Each Engagement shall have the same identification number as the original Offer that led to the Engagement and shall be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. However, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the specific Engagement and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the Engagement shall govern.
1.3. At any time, Merchant may with or without notice (a) change, suspend or discontinue any aspect of an Offer or an Engagement or (b) remove, alter, or modify any graphic, button, text link, ad copy, creative or other content or banner ad submitted by Merchant or provided by Merchant directly to Publisher (the Merchant Content) for an Offer or an Engagement or otherwise.
