3. Promotion of Our Affiliate Relationship

A. Use of Links. If you qualify and agree to participate as an Affiliate, we will make a variety of graphic and textual links available to you (each referred to herein as a “Link” or collectively, as the “Links”). The Links will serve to identify your website as a member of the Affiliate Program and will establish a link from your website or e-mail to Guri’s website. Unless expressly permitted by Guri, the Links are to be used on your website and you shall not distribute the Links to third parties to be posted on websites that you do not own. You agree to cooperate fully with us to establish, display and maintain such Links. You further agree that your use of the Links must be in compliance with this Agreement at all times. Guri may modify the Links from time to time at its sole discretion. You will not use graphic or textual images (indicating a Link) or text messages to promote Guri that are not approved in advance by Guri. Furthermore, you agree not to use cookie stuffing techniques that set the affiliate tracking cookie without the Referred Customer’s knowledge (e.g. iframe).

B. Prohibited Activities. Except as permitted herein, you shall not and are not authorized to (i) use Guri’s trademark or other intellectual property, including without limitation, the Links (collectively, “Guri’s IP”) without Guri’s express prior written permission; (ii) use Guri’s name (or any variation or misspelling thereof or other terms that are confusingly similar to any of the foregoing) in a domain name, any metatags, advertising, search terms, code, or otherwise; or (iii) act in any way that causes or could cause any confusion concerning the source of, or your association with Guri’s Products and Services.

Affiliates may only use active coupons and discounts that are provided exclusively through the Affiliate Program using banners and links. Each Link connecting users of the Affiliate Site to the pertinent area of the Guri website will in no way alter the look, feel, or functionality of the Guri website. Any violations of the terms surrounding links, coupons, refunds, credits, or discounts shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement, and may result in your termination from the Affiliate Program or the withholding of Commission Fees.

4. Order Processing

Guri will process orders placed by Referred Customers who follow the Links from an Affiliate Site to Guri. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to reject orders that do not comply with certain requirements that we may establish from time to time. All aspects of order processing and fulfillment, including Guri’s services, cancellation, processing, refunds, and payment processing will be our responsibility. We will track the Qualified Purchases generated by your Affiliate Site and will make this information available to you. To permit accurate tracking, reporting, and commission accrual, you must ensure that the Links between your website and our website are properly formatted.

5. Commission Determination; Qualified Purchases

A. Commission Fees will be calculated based on the commission rates stated on the Guri website for each Qualified Purchase (as defined herein) subject to commission accruing pursuant to Section 6 below. A “Qualified Purchase” does NOT include any of the following:

1. A purchase by a Referred Customer that has transferred from any Guri partner or entity that owns, is owned by or is under common ownership with Guri.
2. A purchase by a Referred Customer who is also associated with any Guri reseller, referral, or other program.
3. A purchase by a Referred Customer that is not up to date on its payments or is subject to a refund, referral, or other program.
4. A purchase that was completed prior to the Affiliate joining the Affiliate Program or was not tracked properly through an Affiliate Link.
5. A purchase by a Referred Customer that has not been in good standing for a period of at least thirty (30) days or is in violation of Guri’s Terms of Service, or other applicable policies at the time the Commission Fees accrue.
6. A purchase that Guri suspects, in its sole discretion, is the result of fraud, which shall include but is not limited to, the use of software that generates real and fictitious information, multiple accounts from the same customer, or the referral of accounts that do not comply with this Agreement.
7. A purchase referred by an Affiliate that has an excessive cancellation rate as determined in Guri’s sole discretion.
8. A purchase by a Referred Customer if the Referred Customer was offered or received refunds, credits, or discounts from the Affiliate.
9. A purchase by a Referred Customer if the Affiliate or Referred Customer is in or is promoting a business-opportunity program, as determined in Guri’s sole discretion.
10. A purchase by a Referred Customer who received a popup with a discounted offer, while leaving Guri’s website during their purchase.
11. A purchase by a Referred Customer engaging in “Domain Speculation,” which is determined by the identification of two (2) web hosting accounts with the same Referred Customer’s name, email address, or other identifying characteristic as determined by Guri and/or the identification of two (2) or more web hosting accounts that have no content on their websites or have similar content, templates or formatting, as determined in Guri’s sole discretion.
12. A purchase by a Referred Customer who, prior to such purchase, clicked through a Link established by another affiliate under this Affiliate Program.
13. A purchase by a Referred Customer more than thirty (30) days after clicking through the Affiliate Link. 

