Advertising Terms

For program sponsorships. Last updated 14 September 2026.

These terms apply to sponsored placements bought from Entry Group LLC, which operates GEO CAREERS ("we"), by an institution or training provider ("you"). If your institution requires its own purchasing terms, those govern where they conflict with these.

1. What you buy

A run is four consecutive calendar months of the placements described on the sponsorship page and in your booking confirmation: a labelled card on selected job searches, a sponsor slot on the named guides, and features in the weekly newsletter. We sell placements. We do not guarantee any number of impressions, clicks, inquiries, applications or enrollments. Any figures we give you in advance are estimates based on past traffic.

2. Price and payment

The fee is the flat amount per run shown when you book, and is payable in advance by card, or by bank transfer against an invoice. Invoices issued against a purchase order are due within 30 days unless your purchase order states other terms. The fee is never contingent on, or calculated from, enrollments or any other admissions outcome.

3. Holds and confirmation

Reserving a slot holds it for 14 days. The booking is confirmed when we receive payment, a purchase order or a written commitment. Holds that lapse are released.

4. Ad copy

You supply a headline, a short description, button text and a landing page. Copy must be accurate, must describe a real program you offer, and must not make claims about job placement or salaries that you cannot substantiate. We review all copy before it runs and may ask for changes or decline copy that doesn't meet these terms. We may make minor formatting edits to fit a placement.

5. Labelling and editorial independence

Every placement is clearly labelled "Sponsored". Sponsorship does not buy editorial coverage, rankings or recommendations, and sponsors have no say over our editorial content.

6. Reporting and data

We send a report each month showing impressions and clicks by placement. Links to your landing page carry UTM parameters so you can see visits in your own analytics. We never provide personal information about our readers to sponsors.

7. Placements that don't run

If a placement you bought fails to run, we will reschedule it at no charge and extend your run if needed. Examples are a newsletter issue that isn't sent, or the site being unavailable for an extended period. This is the only remedy for non-delivery. It does not apply to how a placement performs.

8. Cancellation and refunds

You may cancel for a full refund at any time before your run starts. Once a run has started, fees are non-refundable. If we end a run early for reasons other than a breach of these terms, we will refund the unused portion pro rata.

9. Who we accept

We accept accredited institutions and established training providers with programs relevant to GIS and geospatial careers, at our discretion.

10. General

Each party is responsible for its own content: you for your ad copy and landing page, we for the site and newsletter. Neither party is liable to the other for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability for a run is limited to the fee paid for it. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York unless your institution's purchasing terms require otherwise.
