This Agreement contains the complete terms and conditions that apply to your participation in the FunctionalFermenting.org Web Affiliate Program (the "Program"). As used in this Agreement, "we" means FunctionalFermenting.org and "you" means the applicant. By "site" and "website" we mean a World Wide Web site on the Internet, and refers to FunctionalFermenting.org or to any site from which you will link to our site (and which you identify in your Program Application).

Enrollment in the Program

Ensure that your site meets our general guidelines. We do not allow affiliate linking on sites that:

• Promote sexually explicit materials
• Promote violence, promote discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age
• Promote illegal activities or otherwise violate intellectual property rights
• Engage in Unsolicited Bulk Emailing (also known as spam)

By participating in the Program you agree that you will not engage in any such activities. You should also note that if we later determine (in our sole discretion) your site to be unsuitable for the Program, we may terminate this Agreement.

Enroll by creating an account (or log in) and click the "Become and Affiiate" link in the footer on this website, and complete the affiliate account information including your Tax ID (or SSN). This is required for payout of affiliate earnings. If you do not reside in the USA, please contact us.

Links on Your Site

After you have created an account, we will provide you with several tracking links to choose from and add to your site. (Located in My Account)

Popular options include:

• Link to our home page.
• Link to a specific store category page or single product page. (Be prepared to review these links periodically as updates to the site(s) may break your links).
• Linking from your email outreach campaign.
• Linking from a social media site or blog.

We will provide you with guidelines in this Agreement.

To permit accurate tracking, reporting, and referral fee accrual, we will provide you with special "tagged" link formats to be used in all links between your site and our site (“Special Links”). You must ensure that each of the links functions properly.

Qualifying orders must originate from a Special Link.
You will earn referral fees only if the order originates through Special Links; we will NOT be liable to you with respect to any failure to use Special Links, including such failure that may result in a reduction of amounts that would otherwise be paid to you.

You acknowledge that, by participating in the Program and placing any of the above links within your site, we may receive information from or about visitors to your site. Your participation in the Program constitutes your specific and unconditional consent to and authorization for our use of such information, consistent with the policies and procedures set forth in FermentingSeminar.org’s Privacy Notice.

In addition, you acknowledge that we may monitor your site for the purpose of ensuring the quality and reliability of Special Links on your site (for example, to detect links that are broken or non-functional, links to products that are out of stock or otherwise unavailable, etc.).

Further, you agree that you will; (a) not sell, redistribute, sub-license or transfer any FermentingSeminar.org content; and (b) promptly delete any content that is no longer displayed on the FermentingSeminar.org site or that we notify you is no longer available for your use.

Order Processing, Fulfillment, Reporting
We will process 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 requirements that we may establish periodically. 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. We will track sales made to customers who purchase Products using Special Links and will make available to you reports summarizing this sales activity. The form, content, and frequency of the reports may vary from time to time and at our discretion.

Referral Fees
We will pay you referral fees on qualifying product sales made on our Site; limitations listed below. For a sale to be eligible to earn a referral fee the customer must click-through a Special Link from your site to our site and complete their purchase within 30 days; however, a click-through from a Special Link on another affiliate site will replace your link record on their computer (cookie/cache). If a customer clears their cookies/cache and does not re-click your Special Link, then the affiliate link will be broken, and no referral fees will be tracked or paid.

Referral fees will not be paid on purchases through wholesale accounts, or on wholesale purchases made in any way, nor can they be retroactive to any prior purchases, or applied because of tracking interruptions as detailed above. We are dependent on Volusion, Inc. for tracking of purchases through affiliate links, and cannot make adjustments due to errors beyond our control. Under special circumstances, entirely and at our sole discretion, we may make an exception to this policy.

Referral Fee Schedule
You will earn referral fees based on Qualifying Revenues according to referral fee schedules to be established by us from time to time. Currently, referral fees are structured at 3% of purchase price.

You may not: (a) in any way modify, redirect, suppress, or substitute the operation of any button, link, or other interactive feature of our site; (b) take any action that could reasonably cause any customer confusion as to our relationship with you, or as to the site on which any functions or transactions (e.g., search, order, browse, and so on) are occurring; (c) attempt to intercept or re-direct (including, without limitation, via user-installed software) traffic from or on, or divert referral fees from, any web site that participates in the Program; or (d) seek to purchase or register any keywords, search terms or other identifiers that include the words FermentingSeminar.org or variations thereof for use in any search engine, portal, sponsored advertising service or other search or referral service.
If we determine, in our sole discretion, that you have engaged in any of the foregoing activities, we may (without limiting any other rights or remedies available to us) withhold any referral fees otherwise payable to you under this Agreement and/or terminate this Agreement.

Referral Fee Payment
We will pay you referral fees on a monthly basis. Approximately 30 days following the end of each month, we will send you a check for the referral fees earned through the end of that month.

Policies and Pricing
Customers who buy products through this Program will be deemed to be customers of FermentingSeminar.org. Accordingly, all FermentingSeminar.org rules, policies, and operating procedures concerning customer orders, customer service, product sales, and privacy 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.

We reserve all of our rights in the graphic image and text, any other images, our trade names and trademarks, and all other intellectual property rights. Your use of any images used to represent us must meet with our approval, and we may revoke your license at any time by giving you written notice via email contact.
