This Affiliate Program Agreement (“Agreement”) is used by An Acre in the City (“Company”) to allow individuals or businesses to promote Company’s eligible products, programs, workshops, memberships, and other offers in exchange for an affiliate commission on qualifying sales.
This Agreement is between Company and the individual or business agreeing to these terms in order to participate in the An Acre in the City Affiliate Program (“Affiliate”).
By joining or participating in the Affiliate Program, Affiliate agrees to the following terms and conditions.
Promotion
Affiliate may promote Company’s eligible products and offers using the unique affiliate links provided by Company, subject to the terms of this Agreement and any additional guidelines or promotional instructions provided by Company.
Affiliate agrees to promote Company and its offers honestly and with integrity and may not make false, misleading, or deceptive statements to generate sales.
Affiliate agrees to clearly and conspicuously disclose their affiliate relationship when promoting Company’s products and offers and to comply with applicable Federal Trade Commission (FTC) disclosure requirements and other applicable laws.
Affiliate may not represent themselves as an employee, agent, or official representative of An Acre in the City.
Compensation
Company will provide Affiliate with a unique tracking link to promote eligible Company products and offers.
Company will pay Affiliate a commission (“Commission”) for each qualifying sale properly tracked and attributed to Affiliate’s unique link through Company’s affiliate tracking system.
Commission rates vary by product or promotion and generally range from 25%–50%. The applicable Commission rate will be communicated to Affiliate for each eligible product, program, or promotion.
Affiliate understands that Commissions are paid only on sales properly tracked through Company’s affiliate system and associated with Affiliate’s unique link.
Company may update Commission rates at any time. Any changes will apply to qualifying sales occurring after the new Commission rate becomes effective and will not reduce Commissions already earned on qualifying sales.
Affiliate may not earn Commissions on purchases made through their own affiliate link.
Excluded Products and Offers
Affiliate Commissions do not apply to joint venture products, collaborative offers, or other products or promotions specifically excluded from the Affiliate Program unless otherwise expressly stated by Company.
Promoting an excluded product or offer does not entitle Affiliate to a Commission.
Refund Period
Company may provide customers with a designated refund period for certain products or offers.
Affiliate is not entitled to a Commission on refunded or canceled sales. Company may therefore hold Affiliate payments until the applicable refund period has expired.
Chargebacks
Affiliate agrees that Company has the right to recover or deduct from future Affiliate earnings any Commission previously paid on a transaction that is later refunded, disputed, reversed, or subject to a chargeback.
Payouts
Company will pay eligible Affiliate Commissions via PayPal on a NET-30 basis, meaning eligible Commissions are generally paid approximately 30 days after the end of the month in which they were earned, subject to any applicable refund period.
Affiliate is responsible for providing Company with an accurate PayPal email address and maintaining a PayPal account capable of receiving payments.
There is no minimum payout threshold.
If Affiliate earns a Commission on a product or offer purchased through an installment agreement or payment plan, Company will generally pay Affiliate’s Commission in installments proportional to the payments successfully received from the customer.
For example, if Affiliate earns a 40% Commission on a $300 purchase paid in three equal installments, Affiliate would receive the $120 total Commission in three installments of $40 as the customer’s payments are successfully received.
Company may, at its sole discretion, choose to pay the Commission in one lump sum instead.
Promotion Materials
Company may provide Affiliate with graphics, photographs, email copy, social media copy, promotional language, templates, and other materials (“Materials”) to assist Affiliate in promoting eligible products and offers.
Materials may contain designs, photographs, trademarks, branding, or other intellectual property belonging to Company.
Company grants Affiliate a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use these Materials solely for the purpose of promoting eligible Company products and offers under this Agreement.
Affiliate may not sell, redistribute, claim ownership of, or use Company’s Materials for purposes unrelated to promoting Company without written permission.
Cancellation
Either Company or Affiliate may end participation in the Affiliate Program at any time.
Company may immediately suspend or terminate an Affiliate for violating this Agreement, engaging in fraudulent or misleading promotional practices, failing to comply with applicable disclosure requirements, or engaging in conduct Company reasonably believes may harm Company, its customers, or its reputation.
Upon cancellation or termination, Affiliate agrees to discontinue use of Company’s affiliate links and promotional Materials.
Affiliate will remain eligible for valid Commissions earned before termination unless those Commissions resulted from activity that violated this Agreement.
Events Outside Our Control
Company will not be liable or responsible to Affiliate, nor considered to have breached this Agreement, for any failure or delay in fulfilling its obligations when that failure or delay results from circumstances beyond Company’s reasonable control.
Such circumstances may include, but are not limited to, natural disasters, fire, flood, severe weather, illness, death, governmental actions, war, civil unrest, epidemics, labor disputes, internet or telecommunications failures, power outages, or failures of third-party platforms or service providers.
Independent Contractor
Nothing in this Agreement creates a partnership, joint venture, employment, or agency relationship between Company and Affiliate.
Affiliate participates in the Affiliate Program as an independent contractor and is responsible for reporting and paying any taxes associated with Commissions received through the Affiliate Program.
Severability
If any provision of this Agreement is declared invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be considered removed or limited to the minimum extent necessary. All remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AFFILIATE AGREES THAT COMPANY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO AFFILIATE’S PARTICIPATION IN THE AFFILIATE PROGRAM.
COMPANY DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT PARTICIPATION IN THE AFFILIATE PROGRAM WILL RESULT IN ANY PARTICULAR NUMBER OF SALES, COMMISSIONS, REVENUE, OR OTHER RESULTS.
Assignment
Affiliate may not assign or transfer this Agreement or their participation in the Affiliate Program without the express written consent of Company.
Modification
Company may modify the terms of this Agreement or the Affiliate Program at any time.
Changes will be reflected on this page by updating the “Last Updated” date. Company may also notify active Affiliates of material changes by email.
Continued participation in the Affiliate Program after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the updated Agreement.
Indemnification
Affiliate agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Company and its owners, employees, contractors, agents, successors, and assigns from claims, losses, liabilities, costs, damages, and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising from or related to Affiliate’s promotion of Company, participation in the Affiliate Program, violation of this Agreement, or violation of applicable laws, rules, or regulations.
Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
This Agreement will be governed by and interpreted according to the laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
The parties agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute arising from or relating to this Agreement informally and in good faith.
If the dispute cannot be resolved informally, any legal action arising from or relating to this Agreement will be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in Macomb County, Michigan, and the parties consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.
Waiver
No failure by Company to enforce any provision of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of that provision or Company’s right to enforce it in the future.
Any waiver applies only to the specific circumstance for which it was provided.
Section Headings
All section headings in this Agreement are provided for convenience only and will not control or affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision.
Entire Agreement
This Agreement contains the entire understanding between Company and Affiliate regarding participation in the Affiliate Program and supersedes prior written or oral agreements or understandings regarding the Affiliate Program.
Additional terms or promotional guidelines provided by Company for a specific product, launch, or promotion will also apply to Affiliate’s participation in that promotion.
