In addition, wherever possible, you will not attempt to mask the referring URL information (i.e. the page from where the click is originating).

CREATIVES
Affiliates may not alter any of the creatives made available through the Service. Affiliates are also requested not to hard-code banners into their sites, so updates made to those available through the Service may take immediate effect. If your site requires that banners are hard-coded, please contact Fikabröd via email to obtain permission before putting this in place. This will allow us to contact you whenever updates are necessary.
