In such event, you will comply with the standards, protocols and restrictions that we impose, and we can revoke any prior permissions at any time. We can remove references to your Restaurant from the Website with or without notice to you if you are not then in current compliance with the Franchise Agreement. We may use part of the Advertising Fee monies to pay or reimburse the costs associated with the development, maintenance and update of profiles on Social Media. You will indemnify us if we incur losses and expenses from any authorized or unauthorized use of Social Media. (Franchise Agreement, Section 11(c)).
