Connstore.de Affiliate Program Terms of Use
Agreement

By registering as an affiliate in the Connstore.de Affiliate Program (“Program”), you agree to the following terms and conditions (“Terms of Use”).

Connstore.de reserves the right to update and change the Terms of Use from time to time without notice. New features that expand or enhance the existing program – including the introduction of new tools and resources – are subject to the Terms of Use. Continued use of the program after such changes shall be deemed acceptance of such changes.

Violation of any of the terms below will result in termination of your account and forfeiture of any outstanding affiliate commission payments earned during the violation. You agree to use the Affiliate Program at your own risk.

Account conditions

• You must be at least 18 years old to participate in this program.
• You must be a natural person. Accounts registered by “bots” or other automated methods are not permitted.
• You must provide your full legal name, a valid e-mail address and any other information requested to complete the registration process.
• Your login may only be used by one person – a single login shared by several people is not permitted.
• You are responsible for the security of your account and password. Connstore.de will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this security obligation.
• You are responsible for all content and activities that occur under your account.
• A person or legal entity may not have more than one account.
• You may not use the Affiliate Program for any illegal or unauthorized purpose. In particular, you may not violate any laws in your jurisdiction (including, but not limited to, copyright laws) when using the Service.
• You may not use the affiliate program to earn money with your own Connstore.de product accounts.

Links/graphics on your website, in your e-mails or other communications

Once you have signed up for the affiliate program, you will be assigned a unique affiliate code. You are permitted to place links, banners or other graphics provided by us with your affiliate code on your website, in your emails or in other communications. We will provide you with guidelines, link styles and graphic templates to use when linking to Connstore.co.uk. We reserve the right to change the design of the graphics at any time without notice, but will not change the dimensions of the images without notice.

To enable accurate tracking, reporting and crediting of referral fees, we provide you with special link formats that must be used in all links between your website and Connstore.co.uk. You must ensure that all links between your website and Connstore.co.uk use these special link formats properly. Links to Connstore.co.uk that are placed on your website in accordance with this Agreement and that correctly use these special link formats will be referred to as “Special Links”. You will only receive referral fees for sales of a Connstore.co.uk product made directly through Special Links; we will not be liable if you or someone you refer has not used Special Links or has mistyped your affiliate code, even if this results in a reduction in the amounts otherwise due to you.

Affiliate links should refer to the page of the advertised product.

Referral fees/commissions and payment

For a product sale to be considered eligible to receive a referral fee, the customer must be directed to https://connstore.de via a special link from your website, email or other communication and complete an order for a product in that session.

We only pay commissions for links that are automatically tracked and reported by our systems. We do not pay commissions if someone claims to have made a purchase or entered a referral code that has not been tracked by our system. We can only pay commissions on transactions generated through properly formatted specialty links that have been automatically tracked by our systems.

We reserve the right to disqualify commissions obtained through fraudulent, illegal or overly aggressive or questionable sales or marketing methods.

Payments will not begin until you have earned more than $20 in affiliate earnings. If your affiliate account never exceeds the $20 threshold, your commissions will not be realized or paid out. We are only obligated to pay accounts that have exceeded this threshold.

Identification as Connstore.de Affiliate

You may not issue a press release regarding this Agreement or your participation in the Program; such action may result in your termination from the Program. In addition, you may not in any way misrepresent or embellish the relationship between us and you, claim that you developed our products, say that you are part of Connstore.co.uk, or express or imply any relationship or affiliation between us and you or any other person or entity, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement (including expressly or impliedly claiming that we support, sponsor, endorse or financially support a charity or other cause).

You may not purchase products through your affiliate links for your own use. Such purchases may (at our sole discretion) result in the withholding of referral fees and/or termination of this Agreement.

Payment plan

If your current affiliate earnings are over $20, you will receive a monthly payment. If you have earned less than $20 since the last payment, the payment will be made the following month after you have exceeded the threshold.

Customer concept

Customers who purchase products through this program are considered our customers. Accordingly, all of our rules, policies and operating procedures regarding customer orders, customer service and product sales apply to those customers. We may change our policies and operating procedures at any time. For example, we determine the prices charged for products sold under this Program in accordance with our own pricing policies. Product prices and availability may change from time to time. Because price changes may affect the products you list on your website, you should not display product prices on your website. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide accurate information, but we cannot guarantee the availability or price of any particular product.

