1. Background and Use of the Site.

The Site allows Company to post offers of advertising programs sponsored by Company or its affiliates on the system (‘Program(s)’). The Programs will specify the amount and terms under which You will receive payment (‘Bounty’) when the Program’s requirements are fulfilled.

The definition of the Event associated with a Program is set forth in the Program’s specifications, and such definition shall govern this Agreement. If You accept a Program, You agree to place that Program’s advertising creative on Your media properties, such as Your website, affiliated websites or email distribution lists (‘Media’), in accordance with the terms of the accepted Program. Company may change a Program at any time unless otherwise specified upon reasonable notice to You. Similarly, You may drop previously accepted Programs at any time unless otherwise specified. Company is responsible for displaying and administrating all active Programs and tracking the payments owed. Company shall compile, calculate and electronically deliver data required to determine Your billing and compensation. Company’s figures and calculations shall be final and binding. Any questions regarding the data provided by Company need to be submitted in writing within 60 days of receipt, otherwise the information will be deemed accurate and accepted as such by You.

2. License.

All websites, newsletters, companies, or individuals need official approval from Company before they can become an Affiliate Partner (‘Affiliate’). Only websites, affiliated websites and email distribution lists that have been reviewed and approved are permitted to use the Site. Company reserves the right to withhold or refuse approval for any reason, whatsoever.

3. Fraud.

Company actively monitors traffic for Fraud. If we detect fraud, your account will be made inactive pending further investigation.

Company reserves sole judgment in determining fraud, and you agree to this clause.

It is the OBLIGATION of the Affiliate to prove to Company that they are NOT committing fraud. Company will hold your payment in ‘Pending Status’ until you have satisfactorily provided evidence that you are not defrauding the system. We flag accounts that:

Have click-through rates that are much higher than industry averages and where solid justification is not evident.
Have ONLY click programs generating clicks with no indication by site traffic that it can sustain the clicks reported.
Have shown fraudulent leads as determined by our clients.
Use fake redirects, automated software, and/or fraud to generate clicks or leads from our programs.

Every Affiliate account must have a unique, valid taxpayer identification number (TIN) or valid Social Security number. All payments are based on actual figures as defined, accounted and audited by Merchant. Company will facilitate payment by disbursing the earned portion of lump sum aggregate payments to individual Affiliates upon receipt of payment from Merchant.’

In the event Company fails to receive payment due from Merchant it shall have no payment obligation to Affiliate. If Merchant does not pay on time, Company will notify Affiliate and offer its best efforts in matters related to collections. Company will not pay for any Events that occur before a Program is initiated, or after a Program terminates. Invoices submitted to Company and payments made to You shall be based on the Events and corresponding Bounties as reported by Company. Company will not be responsible to compensate You for Events that are not recorded due to Your error.
