Customers who buy products through the Affiliate Program are the Company’s customers. All of the Company’s standard policies and operating procedures will apply to these customers. We may change our policies and operating procedures at any time. Product prices and availability may vary from time to time.
21. ORDER PROCESSING
- Only items that were purchased by customers who use the Program Affiliate Link from your website to our Website are considered ‘direct sales’. Direct sales placed through the Program Affiliate Link on your website is reduced by items that are not shipped, cancelled by customers, returned, charged back or refunded at a later date.
- We reserve the right to exclude items ordered by you (using the Program Affiliate Link which would otherwise qualify for direct sales) and to not pay Commissions for them, if we deem it necessary, in our sole discretion, to prevent abuse of the Program, or to reject orders that do not comply with any requirements that we periodically may establish.
- We will be responsible for processing orders and will handle all customer service issues. We will track sales by customers who purchase products by using the Program Affiliate Link from your website to our Website. A statement of activity is available to you through your Affiliate interface.
22. PAYMENT
You will be paid monthly once your account reaches the minimum of fifty dollars ($50) through PayPal to the email address on file. As with all online businesses, we encounter a certain amount of fraudulent disputes and chargebacks that must clear a 120 day waiting period for the credit card companies to resolve. For this reason, there will be a one-hundred and twenty (120) day waiting window from the time a sale is made until a Commission becomes eligible for payout.
Additionally, because we offer a recurring subscription product, we will offer a Commission for sales made during the first six (6) months of a customer’s experience. After that period, no additional Commission will be earned or payable.
You will create a password so that you may enter your secure affiliate account interface. From the Website you will be able to receive your reports that will describe our calculation of the commissions due to you.
23. TRANSACTION LOCK DATES; CHARGEBACKS
- All sales will remain in a ‘sales pending period’ and will not lock until the terms set forth within the locking period parameters of our Affiliate Program can be verified. All locked payments will be processed by us after the lock date. Due to the chargebacks mentioned above, the lock period is 120 days.
- All advanced but unearned Commission shall be subject to charge-back or recoupment by the Company if the Company fails for any reason to receive payment in full on any revenue for sales of Company products or services attributable to an customer referred by Affiliate. Reasons for charge-back may include but are not limited to the customer’s failure to pay, credit memos, refunds or allowances by the Company, cancellation of a sales contract, retroactive reduction of the amount paid by the customer, initiation of legal action to collect money owed under a sales contract, credit card or other chargebacks, or other default. Amounts subject to chargeback will not be eligible for Commissions and we reserve the right to setoff and deduct any Commission subject to chargebacks against Commissions otherwise payable to you.
24. REVERSAL & COMMUNICATION POLICY
We take pride in our low reversal rate, which we attribute to open communication with our Affiliates. However, we reserve the right to reverse orders due to order cancellations, duplicate tracking, returns, disputed charges, and program violations as outlined in these Terms. Additionally, if we ask you for clarification or more information on any orders or clicks that we suspect may be in violation of these Terms, we expect that you will respond in a timely and honest manner. Below are violations of our communications policy.
- You are not forthcoming, intentionally vague, and/or are found to be lying or dishonest.
- You are not responsive within a reasonable time period after the Company attempts to contact you using the information listed in your network profile.
- You cannot substantiate or validate the source of your traffic to our program with clear and demonstrable proof.
If any of the above apply, then we reserve the absolute right to reverse orders, set your commission to 0% or suspend you from the Affiliate Program for the period or orders in question or terminate you from the Affiliate Program altogether. We know that many violations are a result of automated processes; however, it is incumbent upon each Affiliate to ensure that it has the appropriate checks and balances in place to pro-actively address these issues and adhere to our Affiliate Program rules.
25. AFFILIATE TRACKING SOFTWARE
While we have made efforts to source third party affiliate software that is reliably built to track every conversion, we cannot guarantee the accuracy or reliability of this software, nor guarantee that every conversion will be tracked. If you have proof of an issue with conversion tracking, please contact us so we can resolve the issue.
You are responsible for verifying successful conversions in your dashboard. If we are made aware of a documented tracking bug with the third-party affiliate software, we will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide a fair resolution to our partners, but we are not responsible for bugs in this software, nor responsible for inaccurate payouts caused by software bugs, hacking, or other means.
Additionally, we reserve the right to change, modify, fix, adjust, delete, or remove conversions when we suspect conversion tracking is not functioning properly due to a software bug, intentional abuse, hacking, or other means. This adjustment can happen at any time, even after the 120-day lock period. We will attempt to contact Affiliates if we have to make a correction, but are not liable or responsible for funds to be dispersed in the event of a correction of conversion tracking.
