Affiliate Program links must direct users to the AmzChart Website

2.4.1 User must be able to see coupon/deal/savings information and details before an affiliate cookie is set (i.e. “click here to see coupons and open a window to the AmzChart website” is NOT allowed).

2.4.2 Affiliate sites may not have “Click for (or to see) Deal/Coupon” or any variation, when there are no coupons or deals available, and the click opens the AmzChart Website or sets a cookie. Affiliates with such text will be removed from the program immediately.

Here you will have an option to review the details of our Affiliate Program including our promotional materials, such as affiliate links to web pages within the AmzChart Website and banner creatives.

For example if AmzChart’ pricing policy changes, it will be up to the Affiliate to update this information. We may monitor your site as we feel necessary to make sure that it is up-to-date and to notify you of any changes that we feel should enhance your performance.

2) marketing of goods and services;

3. AmzChart Rights and Obligations

3.1. We reserve the right to monitor your site at any time to determine whether you are following these Terms and Conditions. We may inform you of any changes to your site that we feel you should make, or to ensure that your affiliate links to the AmzChart Website are placed appropriately and to notify you of any other changes that we feel should be made. Failure to make the changes to your site that we feel are necessary within reasonable time (no longer than 30 days) constitutes a material breach of this Affiliate Agreement.

3.2. AmzChart reserves the right to terminate your participation in the Affiliate Program immediately and without prior notice to you if you commit fraud or abuse this Affiliate Program in any way (including material breaches of section 2.4 of this Affiliate Agreement). If such fraud or abuse is detected, AmzChart shall not be liable to you for any Commissions for any fraudulent sales/sales based on abuse.

3.3. These Terms and Conditions will begin to apply to you upon our acceptance of your Affiliate application, and their application will continue indefinitely unless terminated hereunder.

Continued participation in the Affiliate Program will indicate your agreement to the changes and your adherence to any modified Terms and Conditions.

6. Commission Payment

6.1. Commissions are earned from authorized referrals that generate purchases via your affiliate links.

6.2. Commission amounts per product/service sold may be changed by AmzChart at any time. This information is available to you in the Affiliate Dashboard. You are solely responsible for determining if the Commission amount for an affiliate link you have placed on your website has changed or been discontinued.

6.3. No Commission payment shall be made unless the total accrued unpaid commissions exceed the minimum threshold of $50. The commission due are calculated in accordance with the statistics and balance that are collected, calculated, and displayed on the Affiliate Dashboard. The only valid statistics used for determining Commissions will be those displayed in the Affiliate Dashboard. When the commission is up to the conditions for withdrawal, you can only withdraw after 30 days.

6.4. If the buyer does not request a refund within the time frame, and the commission is not generated by self-recommendation and does not violate any other terms of this franchise agreement, the commission will be paid normally.

6.5. Affiliate is responsible for any and all charges, fees, taxes, exchange rates, surcharges and other expenses arising out of the Affiliate relationship with AmzChart including those incurred in order to receive affiliate payments.

6.6.  Available payment options for Commissions are described in the Affiliate Dashboard, any other payment options may be declined for use at our discretion. Our primary payout option is PayPal. Please email us at service@inbox.amzchart.com if there is any problem.

6.7. Payments will only be sent for affiliate purchases that have been successfully completed. Transactions that result in chargebacks or refunds will be void.

7. Affiliate Promotional Materials

7.1. You are free to promote what you deem appropriate on your own website(s), but any promotion that mentions AmzChart and any associated trademarks may be perceived by the press or the public as a joint effort. You should therefore note that certain forms of advertising are always prohibited by AmzChart. Any promotions by Affiliates should never contravene promotional laws in their location.

Advertising commonly known as “spamming” is inappropriate and unacceptable to us and constitutes a material breach of this Affiliate Agreement. Other prohibited forms of advertising include the use of unsolicited commercial email (UCE), postings to non-commercial newsgroups and cross-posting to multiple newsgroups at once. Additionally, you may not advertise in any way that effectively hides or misrepresents your own identity, your domain name, or your email address. You may use emails or other messages to customers to promote AmzChart’ services if the recipient is already a customer or subscriber of your services or website, and recipients have the option to remove themselves from future mailings and such emails or other messages are otherwise sent in compliance with the laws applicable to them.

In any direct marketing messages sent by the Affiliate, the Affiliate must identify itself and its contact details. Where the Affiliate processes personal data relating to identified or identifiable individuals, the Affiliate undertakes to provide to data subjects any information required in the applicable data protection legislation (including but not limited to information referred to in Articles 13 and 14 of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679). The Affiliate shall especially provide to the data subjects information on how to exercise their rights under the applicable data protection legislation.

Also, you may only post to newsgroups to promote AmzChart’ subscription if the news group specifically welcomes commercial messages. You must always clearly represent yourself and your websites as independent from AmzChart.

7.2. Affiliates that exclusively bid in their pay-per-click campaigns on keywords such as AmzChart.com, AmzChart, AmzChart coupons, AmzChart Discounts, super metrics, www.AmzChart, www.AmzChart.com, Data Grabber and/or any misspellings or similar alterations of these – be it separately or in a combination with any other keywords – and do not direct the traffic from such campaigns to their own website prior to redirecting it to our website, will be considered to be in material breach of the Affiliate Agreement. Using “doorway pages” in such instances or overall as part of AmzChart promotional activities is also strictly prohibited.

7.3. Affiliate shall not transmit any so-called “interstitials,” “Parasiteware,” “Parasitic Marketing,” “Shopping Assistance Application,” “Toolbar Installations and/or Add-ons,” “Shopping Wallets” or “deceptive pop-ups and/or pop-unders” to consumers from the time the consumer clicks on a qualifying link until such time as the consumer has fully exited the AmzChart Website (i.e., no page from our site or any AmzChart’ content or branding is visible on the end-user’s screen). As used herein a. “Parasiteware” and “Parasitic Marketing” shall mean an application that

(a) through accidental or direct intent causes the overwriting of affiliate and non-affiliate commission tracking cookies through any other means than a customer initiated click on a qualifying link on a web page or email;

(b) intercepts searches to redirect traffic through an installed software, thereby causing, pop ups, commission tracking cookies to be put in place or other commission tracking cookies to be overwritten where a user would under normal circumstances have arrived at the same destination through the results given Internet search and directory engines (services referred here as examples include, but are not limited to, Google, MSN, Yahoo, Overture, AltaVista, Hotbot);

(c) set commission tracking cookies through loading of AmzChart site in IFrames, hidden links and automatic pop ups that open AmzChart.com’s site;

(d) targets text on websites, other than those sites 100% owned by the application owner, for the purpose of contextual marketing; or

(e) removes, replaces or blocks the visibility of Affiliate banners with any other banners, other than those that are on websites 100% owned by the owner of the application.

For instance, whether or not the Affiliate targets any identified or identifiable natural persons as a part of its marketing efforts, or otherwise processes personal data for affiliate marketing purposes, is solely determined by the Affiliate. As a consequence, the Affiliate serves as a data controller with regard to any personal data processed by it for the purpose of the conclusion and performance of this Affiliate Agreement.
