Program Terms
TERMS AND POLICIES
By participating in the Shareasale.com Affiliate Program (“Program”), you agree with the terms and policies set forth in the agreement (“Agreement”) below. Please read the entire Agreement. It is a legal agreement between you and CBD Pillow. By submitting the online application, you are agreeing that you have read and understand the terms and policies of this Agreement, and that, if CBD Pillow accepts your application, you agree to be legally responsible for each and every term and policy.
Your participation in the Program is solely for the purpose of legally advertising CBD Pillow to receive a commission on products purchased by your referrals. This Agreement begins when CBD Pillow accepts you into the Program and will end when your agreement is terminated.
CBD Pillow may change the Program or this Agreement at any time without notice. If any change to the Program or the Agreement is unacceptable to you, your only choice is to terminate your participation. Your continuing participation in the Program will constitute your acceptance of any change.
You or CBD Pillow may suspend or terminate your participation in the Program at any time for any reason. You are only eligible to earn commissions while you are participating in the Program in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Referrals
CBD Pillow will attribute referrals to you based on a tracking code embedded in your affiliate links.
CBD Pillow uses the Shareasale.com affiliate tracking system owned by Shareasale.com Inc. When a referral clicks through your affiliate link, Shareasale.com sets a cookie in the browser that contains your tracking code. Shareasale.com also tracks other information, such as the IP address of the referral, in its database along with your tracking code. When the referral decides to buy a product at CBD Pillow, a script will look for the cookie, or try to match the IP address, or use similar technology to identify you and award the commission. Referrals from your affiliate link may make a purchase later in time and CBD Pillow will still award the commission if the cookie is still present in the browser or the IP address still matches one logged in the database.
A transaction may be deemed to be resulting directly from an affiliate link tracked by Shareasale.com from your website to the CBD Pillow website if:
(i) such purchase is made during the time period set forth by us through the Shareasale.com Network after the customer has initially entered our website through your tracked affiliate link ("Revenue Share Time"). After the Revenue Share Time, we will not pay referral fees on any products that are added to a customer's shopping cart after the customer has re-entered our website (other than through an affiliate link from your website), even if the customer previously followed a link from your website to our website.
(ii) your tracked affiliate link is the most recent referral to the CBD Pillow website prior to such purchase among all marketing channels tracked by us. If we are able to track a referral from another marketing channel (e.g., another affiliate, comparison shopping engine, paid search, banner advertisement or any other trackable marketing channel) that is more recent than your affiliate link click, then the resulting purchase will be deemed not to be directly resulting from your tracked affiliate link.
All determinations of qualifying affiliate clicks and whether a referral fee is payable will be made solely by us and Shareasale.com and will be final and binding on you. CBD Pillow reserves the right to refuse service to any referral for any reason.
Commissions
CBD Pillow will pay you a commission on products purchased by your referrals according to the designated payment schedule. CBD Pillow reserves the right to increase or decrease commission rates from time to time as it sees fit. There is no maximum commission limit.
CBD Pillow uses the Shareasale.com affiliate tracking system owned by Shareasale.com Inc. to tabulate and track sales and commission payments due to our affiliates after the tracking process and purchases are completed. Through the Shareasale.com website, you will have access to information we use to determine commissions we owe you.
If a referral returns a product or if the referral requests a chargeback on the purchase, you will not receive a commission. CBD Pillow returns all money to the referral, so you must also return your portion of the sale. Because of the 30-day return period for all CBD Pillow products, and because of periodic processing, CBD Pillow may hold your commission payout for a period of up to 60 days, but may be longer due to unforeseen circumstances. Most commissions are processed within 45 days.
For purposes of this Agreement, "commission" means all cash consideration (not including any portion of payment made through the redemption of coupons or credits, or the purchase of gift certificates or gift cards) from merchandise sold in a transaction resulting directly from a Qualifying Link tracked by Shareasale.com from your website to the CBD Pillow Website in accordance with this Agreement, where the customer purchases such merchandise, less all taxes, shipping and handling charges, gift wrapping and other value-added service charges, returns and chargebacks. You acknowledge and agree that we will not be obligated to pay any revenue share unless we actually ship the applicable order and receive full payment for such order.
