Somatchi Affiliate Program - General Terms and Conditions
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") apply to your ("Publisher" or "Media Partner") participation in Somatchi's affiliate marketing program ("Program"). By joining the Program and continuing to participate, you agree to these Terms.
Enrollment and Eligibility:
To participate in the Program, Publishers must submit a participant application. Somatchi reserves the right to accept or reject any application at its sole discretion. By participating, you confirm that the information you provide is accurate and that you have the necessary authority to enter into this agreement.
Right to Use Somatchi Content:
During your participation in the Program, Somatchi grants a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Somatchi's brand assets (logo, images) provided through the affiliate platform. These may only be used for promoting Somatchi products. All intellectual property rights remain with Somatchi.
Qualifying Links:
Publishers will only earn commissions on sales generated through valid Qualifying Links provided by the affiliate platform. These links must be correctly formatted and placed on approved channels (e.g., website, social media). Somatchi is not responsible for tracking errors resulting from incorrect link usage.
Commission Payments:
Commissions will be paid based on the net sale value (excluding VAT, sales tax, shipping, and other fees). The standard commission rate is 10% of the final sale price. Payments are processed through the affiliate platform, and Somatchi is not responsible for direct payments to Publishers. Commission rates may be adjusted at Somatchi's discretion with prior notice.
Last-Click Attribution:
The Program follows a last-click attribution model, meaning the Publisher responsible for the last-clicked affiliate link before a sale is made will earn the commission. Usage of coupon codes or promotional offers will not, by themselves, influence last-click attribution.
Prohibited Conduct:
Publishers may not engage in deceptive practices, including:
- Bidding on Somatchi’s brand name or trademarks in search engine marketing (e.g., Google, Bing).
- Using unauthorized coupon codes or misleading promotional tactics.
- Displaying expired promotion codes or unauthorized promotional content.
- Using click-to-reveal technology or obscuring promotional codes.
Exclusions and Reversals:
Certain products or sales may be excluded from the Program at Somatchi’s discretion (e.g., gift cards). Somatchi reserves the right to reverse commissions for returned or canceled orders, sales that violate Program rules, or purchases using invalid coupon codes.
Termination:
Somatchi may terminate a Publisher’s participation in the Program at any time with written notice. Commissions earned up until the date of termination will be honored unless the sales are subject to reversal.
Confidentiality:
All confidential information shared during the Program, including commission rates, product information, and marketing strategies, must not be disclosed to third parties without Somatchi’s prior written consent.
Compliance with Laws:
Publishers must comply with all applicable laws, including the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) guidelines on endorsements and disclosures. Publishers must ensure that their promotion of Somatchi products accurately reflects their honest opinions and disclose any compensation received for endorsements.
Indemnification:
Publishers agree to indemnify Somatchi from any third-party claims arising from a violation of these Terms or applicable laws.
