Affiliate Agreement
This Agreement contains the
complete terms and conditions that apply to an individual's or entity's
participation in the Purewater4u.com Associates Program (the "Program").
As used in this Agreement, "we" means Purewater4u.com, and "you" means
the applicant. "Site" means a World Wide Web site and, depending on the
context, refers either to Purewater4u.com's site located at the URL www.purewater4u.com,
or to the site that you will link to our site (and which you will identify
in your Program application).
Enrollment in
the Program
To begin the enrollment
process, you will submit a Program application via our site. We will evaluate
your application in good faith and will notify you of your acceptance or
rejection. We may reject your application if we determine (at our sole
discretion) that your site is unsuitable for the Program. Unsuitable sites
include those that:
Promote sexually explicit
materials
Promote violence
Promote discrimination based
on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or
age
Promote illegal activities
Otherwise violate intellectual
property rights
If we reject your application,
you are welcome to reapply to the Program at any time. You should also
note that if we accept your application and your site is thereafter determined
(at our sole discretion) to be unsuitable for the Program, we may terminate
this Agreement.
Links on Your
Site
Once you have been notified
that your site has been accepted into the Program, Purewater4u.com will
give you HTML Codes to choose from for you to add to your site.
You can place the HTML Code
anywhere on your site, top, middle, bottom, and on as many pages as you
feel appropriate.
Order Processing
We will process product
orders placed by customers who follow special links from your site to our
site. We reserve the right to reject orders that do not comply with any
requirements that we periodically may establish. We will be responsible
for all aspects of order processing and fulfillment. Among other things,
we will prepare order forms; process payments, cancellations, and returns;
and handle customer service. We will track sales made to customers who
purchase products using special links from your site to our site and will
make available to you reports summarizing this sales activity. The form,
content, and frequency of the reports may vary from time to time at our
discretion.
Referral Fees
We will pay you (in accordance
with Sections listed below) referral fees on certain Product sales to third
parties. For a Product sale to be eligible to earn a referral fee, the
customer must follow a Special Link from your site to our site, select
and purchase the Product using our automated ordering system, accept delivery
of the Product at the shipping destination, and remit full payment to us.
We will not, however, pay referral fees on any Products that are added
to a customer's Shopping Cart or are purchased after the customer has reentered
our site (other than through a Special Link), even if the customer previously
followed a link from your site to our site.
You may not purchase products
during sessions initiated through the links on your site for your own use,
for resale or commercial use of any kind. This includes orders for customers
or on behalf of customers or orders for products to be used by you or your
friends, relatives or associates in any manner. Such purchases may result
(in our sole discretion) in the withholding of referral fees or the termination
of this Agreement. Products that are eligible to earn referral fees under
the rules set forth above are referred to as "Qualifying Products."
In addition, you may not
directly or indirectly offer any person or entity any consideration or
incentive (including, without limitation, payment of money or awarding
of any benefits) for using Special Links on your site to access our site
(e.g., by implementing any "rewards" program for persons or entities who
use Special Links on your site to access our site). If we determine, in
our sole discretion, that you have offered any person or entity any such
consideration or incentive, we may (without limiting any other rights or
remedies available to us) withhold any referral fees otherwise payable
to you under this Agreement.
Referral Fee Schedule
You will earn referral fees
based on qualifying revenues according to referral fee schedules to be
established by us. "qualifying revenues" are revenues derived by us from
our sales of qualifying products, excluding costs for shipping, handling,
gift-wrapping, taxes, service charges, credit card processing fees, and
bad debt. The current referral fee schedule is:
10% of Qualifying Revenues
from the sale on the date of order that is added to the customer's Shopping
Cart directly from the first page that results from following a Special
Link to the Purewater4u.com site.
Referral Fee Payment
We will pay you referral
fees on a monthly basis. Approximately 10 days following the end of each
calendar month, we will send you a check for the referral fees earned on
our sales of Qualifying Products that were shipped during that month If
a Product that generated a referral fee is returned by the customer, we
will deduct the corresponding referral fee from your next quarterly payment.
If there is no subsequent payment, we will send you a bill for the referral
fee.
Policies and Pricing
Customers who buy products
through this Program will be deemed to be customers of Purewater4u.com.
Accordingly, all Purewater4u.com rules, policies, and operating procedures
concerning customer orders, customer service, and product sales will apply
to those customers. We may change our policies and operating procedures
at any time. For example, we will determine the prices to be charged for
products sold under this Program in accordance with our own pricing policies.
