AFFILIATE PAYMENT
Calculation. Zero Parallel will compile, calculate, and post on the Site, data derived from the Transaction Tracking Codes and supplementary sources used by Zero Parallel to determine the amount You will be paid.
The amount You will be paid (the “Commissions”) will be determined by the number of Accepted Leads You produce during a given period as calculated through the Transaction Tracking Codes (the “Payment Data”) at the rate set forth in the applicable Insertion Order. If, for any reason (including impairment of the Transaction Tracking Codes), Zero Parallel is unable or fails to provide You with accurate or complete Payment Data, Zero Parallel will calculate Compensable Transactions (“Projected Compensable Transactions”), based upon:
a. Your average weekly Compensable Transactions recorded by Zero Parallel for the applicable Campaign, prorated for any shorter or longer period of time, where Payment Data needed to calculate such a weekly average is available; or
b. such amount that Zero Parallel reasonably determines is due, in its sole discretion, where Payment Data needed to calculate such a bi-monthly average is unavailable.
Timing. Zero Parallel will pay Commissions on a weekly basis approximately seven days after the end of the prior week for all Commissions earned during such period, provided that You must meet the payment threshold for Your elected payment method (the “Payment Threshold”). All payments will be in U.S. Dollars. AWIN may require You to provide an IRS Form W-9, or similar tax identification information, prior to receiving any Commission payments.
Validation of Leads. A Lead will be a “Valid Lead” if it:
a. is not a computer generated user, such as a robot, spider, computer script, or other automated, artificial, or fraudulent method designed to appear like a natural person, and has submitted information that meets all of Zero Parallel’s criteria.
Zero Parallel will have no obligation to pay for any data that it or the end buyer of the Lead (an “Advertiser”), as appropriate, determines, in its respective sole discretion, does not constitute a Valid Lead (an “Invalid Lead”). If, after tendering payment, Zero Parallel or an Advertiser determines that a Lead is an Invalid Lead,
b. Zero Parallel will reduce or withhold any future payment to You up to the amount paid for any previous Invalid Leads, or
c. You will refund Zero Parallel the amount paid for the Invalid Lead if You have not accrued sufficient Commissions to offset the cost of the Invalid Leads for a given period.

If You are found tampering with or engaging in fraud in connection with this Referral program, You will be: (i) terminated from the Network; (ii) disqualified from receiving any associated Referral Revenue; and (iii) subject to all other remedies available to Zero Parallel at law and in equity resulting from such fraud
Zero Parallel may terminate or modify the Referral program at any time in its sole discretion.
