ENROLLMENT

We reserve the right to reject any application, however we encourage you to contact us if you feel we have made an incorrect decision. Including all of the websites that you use in your profile will help us make a better decision.
WEBSITE RESTRICTIONS
Your participating website(s) may not:
Infringe on our or anyone else's intellectual property, publicity, privacy or other rights.
Violate any law, rule or regulation.
Contain any content that is threatening, harassing, defamatory, obscene, harmful to minors, or contains nudity, pornography or sexually explicit materials.
Contain any viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time bombs, cancelbots, or other computer programming routines that are intended to damage, interfere with, surreptitiously intercept or expropriate any system, data, or personal information.
LINKING TO OUR WEBSITE
Upon acceptance into the programme, links will be made available to you through the affiliate interface. Your acceptance in our programme means you agree to and abide by the following.
You will only use linking code obtained from the affiliate interface without manipulation.
All domains that use your affiliate link must be listed in your affiliate profile.
Your website will not in any way copy, resemble, or mirror the look and feel of our website. You will also not use any means to create the impression that your website is our website or any part of our website including, without limitation, framing of our website in any manner.
You may not engage in cookie stuffing or include pop-ups, false or misleading links on your website. In addition, wherever possible, you will not attempt to mask the referring url information (i.e. the page from where the click is originating).
Using redirects to bounce a click off of a domain from which the click did not originate in order to give the appearance that it came from that domain is prohibited.
If you are found redirecting links to hide or manipulate their original source, your current and past commissions will be voided or your commission level will be set to 0%. This does not include using "out" redirects from the same domain where the affiliate link is placed.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
You may not bid on any paid search terms in any geographic area or day part without written approval from Apposta Ltd.
You may not participate in any retargeting program of any kind, including but not limited to traditional retargeting, search retargeting, email retargeting, etc. without written permission from Apposta Ltd.
If you are enrolled in our programme and your website promotes coupon codes, you must adhere to our coupon guidelines as follows:
Posting any information about how to work around the requirements of a coupon/promotion (i.e. first time customers only) will result in removal from the programme.
Coupons must be displayed in their entirety with the full offer, valid expiration date and code.
You may not give the appearance that any ongoing offer requires clicking from your website in order to redeem. For example, if all items on the site have free shipping over EUR 220, you may not turn this into an offer that infers that the customer must click from your site to get this deal.
Any affiliate that does participate in any of the above tactics without previous consent will be immediately removed from the affiliate program and have all commissions cancelled.
DOMAIN NAMES
Use of any of our trademarked or other company-specific terms as part of the domain (e.g. www.apposta-shirts.com) or sub-domain (e.g. apposta.yourdomain.com) for your website is strictly prohibited.

You are allowed to promote offers to your own lists; more specifically, you’re welcome to use your affiliate links on your own Facebook, Instagram, etc. pages. For example: You may post, "20% discount on all sales until 14 April 2020 using code OneStepCloser"
You are prohibited from posting your affiliate links on Apposta’s Facebook, Instagram, etc. company pages in an attempt to turn those links into affiliate sales.
