Summary

At Torrid, fit matters. That’s why we’ve broken the rules of design and spent years perfecting our fits. And because we don’t believe curvy bodies should change to fit clothes, we’ve changed clothes to fit curvy bodies.

  • TORRID’s policies, specifications, and/or recommendations with respect to Publisher websites, email, suppression, compliance notices, email distribution lists and/or marketing channels used by the Publisher should not be construed as legal advice, or as sufficient guidelines to ensure that such websites, email, suppression, compliance notices, email distribution lists and/or marketing channels comply with applicable law. TORRID does not represent or warrant that such specifications, and/or recommendations are legally compliant or appropriate. TORRID assumes no obligation and hereby disclaims any liability for Publisher’s use of and/or reliance upon any such policies, specifications, and/or recommendations.

OFFER AND PLACEMENT

  • TORRID grants the Publisher a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to download Offers from the Program Site and to display, transmit, distribute or publish the same as is necessary to perform this Agreement. The Publisher agrees not to modify, alter, misrepresent or embellish the Offer or the Advertising Materials or any part thereof in any way, directly or indirectly. Unless authorized in writing by TORRID, the Publisher shall not broker, syndicate, transfer, sublease, rent, lease, sell, resell, outsource or service any Offer, and any attempt to do so shall be null and void. Publisher shall not alter, copy, modify, take, sell, re-use, or divulge in any manner any Advertising Material or computer code provided by TORRID without TORRID’s prior written consent. Any part of the Offer, including but not limited to the Advertising Material, which is copied, changed or altered without TORRID’s prior written consent will result in non-payment and may result in termination. This license gives the Publisher no independent right to use TORRID’s trademarks, service marks, names, logo or other intellectual property. Any breach of this license shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement. TORRID reserves any rights not explicitly granted in this Agreement.
  • It is the Publisher’s responsibility to check the Program Site often and to ensure the Offer or any part of the Offer that the Publisher has published matches what is posted on the Program Site, even if the Offer or any part of the Offer has been modified in the Program Site since the Publisher initially downloaded the Offer.
  • Where TORRID has set specified dates for an Offer and/or capped delivery, Publisher shall pause each Campaign after either limitation is met. The Publisher is solely responsible for ensuring delivery and performance as specified in each Offer.

PAYMENT/ REPORTING

All payments will be made in US funds. Receipt of Commissions by Publisher shall be considered in full and final satisfaction for Campaigns delivered by Publisher.
  • Commissioned sales are for business-to-consumer users only. US/Canadian Publishers may not engage in, endorse or receive commission credit for suspected or known freight forwarding or reselling activities. Any order(s) with same SKU quantities of 50 or more are considered bulk orders and do not qualify for commission or cash back. TORRID does not pay Commissions on gift cards, gift packaging, or direct donations and reserves the right to reverse Commissions earned from the purchase of said gift cards, gift packaging, or donation SKUs. This does not include items that are purchased with a gift card.

Haute Cash and other unapproved (non-affiliate) codes are not commissionable. Transactions using unapproved codes will have their associated Commissions reversed.
  • If Publisher does not dispute the amount of Commissions within sixty (60) days of rejection, such Commissions shall be deemed final and may not thereafter be disputed.
  • TORRID reserves the right to reconcile or adjust the value on any transaction that is attributed to another marketing channel.
  • TORRID reserves the absolute right to withhold all or some of the amounts due to Publisher in the event TORRID determines, in its sole discretion, that Publisher is in violation of this Agreement, for traffic generated by fraudulent means and/ or to offset any past due liability to TORRID.
