The Program reserves the right to withhold or refuse approval for any reason, whatsoever.

A. In order to be eligible to become a Program Affiliate, all websites, affiliated websites and email distribution lists must meet the following criteria:

  • Be written in English and contain English language content.
  • Have a top-level domain name.
  • Cannot offer incentives to users to click on ads; incentives include but are not limited to awarding them cash, points, prizes, contest entries, etc.

  • Racial, ethnic, political, hate-mongering or otherwise objectionable content.

The Program grants You a non-transferable, non-exclusive limited license, if approved, to use the Site and any data, reports, information or analyses arising out of such use, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. You acknowledge and agree that You do not have, nor will claim any right, title or interest in the Site software, applications, data, methods of doing business or any elements thereof. You may only access the Site via web browser, email or in a manner approved by The Program. Site integration tags must NOT be altered. Altering tags may jeopardize Your ability to be paid for Events.

5. Fraud. The Program actively monitors traffic for Fraud. If we detect fraud, your account will be made temporarily banned, pending further investigation.

If you fraudulently add leads or clicks or inflate leads or clicks by fraudulent traffic generation (as determined solely by The Program, such as pre-population of forms or mechanisms not approved by The Program), you will forfeit your entire commission for all programs and your account will be Black Listed. The Program reserves sole judgment in determining fraud, and you agree to this clause.

It is the OBLIGATION of the Affiliate to prove to The Program that they are NOT committing fraud. The Program 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.
