement or other applicable terms. Feedback, suggestions or ideas provided about our products or Services may be used by us without compensation or obligation, provided we handle any personal information in accordance with the Privacy Policy.

If you submit material to an AI-assisted Service, it may be processed by relevant technology providers for the purpose of performing the requested Service, subject to the applicable privacy notices and service agreements. Any materially different use of personal information, including use for model training, is addressed in the Privacy Policy and applicable product-specific terms. Nothing in these Terms guarantees that AI-generated output is unique, accurate, non-infringing or suitable for a particular purpose, and ownership or usage rights in outputs may depend on applicable law and any separate agreement.

By submitting User Content, you declare and warrant that (a) you have the rights and authority needed to submit the content and grant the licence above, including any permissions required from rights holders and individuals depicted or identified; and (b) your User Content will not: (i) infringe intellectual property, publicity, personality or privacy rights; (ii) violate any law or regulation; (iii) be defamatory, libellous, unlawfully threatening or harassing; (iv) contain viruses, Trojan horses, worms, malicious routines or other harmful code intended to damage, interfere with, intercept or expropriate systems or information; or (v) disclose confidential information belonging to a third party without authorization.

We have the right, subject to applicable law and any separate agreement, to remove or refuse to post User Content on a Website for any or no reason, in our discretion. We are not required to publish submitted materials merely because they were received.

Certain Services may permit users to request a quote, arrange advertising placements, purchase products or services, submit materials, manage bookings or access client workspaces. Information displayed through a Website, including descriptions, rates, availability, inventory indicators and estimates, may change and is not necessarily a binding offer. A booking, order, payment, reservation or other commercial commitment becomes binding only as provided by the specific terms and acceptance process applicable to that transaction.

Separate customer agreements, insertion orders, quotations accepted under stated terms, subscriptions, software licences, advertising booking terms or other written arrangements may apply to a transaction or Service. If a provision of those agreements expressly conflicts with these general Website Terms, the specific agreement controls with respect to the subject matter it governs. These Terms continue to apply to general Website access and matters not covered by that agreement.

You agree to provide accurate account and billing details, maintain the confidentiality of any authentication credentials or access links, and notify us promptly if you become aware of unauthorized account access. You are responsible for activities carried out through your account to the extent permitted by applicable law. We may use third-party payment providers as described in the Privacy Policy. Refunds, cancellations, deposits, balances, delivery obligations, campaign adjustments or service credits, if applicable, are governed by the terms of the particular transaction and any mandatory legal requirements; these general Terms do not establish a universal cancellation or refund entitlement.

We handle personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable privacy law. The Policy explains the collection, use, disclosure, retention, storage and protection of personal information and how to contact our Privacy Officer. Any consent to particular processing activities will be obtained where legally required; using a Website does not alone constitute consent to optional marketing or tracking.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITES. YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITES, OR ANY MATERIAL, PRODUCT OR SERVICE AVAILABLE THROUGH THEM, IS AT YOUR OWN RISK, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN A SEPARATE WRITTEN AGREEMENT OR REQUIRED BY LAW. THE COMPANY AND ITS PARENT, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE WEBSITES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ACCURATE, SECURE, PROBLEM-FREE OR ERROR-FREE; NOR DO THEY MAKE ANY WARRANTY AS TO THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM USE OF THE WEBSITES OR THAT THE SERVERS FROM WHICH THE WEBSITES ARE OPERATED ARE OR WILL BE FREE FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE CONTENT AND FUNCTION OF THE WEBSITES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE.

EXCEPT WHERE SUCH EXCLUSIONS ARE PROHIBITED BY LAW OR A SEPARATE WRITTEN AGREEMENT EXPRESSLY PROVIDES OTHERWISE, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL THE COMPANY NOR ITS PARENT, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, LICENSEES, SUPPLIERS OR SUCCESSORS BE LIABLE, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, FOR NEGLIGENCE, GROSS NEGLIGENCE, NEGLIGENT MISREPRESENTATION, FUNDAMENTAL BREACH, OR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS; YOUR USE OF, INABILITY TO USE OR RELIANCE ON THE WEBSITES; LINKED WEBSITES; TRANSACTIONS CONDUCTED IN CONNECTION WITH THE WEBSITES; OR CONTENT, MATERIALS, POSTINGS OR INFORMATION ON THE WEBSITES; REGARDLESS OF (A) WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE, (B) WHETHER OR NOT THE COMPANY WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND (C) THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY (CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY AND ITS PARENT, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, LICENSEES, SUPPLIERS OR SUCCESSORS RELATING TO GENERAL ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE WEBSITES WILL BE LIMITED TO ONE HUNDRED CANADIAN DOLLARS (CAD $100.00). WHERE A SEPARATE WRITTEN AGREEMENT EXPRESSLY GOVERNS LIABILITY FOR A PAID SERVICE OR TRANSACTION, THAT AGREEMENT CONTROLS TO THE EXTENT OF ANY CONFLICT. THESE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS ALSO APPLY IF THIS REMEDY DOES NOT FULLY COMPENSATE YOU FOR LOSSES OR FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, SUBJECT ALWAYS TO APPLICABLE LAW.

To the maximum extent permissible by law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, service providers, contractors, licensors, successors and assigns from and against claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses or fees, including reasonable legal fees and costs, arising out of or relating to your breach of these Terms or your unlawful or unauthorized use or misuse of the Websites, including third-party sites, your User Content and any use other than as expressly authorized in these Terms. This section is subject to any specific indemnity allocation in an applicable separate written agreement and to non-waivable legal protections.

The formation, interpretation and performance of these Terms and any disputes arising out of these Terms shall be governed by the substantive and procedural laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to rules on conflicts or choice of law. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue for actions related to the subject matter hereof shall be the courts located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and you hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts. This provision does not deprive individuals of mandatory protections that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Should any provision or part of any provision of these Terms be deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision, or the affected portion, shall be severed and the remaining provisions shall remain intact with the necessary amendments.

No waiver of any term of these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of that term or any other term, and the failure by us to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.

These Terms govern general use of the Websites. Additional published rules may apply to a particular feed, API, competition, feature or Service if clearly identified. If you are a business customer or partner with a signed agreement or accepted order, that agreement takes precedence over these Terms for the specific transaction or relationship it covers to the extent described in Section 10. No provision of these Terms grants rights in third-party intellectual property or replaces mandatory rights under applicable law.
