Program

Once Affiliate becomes a member of the Program, Affiliate can earn unlimited commissions by placing pre-qualified, high-converting advertisement campaigns and links on Affiliate’s website(s), thereby driving traffic to Company’s website(s) that converts into a sale of a qualifying Product. The process of inserting Company’s high-performing advertisements and links on Affiliate’s website(s) may be made easier for Affiliate by copying and pasting the advertisements and links Company makes available. After a prospective purchaser is referred to a Company website or content from a link contained on Affiliate’s website(s), if the prospective purchaser completes a full purchase within ninety (90) days thereof, Affiliate is entitled to receive a commission payment.

Affiliate will only earn a commission for purchases completed through a Company Affiliate’s affiliate link. Affiliate will not earn a commission on any subsequent purchases made by the same purchaser that accesses any other Company website or content from a non-Affiliate’s affiliate link (i.e., sale is not through Affiliate’s affiliate link). Should the prospective purchaser click on a non-Affiliate’s affiliate link that is not controlled by Affiliate or return to any other Company website or content via another source-coded advertising link during the initial ninety (90) days, Affiliate’s affiliate link will be overwritten, and Affiliate will not receive a commission should that prospective purchaser complete a purchase of one of a Company Product.

Company does not pay a commission for the purchase of Affiliate’s own personal accounts or accounts purchased by Affiliate’s employees, agents, representatives, or contractors. Under most circumstances, Company does not pay a commission for purchases taken or completed over the telephone or live chat even if the prospective purchaser was referred to Company via Affiliate’s website(s). Any referrals provided prior to Affiliate’s participation in the Program are not entitled to a commission.

Advertising Restrictions

By joining the Program, Affiliate agrees to the following Company policies or restrictions, and Affiliate acknowledges and agrees that Affiliate’s website(s) or publishing location shall not (and shall not enable others to):

It is important to note that the final calculation of commissions will be conducted at the end of each month. The definitive amount payable to the Affiliate will be determined only after a thorough verification of the actual number of new paid subscribers and following the deduction of any orders identified as potentially fraudulent or indicative of abusive activity.

FTC Endorsement Compliance.

Company aims to care for its customers in a fair manner and to fully abide by all rules, regulations, and laws, including the United States Federal Trade Commission’s (“FTC”) regulations, that relate to advertising. At the same time, Company necessitates that its affiliates must also do so.

The FTC regulations include but are not limited to, 16 C.F.R. Part 255: Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising, which necessitates, among other criteria, that material connections between advertisers and endorsers be disclosed. Therefore, directories, review/rating websites, blogs, and other websites, email, or collateral that purports to provide an endorsement or assessment of an advertiser (in this case Company) must clearly state that the advertiser is given financial or in-kind compensation.

When Affiliate posts any material about Company’s products or services, Affiliate must disclose its “material connection” with Company, including the fact that Affiliate was given or is entitled to consideration from Company. The disclosure should be clear and prominent and made in close proximity to any statements that Affiliate makes about Company or Company’s products or service. Company may monitor Affiliate’s posts and notify Affiliate of any content that it deems, in its sole discretion, is outside of the FTC guidelines that needs immediate correction, removal, or explanation. Should an inappropriate post appear, Company may withhold payment, request reimbursement of already paid fees, and/or terminate its relationship with Affiliate.

Affiliate can obtain further information and suggestions on complying with the FTC guidelines via the links below. Affiliate is advised to search for and acquire Affiliate’s own legal advice on how the FTC rules may apply to Affiliate under this Affiliate ToS.

Company reserves the right to withhold commission fees and cancel the affiliate relationship with Affiliate should Company find, in its sole discretion, that Affiliate is not abiding by the previously mentioned guide or FTC regulations/guides Company view as applicable.

The FTC offers a variety of resources to help make it easier for Affiliate to comply with the guidelines, including but not limited to:

  • Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.
  • The FTC’s Revised Endorsement Guides: What People are Asking.
  • Dot Com Disclosures: Information About Online Advertising.
