AGREEMENTS FOLLOWING ACCEPTANCE
The following terms and conditions will be effective if and only if Field Company accepts your application. By applying to be a Field Company Affiliate, you agree to be bound and abide by such terms and conditions. If you do not agree with any of the terms or conditions set forth herein, do not join this Affiliate Program.
1. Links on Your Site. To permit accurate tracking, reporting and commission accrual, we will authorize ShareASale to give you access on the ShareASale Site to special "tagged" link formats or other code ("Special Links") to be used in all links between your Site and our Site. You must ensure that each of the links between your Site and our Site properly uses such Special Link formats. We will not be liable to you with respect to any failure by you to use Special Links, including to the extent that such failure may result in any reduction of amounts that would otherwise be paid to you pursuant to this Agreement.
Each Special Link, as viewed by a customer, will be in the form of a Field Company logo, text link or product provided by us. The Field Company logo for each Special Link will be served by ShareASale servers, which can only be accessed by using the special "tagged" link formats. You agree only to use the Field Company logos and images provided by us via the ShareASale Site, and you further agree not to obtain or use ShareASale logos or images from any other source without our prior written approval. Your Site's title and other trademarks and linking logos must appear at least as prominently as the Field Company logo that is used to create the Special Link.
2. Order Processing. We will process product orders placed by customers who follow Special Links from your Site to our Site. We reserve the right to reject orders that do not comply with any and all requirements that we periodically may establish. We will be responsible for all aspects of order processing and fulfillment. Among other things, we will prepare order forms, process payments, cancellations, and returns, and handle customer service. ShareASale will track sales made to customers who purchase products using Special Links from your Site to our Site and will be solely responsible for making available to you reports (if any) summarizing this sales activity through the ShareASale Network. The form, content and frequency of the reports may vary from time to time. You hereby agree not to disclose the information contained in these reports to any third party without prior written consent from Field Company.
3. Commission. We will pay you a sale commission on certain product sales to customers as provided in Section 2, provided the sale is within the tracking gap specified by us from time to time on the ShareASale Network (“Tracking Gap”). For a product sale to be eligible to earn a sale commission, the customer must follow a Special Link from your Site to our Site, select and purchase the product using our online ordering system, accept delivery of the product at the shipping destination, and remit full payment to us by the Tracking Gap ("Qualifying Purchase"). We may not, however, pay sale commission or other fees on any products that are subsequently purchased after the customer has re-entered the Field Company Site other than through a Special Link from your Site, even if the customer previously followed a Special Link from your Site to the Field Company Site. We may not pay a sale commission if we are unable to verify the referring Traffic Source via ShareASale network.
For you to be eligible to earn a lead commission (if applicable), we must have specified a lead commission for our Program on the ShareASale Network which is applicable to you, the customer must follow a Special Link from your Site to our Site, and complete the designated form (or other field) required.
You may not purchase products during sessions initiated through the Special Links on your Site for your own use, resale, or commercial use of any kind, or complete designated forms or other fields the subject of a lead commission.
4. Commission. You agree and acknowledge that the commission you earn pursuant to Section 3 will be in amounts established by us and posted on the ShareASale Network, unless we have agreed in writing that a different commission shall apply to you. The relevant commission specified on the ShareASale Site is incorporated into this Agreement by reference. We reserve the right to modify the commission at any time in our sole discretion upon prior notice to you.
The sale commission shall be calculated as a percentage of "qualifying revenues," which are revenues derived by us from Qualifying Purchases, excluding revenues derived from and costs associated with shipping, handling, gift-wrapping, taxes, service charges, credit card processing fees, bad debt and promotional discounts as advertised.
5. Commission Payment. Commissions will be paid through the ShareASale Site subject to the terms of our Merchant Services Agreement with ShareASale (as amended from time to time). The Merchant Services Agreement currently specifies that commissions will be paid monthly, on the 20th of each month, provided the Affiliate’s account balance is equal to or greater than $50 for the previous months transactions. If a product that generated a commission is returned or order cancelled by a customer, we may reverse a commission or deduct the corresponding commission from your next monthly payment. If there is no subsequent payment, we reserve the right to send you a bill for the returned product commission (which you agree to pay on demand).
6. Policies and Pricing. Customers who buy products through this Program will be deemed to be our customers. Accordingly, all Field Company rules, policies and operating procedures concerning customer orders, customer service, and product sales will apply to those customers. We may change our policies and operating procedures at any time. For example, we will determine the prices to be charged for products sold under this Program in accordance with our own pricing policies. Product prices and availability may vary from time to time. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to present accurate information, but we cannot guarantee the availability or price of any particular product.
