This agreement will be governed by the
following rules and conditions:
- This agreement will be governed by the
laws of the United States.
- The Classified Club will give you (the
'reseller') a commission (variable rate; currently set at 40%)
on the sale price of all memberships sold through a direct referral
from any banner or icon displayed on the sponsor's web site.
- This agreement is purely for giving a
commission on sales effected through referrals by the banner
on sponsor's page. The term, 'sponsor', does not imply any formal
association with The Classified Club, and the Partner does not
have any right on our products, logos or trademarks.
- The Partner is not permitted to represent
The Classified Club in any way other than displaying a banner
on the web site. The Partner may, however, write independent
product reviews for any particular product listed in the Club
in order to increase the effectiveness of the banner.
- Although we fully intend to keep this
rate as it stands, we reserve the right to alter the rate of
commission at any time without notice. Any credit accumulating
after such change will be at the new rate. i.e. the Partner is
not guaranteed to have the same rate as the one started with.
This is not a loophole to defraud you, but a way for us to prepare
for anything unforeseeable. As we see it now, such change should
never be necessary.
- We reserve the right to change the product
prices from time to time which may have an effect on the commission.
- The commission will be credited only when
the payment for the sale is cleared. If the buyer requests a
refund at a later time, the original commission credited will
be deducted from future commissions.
- This system is dependent on a cookie being
placed in the web surfer's computer. We will not be responsible
for any cookie failure that may result in the user's clicks going
unregistered. Some web-surfers have disabled cookies on their
web browser (a very small percentage). There is no way for us
to track who that sale came from without the cookie. Although
this percentage is small, there are certain cases like that.
- The commission will be paid monthly regardless
of amount, and such payment will be through a check written from
a US bank account in US dollars. We will not be responsible for
a sponsor's inability to cash the check or a loss of amount due
to exchange rates.
- We will not accept responsibility for
clearing the check at your financial institution.
- We reserve the right to evaluate your
site and terminate individual agreements after notification through
E-mail. In such situations, our sole responsibility ends at issuing
a check corresponding to the outstanding amount in your credit.
No explanation for the termination will necessarily be given.
- Under this program, you are only entitled
to commissions for memberships sold at The Classified Club.
- We reserve the right to cancel the whole
Partner program without notice. As in the previous case, if it
happens all sponsors will be issued with a check corresponding
to any outstanding amount in their credit.
- The Partner is not under any obligation
to keep the banners on their web site. Removal of the banner
may not result in an immediate cessation of credit accumulation.
No correspondence regarding the removal of banner is required
or will necessarily be answered by The Classified Club.
- Any correspondence relating to loss of
the check in mail, or inability to cash the check, must be notified
within a reasonable time to let us decide on alternative payment
method(s).
- Any tax liability on the amount of commission
received will be the sponsor's responsibility. You are not employed
by us nor are you entitled to any benefits normally found in
an employer/employee relationship. You are required to claim
the commissioned earned from us on your tax return.
- While it is up to the Partner to choose
where the banner should appear, it must not be placed on a page/position
that can be defamatory to us or counter-productive. If requested
by us such banner links must be removed.
- Only the banners/icons recommended or
approved by us must be used in the link.
- It should clearly be understood that a
direct correlation between 'click-throughs' (verifiable through
the online
query form) and sales may not exist. All operations are automatic
(or semi-automatic) and hence no valid sales referred by you
will go unrecorded with the exception of the rare instances listed
above.
- We will periodically send out a newsletter
addressing ides for increasing sales and other issues.