B. Guri reserves the right to withhold payment of Commission Fees to Affiliates who are new to the Affiliate Program, or who have referrals that are potentially the result of fraud as determined by Guri in its sole discretion, to determine the legitimacy and cancellation rates of Referred Customers.

C. Guri reserves the right to suspend the payment of Commission Fees at any time and indefinitely, if it suspects fraud or other improper activity or a potential breach of any of the terms of this Agreement by the Affiliate or a Referred Customer. Guri reserves the right to deduct from Affiliate’s current and future Commission Fees any and all Commission Fees corresponding to any fraudulent, questionable, and canceled purchases. If no subsequent Commission Fees are due and owing, Guri may send Affiliate a bill for the balance of such refunded purchase upon termination of Affiliate’s participation in the Affiliate Program or termination of the Referred Customer.

D. Guri reserves the right to immediately cancel or withhold for later review any Commission Fees that fail to meet the criteria of a “Qualified Purchase.” Affiliate is responsible for monitoring the payment, denial, and withholding of Commission Fees; Guri is not obligated to actively notify Affiliates of the status of Commission Fees. If Affiliate has a question about a Commission Fee that has been canceled or withheld, Affiliate has thirty (30) days from the day the payment would have been due to contact Guri to request that the Commission Fee be paid. Any changes to decisions about canceled or withheld Commission Fees are strictly made at Guri’s sole discretion.

E. Commissions for any Referred Customer who is associated with any Guri reseller, referral or other program may not be considered a Qualified Purchase. In other words, you may not receive double commissions or compensation.

F. In the event that the Referred Customers that are referred to Guri by an Affiliate are determined to have an excessive cancellation rate, as determined by Guri in its sole discretion, Guri reserves the right to withhold or decline pending and future Commission Fees to such Affiliate.

G. Any attempt by an Affiliate to manipulate, falsify or inflate Referred Customers, Qualified Purchases, or Commission Fees to intentionally defraud Guri or any violation of the terms of this Agreement constitutes immediate grounds for Guri to terminate the Affiliate’s participation in the Affiliate Program and will result in the forfeiture of any Commission Fees due to the Affiliate.

6. Commission Payments

A. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Commission Fees will be calculated according to the specified percentage or amount set forth in the commission report in your Affiliate Console for each Qualified Purchase that accrues during the period for which such Commission Fees are being calculated.

B. Commission Fees will be processed approximately thirty (30) to forty-five (45) days after the end of the month in which they accrue.

C. Guri will only compensate you for Qualified Purchases made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

D Commission Fees shall be paid based on the current information in your Affiliate Console. You are required to notify promptly of any change in your address by updating your profile information in the Affiliate Console. You are responsible for informing Guri of your desired payment form/type. 

E. Guri in its sole discretion, reserve the right to modify the available commission payment methods or payment schedule at any time. Such changes shall take effect when posted.

F. Disputes: Affiliate has access to Guri’s real-time Affiliate Program statistics and agrees to file any disputes within thirty (30) days after the end of the month in which the sale or event that is disputed occurred. Disputes filed after thirty (30) days of the date on which the disputed sale or event occurred will not be accepted by Guri and Affiliate forfeits forever any rights to a potential claim.

G. Commission Fees will accrue and only become payable once you provide all relevant tax and address documentation. It is solely your responsibility to provide accurate tax and payment information that is necessary to issue Commission Fees to you. If Guri does not receive the necessary tax or payment information within ninety (90) days of a Qualified Purchase which would otherwise trigger Commission Fees, the applicable commissions shall not accrue and no Commission Fees will be owed with respect to such Qualified Purchase.

H. Guri is not responsible for paying any third-party fees, including any fees charged by PayPal, in order for you to receive Commission Fees.

7. Reports of Qualified Purchases

You may log into your Affiliate Console to review your click-through and potential Qualified Purchases statistics on a daily basis. The potential Qualified Purchases shown in this report have not been reviewed to confirm they meet all criteria for Qualified Purchases. As such, Commission Fees may not be issued for all Referred Customers that appear in the Affiliate Console.

8. Obligations Regarding Your Affiliate Site

A. You are solely responsible for the development, operation, and maintenance of your Affiliate Site and for all materials that appear on your Affiliate Site. Such responsibilities include, but are not limited to, the technical operation of your Affiliate Site and all related equipment; creating and posting product reviews, descriptions, and references on your Affiliate Site and linking those descriptions to our website; the accuracy of materials posted on your Affiliate Site (including, but not limited to, all materials related to Guri Products and Services); ensuring that materials posted on your Affiliate Site do not violate or infringe upon the rights of any third party and are not libelous or otherwise illegal. We disclaim all liability and responsibility for such matters.

