Affiliates.
Each Affiliate is an Independent Contractor of
Green Web Services and not
an employee. Nothing herein is intended to create an
employer/employee relationship.
Commissions; Referral Fees.
Whenever someone orders through your Affiliate link, your
affiliate ID is credited with a referral fee. The
commission/referral fee amount may vary from affiliate to
affiliate or from product to product. The rate at which your
commission is paid can be found in the affiliate area of our
website.
Before any Affiliate may be a sent a commission
check, Green Web Services may require the Affiliate to
submit to Green Web Services identification information.
Such identification information shall include, at a minimum,
a copy of a government issued, picture, identification card
(for example, a driver’s license). These documents shall be
emailed or faxed to Green Web Services. Should Green Web
Services require such identification information, you will
not receive any payment of commission/referral fees until
such time as you submit the required documentation to Green
Web Services.
Income Tax liabilities.
Affiliate agrees that Affiliate is acting as an independent
contractor and as such is responsible for any or all
Canadian, United States, State, or foreign Income Taxes and
any other tax liabilities that affect or concern the sales
of the products or services, in your state or location. If
you are NOT a resident of Canada,
Green Web Services may withhold the appropriate income tax
applicable to foreign nationals, prior to your receipt of
any commissions, if required to do so by law.
Commission schedule.
Commissions are paid once per month by payment processor on
the 26th of the month for sales made from the 1st through
the 31st of the prior month, and are paid by
Green Web Services.
There is a minimum commission amount of $25.00 USD. This is
the minimum amount that you must earn before you will be
paid commissions. In any commission period, your commission
must exceed this amount before you will receive any sums for
that period. Commissions below this minimum amount will be
held until such time as the commission equals or exceeds
this amount.
Commissions are not paid for any sales for which payment has
not been received, or for any transaction that has been
rejected for any reason.
We are not responsible for paying interest to Affiliates for
accrued but not yet delivered Commission payments.
If a transaction incurs a charge-back, or if an online
transaction is not completed in every way, no commission
payment is due to the Affiliate. If a commission has already
been paid, then it will be deducted from an active
Affiliate's future commissions.
All commissions are paid in US Dollars by PayPal or bank
draft. Affiliates requesting bank drafts will have a
processing fee of $10.00 deducted from the check. This fee
may change at any time.
Each Affiliate is responsible for selecting the payment
processor through which to receive their
commissions/referral fees, from the payment processors
supported by Green Web Services.
If you elect a payment processor through which to receive
your commissions and you later terminate the account or the
account becomes unavailable for any reason,
Green Web Services is not
responsible for your not receiving the money. Each Affiliate
is responsible for always maintaining the payment processor
through which they receive their commissions/referral fees
OR selecting an alternate method of payment supported by
Green Web Services. This
election is entirely made by the Affiliate and
Green Web Services assumes
no responsibility for non-receipt of payments made according
to the payment processor elected by the Affiliate, or the
Affiliate's lack of ability to then conform to the payment
processors or processes supported by the
Green Web Services.
Green Web Services assumes
no responsibility for an Affiliate not electing a payment
processor. If an Affiliate fails to elect a payment
processor, any sums due will be paid via check and any fees
applicable to payments by check or bank draft will be
deducted.
Mixing of Products.
As an Affiliate of Green Web
Services, your website on which you advertise any
products of Green Web Services
may only include products that are not capable of being
viewed by persons 13 years of age or younger if
Green Web Services
specifically allows such products. Your website may NOT
contain any content or images that are NOT capable of being
viewed by persons 13 years of age or younger if you include
any reference whatsoever to Green
Web Services, its websites, its Products, or your
Affiliate Link. On any website on which you include any
reference whatsoever to Green Web
Services, its Products, websites or your Affiliate
Link, you may NOT include any reference whatsoever to any
form of "Adult" content. Any violation of these requirements
will result in immediate termination of your Affiliate
status and you shall forfeit any commissions/referral fees
that may be due. In the event that any violation of these
requirements results in the suspension or termination of any
payment processor for Green Web Services, you shall be
liable for liquidated damages in the amount of $10,000 as
well as actual and any consequential or actual damages that
or Green Web Services may incur.
Payment Processor Fees. All commissions are
calculated based on the net transaction. In other words, all
payment processor fees are first deducted from the sums
collected from the customer. Then, all payment processor
fees are deducted. The remaining amount is a commissionable
sale. The commission rates listed on the commission schedule
are then applied to determine the amount due the Affiliate.
Any sums paid for payment processor fees are not
commissionable. Green Web Services
may also charge a per transaction fee for every
transaction processed.
SPAM; Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE).
Green Web Services does not tolerate the sending of unsolicited
bulk emails (UCE or SPAM) which promote, or make reference
to Green Web Services, or any of their associated companies
or websites, Partners, or employees, the websites, products
or services. The provisions of the Terms and Conditions
pertaining to UCE or SPAM shall apply to each Affiliate. Any
Affiliate who, in the opinion of
Green Web Services, breaches this rule will have
their Affiliate status cancelled and any outstanding
commissions will be forfeited.
Unprofessional conduct.
Green Web Services and their
associated companies operate with the strictest codes
of professional conduct. Any Affiliate who brings the Green
Web Services or their employees, Partners, or associates
into disrepute, or who promotes any form of slander, racism,
or unfair business practices, will have their Affiliate
status cancelled and any outstanding commissions will be
forfeited.
Green Web Services
reserves the right to reject any affiliate application if in
Green Web Services'
opinion, that person or entity violates established laws or
commonly held standards of decency. For example, we will
reject applications from any person or company that promotes
any form of violence, illegal activities, or from applicants
who either Green Web Services
prefer not to be associated with.
Affiliate Sales/Tracking. After signing up for the
Affiliate Program you will receive a unique affiliate URL
which you will use to advertise the website. When someone
clicks through this URL, a cookie will be set in their
browser with your affiliate ID and
their IP address may also be logged with your affiliate ID.
During that visit to the website or any later visit, when a
purchase is made the commission will be given based on the
existence of the cookie.
In order to receive proper credit for sales, a person or
entity must purchase through your unique affiliate
URL. Green Web Services allows masking or cloaking but You
must provide a repeatable process for our verification of
the cloaked link, otherwise the use of the masked or cloaked
link is disallowed.
