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.