B. We have the right in our sole discretion to monitor signups through your Affiliate Site from time to time to determine if you are in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. If you are not in compliance, we may terminate your participation in the Affiliate Program effective immediately.

9. Guri Responsibilities

We will provide all of the information necessary for you to make Links from your Affiliate Site to our site. Guri will be solely responsible for order processing (including payment processing, cancellations, and refunds) for orders for Guri Products and Services placed by a Referred Customer, for tracking the volume and amount of Qualified Purchases generated by your Affiliate Site, for providing information to Affiliates regarding Qualified Purchase statistics, and for providing Referred Customers with the services purchased. 

10. Policies and Pricing

Referred Customers who buy Guri Products and Services through our affiliate network are deemed to be Guri customers. Guri’s Terms and Conditions, rules, policies, and operating procedures will apply to such customers. We may change our policies, pricing, and operating procedures at any time. For example, Guri determines the prices to be charged for Guri Products and Services sold through the affiliate network in accordance with our own pricing policies. Prices and availability of Guri Products and Services may vary from time to time, from affiliate to affiliate, and from region to region. Because price changes may affect products that you have listed on your Affiliate Site, you may or may not be able to include price information in your product descriptions. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to present accurate information on our website, but we cannot guarantee the availability or price of any particular Guri Product or Service.

11. Emails and Publicity

You shall not create, publish, transmit or distribute, under any circumstances, any bulk email messages without Guri’s prior written consent, to be granted or denied in Guri’s sole discretion, in each instance. Additionally, you may only send emails containing a Guri affiliate link and or a message regarding Guri or the Affiliate Program to people who have previously consented to receiving such communications from you. Your failure to abide by this Section and all applicable laws relating to email communications, in any manner, will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement by you and will result in the forfeiture by you of any and all rights you may have to any Commission Fees and the termination of your participation in the Affiliate Program. Further, if your account has excessive clicks in a very short period of time as determined by Guri in its sole discretion, the Affiliate relationship may be terminated.

12. IP Licenses and Use

A. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, including Section 3, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-assignable, revocable license to (i) provide access to Guri’s website through the Links solely in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and (ii) use Guri’s IP for the sole purpose of promoting Guri’s Products and Services on your Affiliate Site. You may not alter, modify, or change Guri’s IP in any way or use Guri’s IP in any manner that is disparaging or that otherwise portrays Guri, any Guri employee, representative, or customer in a negative light.

Your license to use Guri’s IP shall immediately terminate upon the termination of your participation in the Affiliate Program for any reason.

B. You grant us a non-exclusive license to utilize your name, title, trademarks, and logos (the “Affiliate Trademarks”) in any advertisement or other materials used to promote Guri and the Affiliate Program.

This license shall terminate upon the termination of your participation in the Affiliate Program.

13. Term and Termination

A. The terms of this Agreement are effective upon your submission of an application to the Affiliate Program and shall remain in effect until either party terminates your participation in the Affiliate Program (the “Term”). Your participation in the Affiliate Program may be terminated at any time by either party, with or without notice or cause.

B. You are only eligible to earn Commission Fees on Qualified Purchases occurring during the Term. Commission Fees earned prior to the date of termination will be eligible for Commission Fees only if the orders for the related Guri Products and Services are not canceled within (30) days and comply with all of the terms of this Agreement. We may withhold your final payment of Commission Fees for a reasonable time to ensure that all Qualified Purchases are valid and payment from Referred Customers are legitimate as determined by Guri in its sole discretion.

C. Any Affiliate who violates this Agreement, Guri’s Terms of Service, or any applicable law or regulation will immediately forfeit any right to any and all accrued, but not yet received, Commission Fees and will be immediately removed from the Affiliate Program.

D. Guri reserves the right to remove an Affiliate from the Affiliate Program and to terminate or suspend this Agreement, at any time for any reason, at Guri’s sole discretion.

14. Modification

We may modify this Agreement at any time in our sole discretion; provided that the change shall solely apply to events occurring after the date on which you accept and agree to such modifications unless you otherwise agree herein. Such modifications shall take effect when posted on our website. Modifications may include, but are not limited to, changes in the scope of available Commission Fees, commission amounts or percentages, payment procedures, Commission Fee payment schedules, and Affiliate Program rules. If any modification is unacceptable to you, your only recourse is to terminate this agreement, in which event you shall be entitled to your rights under the unmodified Agreement prior to the date of the applicable modification. Your continued participation in the Affiliate Program following our posting of any modification on our website will constitute binding acceptance of the change.
