10.13.

If it is required by the Relevant Laws and Regulations, the Provider shall obtain, and shall procure that the Affiliates obtain express/affirmative consent or any other type of consent (as may be required by the Relevant Laws and Regulations) from recipients of that particular jurisdiction/country before initiating any Campaign hereunder.
