Affiliate Links

You may use graphic and text links both on your Web Site and in emails. The site may also be advertised "offline" in classified ads, magazines, and newpapers. You may use the graphics and text provided to you by us, or you may create your own as long as they are approved by us first.

Affiliate Tracking

When a web visitor clicks through your affiliate link, a cookie is set in their browser that contains your affiliate username. Also, their IP address is tracked in our database along with your affiliate name. When this person decides to buy a product, the script will look for this cookie and/or try to match their IP address to identify the affiliate who will be awarded the commission. Visitors sent through your affiliate link may make a purchase later in time and the commission will still be awarded if the cookie is present in their browser and/or the are using the same IP address as the one logged in the database.

Terms of the agreement

These terms will begin upon your signup with the Affiliate Program and will end when your Affiliate Account is terminated. The terms of this agreement may be modified by us at any time. If any modification to the terms is unnacceptable to you, your only choice is to terminate your Affiliate Account. Your continuing participation in the program will constitute your acceptance of any change.