Your responsibilities

You are solely responsible for the development, operation and maintenance of your website and for all materials that appear on your website. For example, you are solely responsible for:

• The technical operation of your website and all associated devices.
• Ensure that the display of specialty links on your website does not violate any agreements between you and third parties (including any restrictions or requirements of a third party hosting your website).
• The accuracy, truth and appropriateness of the materials published on your website (including any product-related materials and any information you provide in connection with special links).
• Ensure that the materials published on your website do not infringe or violate the rights of any third party (including, for example, copyright, trademark, privacy or other personal or proprietary rights).
• Ensure that the materials published on your website are not defamatory or otherwise unlawful.
• Ensure that your website accurately and appropriately discloses, whether through a privacy policy or otherwise, how you collect, use, store and share information collected from visitors, including information that third parties (including advertisers) may provide content and/or advertising, collect information directly from visitors, and may place or recognize cookies on their browsers.

Compliance with the law

As a condition of your participation in the Program, you agree that during your participation in the Program you will comply with all laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, licenses, permits, judgments, rulings or other requirements of any governmental authority having jurisdiction over you, whether such laws are already in effect or become effective during your participation in the Program. Notwithstanding this obligation, you agree that you will comply with all applicable laws (federal, state or otherwise) that regulate email marketing, including but not limited to the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 and all other anti-spam laws.

Duration of the agreement and the program

The term of this Agreement begins when we accept your application to the Program and ends when it is terminated by either party. You or we may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by written notice to the other party. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, you must immediately cease using all links to https://connstore.de and remove them from your website, as well as all of our trademarks, branding, logos and other materials provided to you by us in connection with the Program.

Termination

Connstore.co.uk reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Program, or any other Connstore.co.uk service, for any reason at any time. Such termination of the Service will result in the deactivation or deletion of your account or access to your account and the forfeiture and relinquishment of all potential or pending commissions in your account if they were earned through fraudulent, illegal, or overly aggressive or questionable sales or marketing methods. Connstore.co.uk reserves the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time.

Relationship of the parties

You and we are independent contractors, and nothing in this Agreement creates any partnership, joint venture, agency, franchise, distribution or employment relationship between the parties. You have no authority to make or accept offers on our behalf. You may not make any statement, whether on your website or otherwise, that would reasonably imply anything other than as set forth in this section.

Limitations of liability

We will not be liable for any indirect, special or consequential damages (including any loss of revenue, profits or data) arising in connection with this Agreement or the Program, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. In addition, our total liability in connection with this Agreement and the Program shall not exceed the total amount of Referral Fees paid or to be paid to you under this Agreement.

Exclusions of liability

We make no warranties or representations, express or implied, with respect to the Program or any products sold through the Program (including, but not limited to, warranties of fitness, merchantability, non-infringement or other implied warranties arising from performance, course of dealing or usage of trade). In addition, we do not warrant that the operation of Connstore.de will be uninterrupted or error-free, and we will not be liable for the consequences of any interruptions or errors.

Independent audit

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREE TO ALL OF ITS TERMS. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WE MAY AT ANY TIME (DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY) SOLICIT CUSTOMER REFERRALS UNDER TERMS THAT DIFFER FROM THOSE SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT OR OPERATE WEBSITES THAT ARE SIMILAR TO OR COMPETE WITH YOUR WEBSITE. YOU HAVE INDEPENDENTLY EVALUATED THE BENEFITS OF PARTICIPATING IN THE PROGRAM AND ARE NOT RELYING ON ANY REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR STATEMENTS OTHER THAN THOSE SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.

Arbitration

Any dispute relating to this Agreement (including any actual or alleged breach thereof), any transaction or activity under this Agreement, or your relationship with us or any of our affiliates shall be submitted to confidential arbitration, except to the extent that you have in any way infringed or threatened to infringe our intellectual property rights. In such event, we may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any state or federal court (and you consent to the non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts) or other court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitration shall be conducted under the then-current rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration award shall be binding and may be enforced as a judgment in a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by law, no arbitration under this Agreement may be joined with any arbitration involving any other party to this Agreement, whether by class action or otherwise.

Miscellaneous

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the United States without reference to its choice of law provisions. You may not assign this Agreement by operation of law or otherwise without our prior written consent. Subject to this restriction, this Agreement will be binding upon and enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Our failure to enforce strict performance of any provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of the right to enforce that or any other provision at a later date.

The failure of Connstore.co.uk to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. The Terms of Service constitutes the entire agreement between you and Connstore.co.uk and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and Connstore.co.uk (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the Terms of Service).
