These Terms are incorporated into and apply alongside any such agreement. Nothing in these Terms limits or supersedes the specific terms of a written advertising agreement, and nothing in a written advertising agreement limits or supersedes the rights reserved to Company in these Terms, including but not limited to the publisher’s discretion rights set forth in Section 4.

9. Directory Listings

Our Sites may include community business directory listings. Directory listings are provided as a convenience to the community and do not constitute an endorsement of any listed business by Community Select Media LLC.