Product prices and availability may vary from time to time. Because price
changes may affect products that you already have listed on your site,
you may not include price information in your product descriptions. We
will use commercially reasonable efforts to present accurate information,
but we cannot guarantee the availability or price of any particular product.
Identifying Yourself
as an Associate
We will make available to
you a small graphic image that identifies your site as a Program participant.
You must display this logo somewhere on your site. We may modify the text
or graphic image of this notice from time to time. In addition, we encourage
(but do not require) you to include a Special Link on your site to the
Purewater4u.com home page at http://www.purewater4u.com. You may not make
any press release with respect to this Agreement or your participation
in the Program without our prior written consent, which may be given or
withheld in our sole discretion. In addition, you may not in any manner
misrepresent or embellish the relationship between us and you, or express
or imply any relationship or affiliation between us and you or any other
person or entity except as expressly permitted by this Agreement (including
by expressing or implying that Purewater4u.com supports, sponsors, endorses
or contributes money to any charity or other cause).
Limited License
We grant you a nonexclusive,
revocable right to use the graphic image and text described in Section
8 and such other images for which we grant express permission, solely for
the purpose of identifying your site as a Program participant and to assist
in generating product sales. You may not modify the graphic image or text,
or any other of our images, in any way. We reserve all of our rights in
the graphic image and text, any other images, our trade names and trademarks,
and all other intellectual property rights. You agree to follow our Trademark
Guidelines , as those guidelines may change from time to time. We may revoke
your license at any time by giving you written notice.
Responsibility
for Your Site
You will be solely responsible
for the development, operation, and maintenance of your site and for all
materials that appear on your site. For example, you will be solely responsible
for:
The technical operation
of your site and all related equipment
The accuracy and appropriateness
of materials posted on your site (including, among other things, all Product-related
materials)
Ensuring that materials
posted on your site do not violate or infringe upon the rights of any third
party (including, for example, copyrights, trademarks, privacy, or other
personal or proprietary rights)
Ensuring that materials
posted on your site are not libelous or otherwise illegal
We disclaim all liability
for these matters. Further, you will indemnify and hold us harmless from
all claims, damages, and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees) relating to the development, operation, maintenance, and contents
of your site.
Term of the Agreement
The term of this Agreement
will begin upon our acceptance of your Program application and will end
when terminated by either party. Either you or we may terminate this Agreement
at any time, with or without cause, by giving the other party written notice
of termination. Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason,
you will immediately cease use of, and remove from your site, all links
to our site, and all Purewater4u.com trademarks, trade dress and logos,
and all other materials provided by or on behalf of us to you pursuant
hereto or in connection with the Program. You are only eligible to earn
referral fees on our sales of Qualifying Products occurring during the
term, and referral fees earned through the date of termination will remain
payable only if the related orders are not canceled or returned. We may
withhold your final payment for a reasonable time to ensure that the correct
amount is paid.
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 change notice or a new agreement on our site.
Modifications may include, for example, changes in the scope of available
referral fees, referral fee schedules, payment procedures, and Program
rules. IF ANY MODIFICATION IS UNACCEPTABLE TO YOU, YOUR ONLY RECOURSE IS
TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT. YOUR CONTINUED PARTICIPATION IN THE PROGRAM
FOLLOWING OUR POSTING OF A CHANGE NOTICE OR NEW AGREEMENT ON OUR SITE WILL
CONSTITUTE BINDING ACCEPTANCE OF THE CHANGE.
Relationship of
Parties
You and we are independent
contractors, and nothing in this Agreement will create any partnership,
joint venture, agency, franchise, sales representative, or employment relationship
between the parties. You will have no authority to make or accept any offers
or representations on our behalf. You will not make any statement, whether
on your site or otherwise, that reasonably would contradict anything in
this Section.
Limitation of
Liability
We will not be liable for
indirect, special, or consequential damages (or any loss of revenue, profits,
or data) arising in connection with this Agreement or the Program, even
if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Further, our
aggregate liability arising with respect to this Agreement and the Program
will not exceed the total referral fees paid or payable to you under this
Agreement.
Disclaimers
We make no express or implied
warranties or representations with respect to the Program or any products
sold through the Program (including, without limitation, warranties of
fitness, merchantability, noninfringement, or any implied warranties arising
out of a course of performance, dealing, or trade usage). In addition,
we make no representation that the operation of our site will be uninterrupted
or error-free, and we will not be liable for the consequences of any interruptions
or errors.
