Affiliate Agreement
The following details our Affiliate Agreement. We’ve tried to keep it simple
but there are a few necessary legal issues that we’re obligated to detail.
Terms of the agreement:
This Agreement contains the terms and conditions that apply to a
participant in our affiliate program (the "Affiliate program"). As used in this
agreement, "we"/"our/"us", means "our company" or “One World Projects” and
"you"/"your" means the "affiliate/applicant", "site" refers to a World Wide Web
site.
We look forward to building an affiliate relationship with you and carefully
evaluate each affiliate to ensure there is a strong fit between our companies.
To begin the enrollment process, you will submit a complete affiliate
application form. We will evaluate your application in good faith within a few
days and will notify you of your acceptance or rejection, as soon as possible.
For all accepted affiliates we grant you a non-exclusive, revocable right to use
our present banners and other such images for which we grant express
permission, for the purpose of identifying your site as an Affiliate program
participant and linking to our site. You may not modify the banners or any of
our images in any way without our express permission.
We reserve all of our rights to our trade names and trademarks and all other
intellectual property rights.
We may reject your application if we determine, in our sole discretion, that
your site is unsuitable for the Affiliate program.
ORDER PROCESSING
We will be solely responsible for processing every order for our products.
Customers will use our secure online ordering process. Order forms, payment
processing, shipping, cancellations, returns, and related customer service are
our responsibility. All of our rules, operating procedures and policies
regarding customer orders and accounts will apply to orders we receive through
special links on your site. We reserve the right to reject any order that does
not comply with our rules, operating procedures and policies. Every customer
who buys a product through this Affiliate program is deemed to be a customer of
ours. You do not have the authority to make or accept any offer on our behalf.
All our policies regarding customer orders, including product availability,
pricing, and problem resolution, will apply to these customers. We are not
responsible for any representations made by you which contradict our policies.
TRACKING OF SALES
We will be solely responsible for tracking sales we make to customers who
follow links from your website. We use Interneka Affiliate Software. Statements
of your sales activity will be available to you in "real-time" with a special
URL that we assign to you, accessible 24 hours per day and 7 days per week. You
may access these stats via a password and username we assign. Only two entities
may access your stats and affiliate information--you and us.
AFFILIATE LINKS
We will provide you with a unique identifying URL for you to link to.
Each sale or referral that is generated from this URL will be attributed to
you. You will have access to your own private section to check your stats by
logging into our affiliate program site at any time. Your links to the unique
URL can be text links or banner links, or a combination of the two, at your
sole discretion. If you choose banner links, you must use our banners. We will
provide you with a URL of all our banners, from which you can freely choose.
You may add as many links to our website, or remove such links, at anytime and
without prior approval from us. We will provide you with instructions on how to
properly format the links. You are responsible for ensuring the links are
formatted correctly. This will ensure accurate tracking of sales for credit to
your account. Every effort will be made to ensure that our site is functional
and available for customers referred to our site through your "affiliate link".
We have NO responsibilities with regard to your site. We will have no liability
for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages or any loss of
revenue or profits arising under or with respect to this agreement or the
Affiliate program. In addition, our aggregate liability arising under or with
respect to this agreement or the Affiliate program shall in no event exceed
total referral fees paid or payable to the affiliate under this agreement.
TERM OF THE AGREEMENT
The term of this agreement will begin upon our acceptance of your affiliate
program application and your placement of our banner or textual link on your
site and will end when terminated by either party. Either you or we may
terminate this agreement at any time, by giving the other party written notice
of termination. This will be in the form of email and/or US postal mail. You
can only earn referral fees on sales occurring during the term. We will never
withhold any payment due. Upon termination of this agreement, the former
affiliate must remove all affiliate links and graphics from its web site, and
refrain from publishing same in any manner whatsoever.
INCOME TAX LIABILITY
You must understand and agree that you are acting as an independent
contractor and as such will be responsible for your own Income Taxes and any
other tax liabilities that affect the sales of our products in your state. By
law, any commissions in excess of five hundred ninety nine ($599) dollars must
be reported by us on a Federal Tax form (that's why we ask for your Tax ID or
SSN- social security number). You will be sent this form and are required to
sign and return to us before any 'further payment' to you can or will be made.
SPAM (unsolicited email)
We will not tolerate the sending of unsolicited bulk email. Any online
or offline mailing, advertising or publicity that refers to us must first get
our approval. Any affiliate who, in our opinion, breaches this ruling will have
their Affiliate status cancelled immediately and any and all outstanding
commissions WILL BE FORFEITED.
Stay Safe, Don't SPAM.
UNPROFESSIONAL CONDUCT
Our company and our associated companies operate with the strictest codes of
professional conduct. Any Affiliate who brings us or its associates into
disrepute, or who promotes any form of slander, racism, unfair business
practices, or other action not in keeping with our mission will have their
affiliate status cancelled and any outstanding commissions WILL be forfeited.
We reserve the right to reject any affiliate application if in our opinion,
that person or company violates established laws or commonly held standards of
decency. An affiliate, who ignores warnings to cease and desist any activities
we deem negligent, inappropriate, or harmful, will be terminated.
MODIFICATION
We may modify any of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, at
any time and in our sole discretion, by posting a new agreement on our site.
Any modifications will ALSO be notified, by email, to all participating
affiliates. If any modification is unacceptable to you, you may terminate this
agreement. Your continued participation in the affiliate program following
notification of our new affiliate program will constitute binding acceptance of
the change.
CONFLICTS AND DISPUTES
As with any Affiliate program, a conflict or dispute may occasionally arise due
to tracking, orders, commission calculation, performance issues, and appeals
regarding "termination for cause".
-
If a concern should arise, send an email stating your full name, your affiliate
ID, your address and state the specifics of your concern. Include any dates or
numbers that apply. We will investigate immediately and will reply as soon as
possible.
-
We will make every effort to settle the dispute in a fair and equitable manner.
However, we realize situations may arise from time-to-time, that require a
ruling of a third party. In this case we will be open to mediation or
arbitration to settle the matter.
-
We have NOT pre-selected a mediator or arbitrator. Should one be needed we will
select a non-biased, third party moderator.
This concludes the agreement. Thank you for taking the time to read it
carefully. We look forward to working with you.
By signing up for our affiliate program, you are in effect, agreeing to the
above "affiliate agreement".