CBD Pillow will send payment for the commission earned, less any taxes or other amounts that we may be required by law to withhold. No interest will be paid on any such amount held by us. If a commission payment is made hereunder and relates to merchandise that is later returned by the customer after the commission has been issued, the applicable commission may be deducted from the next applicable payment hereunder. If any portion of such commission cannot be recovered through a deduction, we will invoice you for such amount and you agree to pay this amount within 30 days after receipt of such invoice. Upon termination of this Agreement, Shareasale.com will send, or cause to be sent, payment for the total amount of commission then owed to you as of the termination date. The final commission payment may be withheld by us for a reasonable period of time to ensure that the correct amount is paid after making any adjustments that may be required, including, but not limited to, adjustments for returns.
We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change, modify, add or remove portions of this commission schedule at any time without notice.
CBD Pillow products are to be exclusively sold in the United States and cannot be sold internationally.
Promotion Codes & Coupons
You may not, without our prior written consent, utilize any promotion, promotion code, coupon, or other promotional opportunity that is not specifically authorized for CBD Pillow’s Affiliate Program and explicitly authorized for your use.
Keep in mind, we do not work with coupon sites. We work with content sites only. You will forfeit all coupon site commissions and all future commission will be set to 0%, if you or a sub-affiliate promotes CBD Pillow through a coupon site.
Reversals
CBD Pillow reserves the right to reverse orders due to order cancellations, duplicate tracking, returns, disputed charges, and program violations as outlined in these terms and policies.
Additionally, if we ask you for clarification or more information on any orders that we suspect may be in violation of our terms and policies, we expect that you will respond in a timely and honest manner. Below are violations of our communications policy.
1) You are not forthcoming, you are intentionally vague, or you are found to be lying.
2) You are not responsive within a reasonable time period and after multiple attempts to make contact using the information listed in your network profile.
3) You cannot substantiate or validate the source of your traffic to our program with clear and demonstrable proof.
If any of the above apply, then we reserve the absolute right to suspend you from our Affiliate Program, reverse orders, modify payouts, set your commission to 0%, or immediately terminate your participation in our Affiliate Program. We know that many violations are a result of automated processes; however, it is incumbent upon each affiliate to ensure that it has the appropriate checks and balances in place to address such issues proactively and to adhere to the terms and policies of this Agreement.
Assets
The tools, products, and creative assets (collectively “Assets”) that CBD Pillow provides to you include valuable information vital to the success of the Program, including a tracking code that CBD Pillow uses to attribute referrals to you.

You also acknowledge and agree that:
1) You will not, and will not assist any third party to, now or in the future, (i) take any action challenging or otherwise inconsistent with our ownership of, or other right in CBD Pillow content, or (ii) register or attempt to register any trademark, service mark, logo, trade name, domain name, or similar business identifier, that contains any name, trademark, service mark, logo, trade name or other content or material owned or controlled by us or any derivation, including misspellings, thereof. All goodwill and benefits accruing from the use of CBD Pillow assets will automatically vest in us. You agree to cooperate with us and to take any additional actions reasonably requested by us to effect, perfect or confirm our rights, title and interest in any CBD Pillow content.
2) You will not publish or otherwise distribute any other advertising materials that reference CBD Pillow unless CBD Pillow gives prior written consent to the distribution of such materials.
3) You will not, except as specifically provided for in this Agreement (i) copy or obtain any images or other content relating to CBD Pillow from the CBD Pillow Website or elsewhere, except through Shareasale.com, (ii) modify, adapt, translate or create derivative works based on CBD Pillow Content, (iii) remove, erase, or tamper with any copyright or other proprietary notices in any copy of any of CBD Pillow’s Content, (iv) sell, market, license, sublicense, distribute, disclose or otherwise grant to any person or entity any right or interest in CBD Pillow’s Content, (v) take any action which may cause deception, confusion or otherwise dilutes the quality of CBD Pillow’s Content or the goodwill associated therewith, or (vi) use CBD Pillow’s Content in any manner which disparages or portrays CBD Pillow in a false, competitively adverse or poor light.
If you fail to comply with any of our restrictions, at our sole discretion, you may forfeit any commissions or other payments otherwise earned by you during the period in which you are not in compliance, and we may withdraw you from our affiliate program with no notice.
